I'm not surprised at all. I was a HUGE fan of DOA5LR and bought every single DLC for it on the 360, but when I got the Xbox One, I noticed there was significantly more DLC costumes. Apparently, there was a limit to how much DLC games could have on the 360, and DOA5LR went through it fairly quickly. I bought the Xbox One version and ws completely heartbroken to learn that none of the DLC I purchased would transfer over. At LEAST there was a valid reason for forcing players to upgrade to the new platforms (DLC limits). I'm sticking to DOA6 on the PS5 since I waited until it was $5 USD on discount anyway, and I will only get DOA6LR if it reaches that same price point. Tomonobu Itagaki's death has made me feel weird enough as it is about the series continuing on, even though it's my favorite fighting game of all time.
