Partners can also be used with the new tag assault, where if you bound an opponent (smack an airborne character to the ground), you can hold the tag button just as the hit lands and your partner comes rushing in to do an attack. To stop this, it is advised to use one of the implemented ways to safely bring in a character, such as during a launcher or when you tag throw an opponent. Like with every multi-teamed fighting game, randomly tagging in a partner is dangerous as it leaves the character at risk for a very short amount of time, giving a good player the opportunity to punish for big damage. Each attack button represents a character’s limb, with a fifth button used for tagging in the partner. When it comes to the gameplay, the fundamentals for the combat are still Tekken, heavily based around Tekken 6’s system. Fans will find their favourites, since near enough everyone is here, from both Laws, Kunimitsu, Michelle, to Jun, True Ogre, and Alex, the boxing velociraptor. That’s the biggest roster ever for the series. It has also come to my attention that six more characters are planned (most likely free), giving Tekken Tag Tournament 2 a grand total of 59 fighters.

The story in the Tekken Tag games is non-canon, allowing for the dead to be resurrected, giving a cast of 49 characters – with an additional four locked for preorder goodies and free DLC at a later date. Yeah, it is without a doubt the most humorous tutorial in any fighter. At least the Fight Lab makes for an entertaining tutorial, thanks to ridiculous tasks like dodging a fat, yellow power ranger throwing pizza, or an Akuma copycat that gets bigger every time he is hit. You can solve this by searching Google, but that is not the same as the game teaching you.

I feel that this handicaps new players, since they have no knowledge of some of the basic combos with their favourite characters. The game is missing combo challenges the move list does give example combos, and you can watch them demonstrated, but that does not feel as involving as doing challenges – a feature in most of Capcom’s and Arc System Works’ fighters. The Fight Lab goes through the basics of attacking, defending, juggling and tagging, and is perfect for newcomers, but if you want to learn character specific combos then it falls short. Tekken Tag Tournament 2 solves some of these complications with the new Fight Lab, a comical short story that puts the player in the role of Combot, a mechanical robot who is receiving fight training from Violet – the eccentric alter ego of Lee. Twelve years later, the tag mechanic returns, but does the inclusion of this make the latest Iron Fist Tournament the best Tekken game yet?Ī problem with fighting games is that they often fall short at explaining the mechanics. The original Tekken Tag Tournament was a PAL launch title for the PlayStation 2 and regarded by some as the most fun of the series, attributed to the inclusion of the tag mechanics and the feeling that it was built on top of the Tekken 3 fighting system. The last title, Tekken 6, released just after the rebirth of fighting games (due to the fantastic Street Fighter IV) back in 2009. It has been almost three years since gamers received a new Tekken game.
