The premium TEKKEN 6 fight stick bundle for Xbox 360 and
PLAYSTATION 3 will provide even more pulse-pounding experiences with
every bone jarring punch. Each set, retailing for $149.99, will include
a copy of the game, a HORI wireless fight stick and a detailed art
book.
Inspired by the alter-ego of the Penny Arcade character Jonathan
"Gabe" Gabriel, the downloadable Penny Arcade "Samurai Pack" will allow
the legendary warrior Yoshimitsu to don the iconic outfit of the
"Cardboard Tube Samurai." The pack also contains limited edition
Samurai Battle Banners which can be used to customize each of the 40
unique fighters in the game.
A must-have for fighting aficionados, TEKKEN 6 sees the return of many
familiar faces and new characters to create the largest line-up in
franchise history. Adding to the already robust gaming experience,
dynamic and destructible environments will enable players to punch
their enemies through concrete walls or kick them through floors to
open a whole new battleground. Players can also take the battle online
for classic match-ups and to compete for world domination. Furthermore,
an impressive real-time motion blur effect has been implemented to
provide the richest visuals the series has ever seen.
Featuring a new Scenario Campaign mode, players are introduced to a
unique hybrid control system that combines conventional fighting game
controls with free movement. This system allows them to progress
through the story and mow down hordes of enemies while still enjoying
fighting game action either alone or cooperatively online. For the
first time in the series, players will have an arsenal of staffs,
machine guns, flame throwers, and even giant robots at their disposal.
TEKKEN 6 will also be available for the PSP (PlayStation Portable)
system this fall. Optimized for the PSP system, the game will not only
contain the explosive action of its home console brethren but also
feature additional stages, content, items, and an ad-hoc multiplayer
mode.
