Team Ninja's Hiroaki Morita via Twitter revealed that after the release of Dead or Alive 6 a small team was working on Dead or Alive 7 and on small updates for the sixth entry in the fighting series.

Morita said that just before the series director Yohei Shinbori retired the team working on Dead or Alive 7 was disbanded and the game ultimately cancelled.

Once the news was shared, Morita made his Twitter profile private, however, you can still check out the tweet on the Way Back Machine here.

I haven't been into fighters since the fight night round 4 on the 360.
I don't see the appeal anymore unless you play with friends.
They need to change the formula, like having an adventure where you move forwards and meet people to fight or something.
