Basically tapping A and B on the controller will cover most actions. If none of these games suit your fancy, maybe its time to play some volley ball! The gameplay here isn’t very deep, but I found it pretty fun. I’ve noticed a couple different routes here, one is a bit easier than the other. This is a fun little mini game in which timed presses of the face buttons and top triggers will allow you to scale a huge rock. Sometimes the girls will want to go rock climbing. Swimsuits tend to malfunction during this quite often. You use the directional pad left or right to make your opponent fall out. Tug of war and butt battle play basically the same way. A slight tap will move you one square while holding down a button will move you two squares. These will be marked with the various face buttons on the controller. Pool hopping will have you jumping on square floats from one end of the pool to the other.

Events at the pool include pool hopping, tug of war and butt battle. I’ll go over some of activities in more detail, since this is basically one big mini-game collection and these are the meat of the content. Losing a lot may result in your partner abandoning you as well, which never helps your vacation be successful. Winning or losing at activities causes your girl’s satisfaction to increase, of course this goes up a lot more for winning. You can buy tickets to use in owner mode from the Shop, but honestly there is no need to do since it’s not hard to build up cash quickly. I would recommend saving most of your owner cash to spend in the owner store, since this is where you can get some of the best swimsuits. It’s important to remember the owner cash you have and the cash you have with your girl are completely separate. As you level up you will unlock new swimsuits, poses for photography mode and other goodies to gift the ladies. You will gain cash in both modes, but EXP only in owner mode. Some missions will be for the girl and some will be for you in owner mode. You do this by completing missions, completing activities, giving them gifts and of course playing volleyball. You have have 14 days to make sure the girls have the time of their lives. All you really need to know is the girls go on vacation on the newly rebuilt Zack Island and it’s your job to make sure they have a good time.
DEAD OR ALIVE XTREME 3 SCARLET VS FORTUNE PORTABLE
The gameplay was smooth and personally I think this trade off is fine to have it portable and not deal with Sony’s censorship. The 900p it runs at docked was fine as well, but if you have a huge TV, maybe more than 32”, you may notice some difference between the two.
DEAD OR ALIVE XTREME 3 SCARLET VS FORTUNE 720P
The game runs at 720p in handheld which looks great on the Switch’s screen. I personally didn’t have an issue with either of those.
DEAD OR ALIVE XTREME 3 SCARLET VS FORTUNE 1080P
This version does not run at 1080p like the PS4 version and it only runs at 30 FPS instead of 60 like the PlayStation version. Let’s address the elephant in the room with any Switch release, graphics and performance.

This review will cover my time with the Switch version of the game, so let’s see if I had good time with the girls or this was just a bust! The Switch version also includes some destructible swimsuits and items not found in the PlayStation 4 version due to Sony’s new content policy.

This version of the game includes a new character, Misaki, from the gacha game Dead or Alive Xtreme Venus Vacation, some new music and HD Rumble features on the Switch. This is an upgraded version of Dead or Alive Xtreme 3: Fortune that released on the PlayStation 4 back in 2016. It’s time once again to hit the beach in Dead or Alive Xtreme 3: Scarlet.
