Tekken 6 (鉄拳6) is the latest installment of Namco's Tekken series, which was released to Japanese arcades on November 26, 2007. It is the first game to be released on Namco's new (as of yet unnamed) PlayStation 3 based arcade board, is expected to be released for the PlayStation 3 sometime in 2008, and is currently regarded as one of the most highly anticipated PlayStation 3 games yet to be released.[citation needed]
Trailers
At E3 in 2005, a teaser video featured Jin Kazama demonstrating some martial arts moves.
At E3 in 2006 a second trailer begins showing Lili, armed with an umbrella or parasol, walking through a forlorn desert village. In the next scene, Jin suddenly careens through the wall of a church, and Lili follows closely behind, goading him into battle. The two fight and manage to land a few blows on one-another before being interrupted by Hwoarang crashing through a stained glass window on his motorcycle. Taking advantage of Jin's distraction, Lili kicks him high into the air, allowing Hwoarang to leap from his bike and crash it into the airborne Jin. The motorcycle explodes, prompting Jin to transform into Devil Jin. Devil Jin attacks the pair, but Hwoarang races forward and lands several kicks on Devil Jin, forcing Devil Jin to retreat back into the air. Incensed, he fires a blast of energy from the third eye on his forehead, causing the church steeple to fall towards Hwoarang and Lili.
In February 2007, Namco released a third trailer. This new trailer featured actual gameplay footage of Tekken 6 and introduced new characters, Zafina and Leo. The trailer also showcased many of the new stages and locales the game will take place in, as well as an expanded character-customization feature. Finally, the trailer ends with Bryan Fury, as he uses a shotgun to finish a juggle combo.
Content and new features
Director Katsuhiro Harada (who also directed Tekken 5) said that Tekken 6 will retain all of the elements from Tekken 5 and Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection that were well-received by fans. He also said that the stages will be bigger and will have more interactivity and the character customization feature will be more involved with gameplay.[1]
- In Tekken 6, every frame animation for every character has been changed.
- In Tekken 6, some stages are multi-tiered with new stage features and has daylight/nighttime transitions depending on stage.
- Tekken 6 will have an online versus multiplayer mode.[2]
- The customization system from Tekken 5 returns with improved options and more items in Tekken 6. You can switch tops and bottoms between available character costumes, as well as substitute alternate pieces. Common options for all characters include various items (star-shaped sunglasses, twin swords) and options for 'no gloves' or 'no shoes'. There are also character-specific items and pieces, as well as special items that unlock Item Moves once equipped.
- Tekken 6 adds a new "rage" system, which gives characters more power in a same way that charge techniques do, and gets automatically activated when the character's vitality gets low. When it is activated, a red energy field surrounds the character and their health bar starts to flicker in red.[3]
- Tekken 6 also introduces "item moves", with which a character uses an item to attack the opponent (for example, Bryan Fury uses a shotgun, Anna Williams kicks off one of her shoes, Ling Xiaoyu attacks others with a pair of neko gloves, and Asuka Kazama uses a paper fan).
- Tekken 6 introduces a new "bounce" system, after moves that knock the opponent down in juggles and they can not tech roll. A new “bounce” comes into play, extending juggle possibilities.
- Tekken 6 has an increased health bar compared to the previous games, due to new features stated above which deplete a lot of health.
Characters
Harada has stated that Tekken 6 will boast the greatest number of characters ever seen in a Tekken game with a total of 40 characters.[1] According to Namco, virtually all of the Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection characters will be returning with new additional characters.
As of November 2007, five new characters have been confirmed. The first character, Zafina, is a female who will have moves Harada likened to that of a "spider"[1] and who enters the tournament to prevent the clash of the "two evil stars." The second character, Leo, is a German who is intended to be a character which can be played by beginners and experienced players alike. The death of Leo's mother prompts Leo to begin investigating the Mishima Zaibatsu. [1] The third character, Miguel, is a Spaniard with a passion for fighting, but no real discipline. Miguel wants to exact revenge upon the death of his sister at her wedding. The fourth character, Bob, is an American who is known as a martial arts genius. Due to being unable to defeat larger opponents however, he disappeared from the fighting world, determined to increase his weight and power while still maintaining speed. Bob enters The King of Iron Fist Tournament 6 to test his new skills. Azazel is the final boss of the game. Azazel's story is said to be related with Zafina and Julia Chang's story in Tekken 6 and the confrontation between Jin Kazama and his father Kazuya Mishima. NANCY-MIS47J is a hidden sub-boss, whose story is also unknown.
