This feature (along with other new features to DOA6) was mentioned in our Combat and Features Trailer Article.
DOA Encyclopedia is purchasable lore floated over quickly in the trailer some of the examples given will blow your winter coats off:
001 - Official Report: Honoka (This suggests that HONOKA COULD BE a f'ing robot after all these years of thinking she was human.)
002 - Project Epsilon
003 - Epsilon Curse
008 - Ayame (More information on her please!)
009 - The First DEAD OR ALIVE Tournament
010 - Assassination
011 - Fame Doglas's Philosophy (Could be interesting)
012 - Victor Donvan's Ambition
013 - Maria Death (Maybe some more details on Helena's mom)
014 - Interim CEO
015 - Tengu of Destruction
I think I understand the order and structure, but it throws me off that the Honoka Report is the very first piece of lore. The triple digits insinuate that there will be more than 100 PIECES of readable lore. Who else is excited about this?

Immediately after the conclusion of the 5th DEAD OR ALIVE tournament, the oil platform that was used as the venue for the tournament had exploded in a ball of flame. All participants, spectators, and platform workers were evacuated via the Freedom Survivor, with no casualties. The platform supervisor, Rig, and one of the workers, Bass, proactively coordinated the evacuation efforts, and saved many lives. The platform was destroyed, after which it was decommissioned on the orders of Helena, CEO of DOATEC. This incident has been consistently reported as an accident of unknown cause.
Mugen Tenshin Ninjustu continues to pass down the highest quality techniques of marial arts that have been honed over centuries through pushing human beings to their very limits of skill and endurance, even in our modern age of information technology.
Hayate, who was destined to become the 18th head of the clan, was the one to inherit the secret technique known as the Torn Sky Blast from his father Shiden.
Shiden received the technique instead of his older brother Raidou, who was removed from the line of succession because of his evil deeds and was expelled from the clan. However, Raidou also possessed a remarkable ability to immediately copy any move his opponents used against him. He wished to steal this move that was only passed among the leaders of the clan and he attacked the village in order to force Hayate to use it against him.

Hayate was defeated by Raidou, and even though he managed to survive, he was no longer able to function as the leader of the clan. After much deliberation, Hayate's father, Shiden decided that Hayate's sister, Kasumi would be the one to take his place the 18th head of the clan. Kasumi was subjected to Shiden's harsh daily training regimen this purpose, but she was never told the truth of what happened. One day, she learned the truth about her brother from her half-sister Ayane, after which she violated the Shinobi code and left the village in secret in order to avenger her brother.
Mugen Tenshin Ninjutsu clan includes two separate sects within itself. The Tenjinmon sect, led by Shiden, and the Hajinmon sect, led by Genra, are like two sides of the same coin. Since the time immemorial, Hajinmon supported the legitimacy of the Tenjinmon sect from the shadows, with both sects governed by a strict code. When a ninja broke that code, it did not matter even if she was the future head of the clan, or that she had done it in order to seek revenge. The code allow no expectations. Thus, Genra had summoned Ayane, Raidou's illegitimate child, and gave her an order: "Runaways deserve no mercy. Capture is unnecessary. She is to be killed on sight."
