EXCLUSIVE: TEKKEN 5 POWERS UP FOR E3 SHOWDOWN
Insider gossip from reliable mouths echoes the same four words: "Tekken five" and "E three"
15:55 Using our special brand of videogames ninjitsu, we have learned today that the next instalment of Tekken in development is scheduled for a worldwide release on arcade, followed by PS2, by the end of the year.
Further chatter from highly placed sources also points to a 2004 E3 unveiling for the title as a certainty, with possible online play ready for the show. Either way, a new direction for the massive fighting franchise is expected.
When contacted in regard to the issue in question, a spokesperson for Namco Europe stated: "We're happy and appreciative of the continued interest in the series, although as far as E3 pans out, if and when announcements are ready to be made, we will let you know".
Tekken 4, although dripping with high-production value gloss, received heavy criticism for its balance issues and considerably smaller-than-normal character roster. Will these problems be addressed in Tekken 5? All going well, we'll be able to tell you in May...
