How to unlock the Blow 'Em Away achievement in Dead or Alive 5 - Definitive Guide

For at least all the fighters I've seen so far, their Power Blow is executed by pressing in a direction (usually back or back/down) and holding P+K for a second, and the move will launch without needing to release. To check your fighters specific direction, go to 'view movelist' in the pause menu during the fight, and scroll to near the bottom of the strikes page. One move will say 'POWER BLOW' above the button combination. (Note: You cannot execute these until you life bar begins to flash red, which it does when you hit 1/2 health remaining).

In Zack's chapter, it becomes one of the goals given to you, which means it will give you a more in-depth explination of how they work toward the fight, and executing his during said fight will unlock another title for you as well, so if you want a little extra help try doing it this way.

Another easy way to do this is simply use 2 controllers in a versus fight.

Apparently it's not possible to get this in training mode. I got it with Zack in VS-mode (his power blow is invoked by holding diagonally left and down and LB).

For this trophy you must successfully land a fully charged Power Blow, the input for the Power Blow vary between characters but most of the casts Power Blows are done by holding + (you’ll have to check the characters Command List otherwise).

To perform the Power Blow at its full charge your health must be flashing red which occurs once your health goes below 50%. Against a second controller or an easy A.I opponent you can easily stand in front of them and perform the Power Blow and they won’t block it however if you are facing a harder opponent you can stun them with Critical Burst Stun state you will have enough time to charge the Power Blow and land it before they recover off the stun.
