The following are the costumes available to Bass Armstrong (aka Mr. Strong) in the 2012 title Dead or Alive 5, and its 2013 PlayStation Vita port Dead or Alive 5+.

At the start of the game, Bass has four different costumes, with two being available from the start and the remaining two costumes being unlocked through either Arcade Mode, Time Attack Mode, or Survival Mode.

For both games, Bass' costumes unlock in the order listed, regardless of the difficulty and mode played. Only one costume is unlocked per mode, per difficulty in the game. Also, the tag team option is considered a different mode than the solo option in the Arcade Mode, and both characters chosen in the tag team will unlock a costume.

With the release of the downloadable costumes, Bass was given four different DLC costumes, adding his total up to eight costumes.
