All 40 Tekken 6 characters available from start

July 2nd, 2009 Posted in Fighting, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360

It’s been a fighting game tradition to leave a characters as unlockables for some time now. However, according to Katsuhiro Harada, Tekken’s series director, this tradition is “outdated”.

He explained his reasong by saying that unlockables first came to be back in the arcade days when developers wanted to get people to play for longer thus increasing the game’s longevity.

I agree with Mr. Harada considering the first time I played Street Fighter IV online and got destroyed by Akuma’s Ultra Combo, I was none too pleased that I couldn’t return the favor next match.

Tekken 6 will be available with all 40 of its characters for the PS3 and Xbox 360 on October 27th of this year.
