OH NOEZ! Well, maybe this will actually make the game sexier… you know, if you're into tan lines. I find them to be inviting. Haha. Anyway, the latest version of the Dead or Alive: Xtreme Beach Volleyball will feature the introduction of tanlines. Of course, this is the most important addition, but there will also be dancing, jetskiing, and an increase in the minigame count to five. But, back to that tanline thing. The tan line system will make lines of, I think, the last suit the girl was wearing whenever you switch to a new one. Not sure about that. I'm sure it'll required some lounging in the sun, and I'm not sure if the old tan lines go away or if they compound for a few days. Famitsu's article says that several suits worth of lines will stay visible. Certainly, if it can make Famitsu get all moe, then it's a well made system. The game is set for release later this year.
Because I am a lech, I nabbed Famitsu's pictures and put them up after the jump. I left their watermarks on because I have no shame. Haha.

Oh wow, well if someone likes to ogle these girls in midst of the game or trying to "produce" tan lines, then this is a fine addition for their viewing pleasures :D Wonder what they come up next :P

Well, I'm sure the next logical step is just to have them dance around naked, but GOOD LUCK. Itagaki, the creator of the DOA world, is a total self-loving ass.
