The whole Dead or Alive series has been centered around him. In Dead or Alive 1, Hayate has been captured by DOATEC and made into a superhuman.
In Dead or Alive 2 After the DOATEC project he lost his memory and called himself EIN. He learned karate in Germany and master it very fast. After that he joins the DOA 2 tournament to find answers of his lost past. After he kills the EVIL Tengu he remembers his past again.
He returns in Dead Or Alive 3 as his original name Hayate, the leader of the Mugen Tenshin Style. He wears a different white outfit and wears a 2 sword combo on his back(standard). Some of his new moves are similair to Kasumi. This has been done on purpose to show their connection with the same fighting style and their home ninja village. He also knows some old moves from his karate experience. As a bonus Tecmo has put in the old EIN character of Hayate. He has been put as an extra character in Dead or Alive 3 which can be unlocked. Only difference is that he now wears a longer black coat, the same Itagaki sometimes wears. It has been said that this is Itagaki's favourite male character.
He is a very strong and powerful character. He doesn't use any very difficult and complicated moves like for example Ayane does. But instead uses his own karate way of fighting. He is the brother of Kasumi and Ayane, who both love him very much ♥.
His standard tag mate is Ayane. Which make their tag team incredibly strong. But you can tag him up with Kasumi as well. Both will have a very strong team.
