Does Zack has contact to aliens?



As we know, in the end of the game “Dead or Alive Xtreme Beack Volleyball, the isle “Zack Island” sinks completely into the ocean after an eruption of a volcano.

In the intro-video of DoAX's sequel, Zack and his affair Niki try to get their isle back of the ocean's ground. Well, they are using a submarine to shoot a rocket into the stratosphere. A second ago, a big UFO appears out of a portal or another dimension and shoots a mighty energy beam which has the power to pull up the whole isle.

It is really interesting, that Zack is also in contact with aliens or the so called “supernatural” in the main series of the game “Dead or Alive 5”.

With a special Taunt-Move*, Zack is able to shoot a beam directly out of his eyes into the direction of his enemy - screaming “Zack Beam!!” At first, fans thought it was costume related (Cyber-Alien-Suit). The truth is, it is available whatever he wears.




Another noticeable thing is his second “winner pose”. He falls out of nowhere from the sky, lands really clumsy and then he tries to “act cool”. Where is he coming from? Can I assume, that he was beamed down from an UFO? If I dare to use the word “logic” in a videogame, then it is supposed to be really illogical, if it wasn't a beam down out of an UFO, if we talk about that special winner pose in a closed room.

A plane, a helicopter or a ballon are completely out of the question in those cases.




To emphasize that, I wanna take a look to the prequels of the franchise. Back in DoA2, Tecmo “Team Ninja” made a fictitious contatct to the “supernatural”. If you did beat the Story Mode of Zack, you was able to get the “The Shadow Man” outfit. That outfit offered a Taunt-Move, where Zack was able to get crazy blue flames in his eyes and his thorax. This was a homage to the main character of the game “Shadow Man”, which was released in 1999.

The idea about Zack and his contact to aliens, could only be answered by the smart heads of Team Ninja. The idea is really nice – I wonder, If we will get more information about it in the future?!


I will contact Team Ninja about it!

*Taunt Move / Provocation – you are able to let your character speak within a fight, by tapping a special button.
