Tekken Tag Tournament 2 Announced at TGS
Namco dropped a huge bomb on us at the Tokyo Game Show, revealing Tekken Tag Tournament 2 with the trailer embedded below. Yes, the tag-team combat mechanic is back and it’s looking better than ever.
This is just a teaser trailer and isn’t necessarily representative of the final product, but it does seem to reveal a few critical elements. As before, each tag team seems to consist of two characters. Second, it seems that it’s allowing for combos that involve both characters, hot swapping with air juggles and even doing some tandem moves to boot. This looks really exciting and the “switching” mechanic could be somewhat similar to Marvel vs. Capcom 3 or even the tag mode in the new Mortal Kombat. Crazy.
There seems to be a heck of a lot going on with the Tekken universe these days. We’ve got Street Fighter X Tekken coming from Capcom, Tekken X Street Fighter coming from Namco, and now the new Tekken Tag Tournament 2 too. That’s a lot of iron fisting!
P.S. They announced a 2011 release date for arcades in Japan, but no mention of a release date for other markets nor for the major consoles, though both are very likely in the works too.
