Following the release of Dead or Alive 6 update 1.02 a few hours ago, Koei Tecmo released the full patch notes and provided the first details about the next.
You can find the full patch notes in PDF form here, or in the gallery at the bottom of the post.
We learn that besides receiving costume patterns only for the character in use, there is quite a lot more to the patch than meets the eye. This includes a lot of gameplay balance adjustments, new quests for the DOA Quest mode, the ability to rotate characters in the Wardrobe, new entry and victory animations for Kasumi, Hitomi, Marie Rose, and Bass, and more.
Graphics have also been adjusted, and CPU workload has been reduced on base consoles and PC.
On top of that, we also get new information about the next patch (which will also come this month) via the official Twitter account.
With the next March update, we are planning to adjust costumes parts drop quantity to max 100x times even after campaign ends, and modify how they’re obtained in DOA QUEST. Lobby feature also on the way, more details coming soon. #DOA6

Looks like requests from players have been listened and the 100x maximum boost to costume drops is going to become permanent. The way they’re received in DOA Quest will also be changed. As previously announced, we’ll also get the online lobby feature.
