Posting from the just now complete Official Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate Tournament, Hayashi announced that at the end of January there will be a patch to the Arcade version of the game. In February, the consoles will receive said arcade patch sans Marie Rose. Marie Rose will be available on console some time in the spring.
DOA5U Patch updates incoming

- Start date
Hype!
Nice!
Nice job at the tournament, by the way. The matches were fun to watch.
Good to know, hopefully the patch will be good.
Somebody's gonna find something to complain about. Might as well prepare yourself now...
I really hope they #BuffEin *fingerscrossed*
Great news! 
EDIT: The user Airgear posted some more info on DOAWORLD:
"Just finished watching the Japan DOA5U Official Tournament.
Hayashi announced some new info at the end of the tournament:
1) Version 1.04 update coming to Arcade version at the end of January.
2) More costumes will be added to Arcade, including new costume for Marie Rose.
3) The same 1.04 update (not including Marie Rose) will come to console in the first half of February.
4) This update for console includes bug fix and feature enhancement.
5) Marie Rose will only be released to console in Spring 2014 (no fix date yet).
6) Core Fighters downloads have reached 800,000 times."
For me it's pretty interesting to read that the console update will include feature enhancement... maybe some pretty element of the Arcade like the characters HUD, the attract mode or the displaying of the customization during the selection, could be able to reach also the consoles
EDIT2: @Cadaveri had already posted Airgear info, I didn't notice it.

The Patch should try to make the netcode better but great news that for sure.
I'm fine with the wait, specially if we get more quality (casual collection style and legacy pack style) costumes while we wait. It's good to know that the game still has some time in it and will be supported for yet a while.
Also very much looking forward to see what they will do in terms of feature enhancements... Wonder if there will be any balancing going on.

I agree: for what we know the patch including Marie Rose could be also the last one, so if after the February patch will be still possible to make some changes or adjustmenets in the planned Spring's one, I don't see it like a bad thing.
Crossing my fingers for back roll fixes
I just hope it's actually a balance patch and not an unbalanced patch. Would really hate to see already great characters get buffs while sucky ones get the shaft *looks at Eliot*
And, of course, a tweak to their netcode or servers.

Hopefully Genfu gets buffs
If they are going to do anything with Ein, I hope they fix his inputs at the very fucking least. It shouldn't be so frustrating for Ein players.
Give me ps4 DOA5U+
Hopefully Genfu gets buffs
Buffed up to alpha weight class stat.
