Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate getting February update, new fighter Marie Rose due spring

Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate developer Team Ninja has revealed that the brawler will receive a new update in February, and that new fighter Mario Rose is coming in spring.

It comes from fan-site FreeStepDodge, which reported on a Dead or Alive tournament over the weekend. Team Ninja boss Yosuke Hayashi was there, and he confirmed that update 1.04 will drop in February, but will not include arcade-only fighter Marie Rose. She'll get her own update in spring, he said.

Here's some footage of Marie Rose in action.
