Tekken Resurrected for PSP - Screens
Namco's new arcade brawler is bound for your pocket. Fiirst screens.
It's taken a long time, but Namco's premier fighting series will soon be making the transition from entertainment centre to back pocket. The company revealed that it has a PSP port in the works of the latest arcade incarnation, Tekken: Dark Resurrection.
The big draw here is the history inherent in the decade-old series. It brings a crowded roster of 30 characters, including returning favourite such as Armor King and new pugilists Dragunov and Lili. Your combatants will do battle for honour on 19 stages.
The arcade aping stops there but that's not the end. You'll be able to play one-on-one through WiFi, and Namco has thrown in a few new movies and other snippets just for this version, which also has new modes better suited to the on-and-off nature of portable gaming.
Join the fray when Tekken: Dark Resurrection hits the PSP this summer.
