[edit] Why

Why is this thing being called tekken 6? The video simply says Tekken.

Well, because it's still working title. When the final name comes in it can be moved. --Thorpe | talk 13:04, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

I don't believe Namco stated that this game is actually Tekken 6. They just said it's a new version of Tekken, so there is speculation that it might be Tekken Tag 2. It's entirely possible.

True, but we'll have to assume that it's a new one for now. A TTT2 seems more likely to come out after Tekken 6. TTT is really the Tekken equivalent of Mortal Kombat Trilogy. - The 4th Snake 17:34, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

I found a source stating that this is Tekken 6 and not a new version of Tekken. Weezcake 04:51, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Jun could return

T3's manual said she went missing. Then we have teh Tekken plot questioning her death in later games as well with all this "her body was never found" and "Kazama blood special powers" stuff. Add in the unanswered stuff about her and Kazuya, Jin turning evil, Asuka descovering her powers, etc...and she's likly inside some science lab being experimented on. Doesn't mean she'll be playable (unless they give her a couple of Angel's moves for the "Angel gene").

And in the new trailer it seems that both Asuka and the new female were shocked to see something. The new one especially that jaw dropping moment when she opened the doors. You never know, especially when it comes to the Kazamas and Mishimas. They always live through something that they shouldn't have. And if any character is returning from a long time of absence...it would be Jun thanks to all the questioning of her death in this series....and maybe Kunimitsu. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by VRaptorX (talk • contribs) 22:43, 17 March 2007 (UTC).

[edit] In my opinion

I think Tekken 6 might be a Street Fighter III equivalent for the Tekken Franchise. I think the only returning character for this one is likely to be Jin Kazama. Other characters I think might be new to the series or may carry moves with some twists from past Tekken characters from the series. I also think that it may be possible that Poster Boy Kazuya Mishima might also be present, though I'm gonna have to deduce that Jin Kazama is likely to be the only character returning for this one. — Vesther 00:33, 25 November 2005 (UTC)

You're insane. There's no way Namco could get away with that. Let's remember that, unlike Street Fighter, which has multiple versions (II, Alpha, EX, Vs, III), the Tekken series only has one main series (with a few spinoffs if you consider the handheld games and Tag). Street Fighter III could get away with an all-new cast because the old one had remained practically the same for years. Tekken is constantly adding and dropping new characters with each new title. With the introduction of popular characters like Raven, Steve Fox, Asuka Kazama and Feng Wei, there's no way in hell Namco would have the stones to pull something like that. King Zeal 08:04, 25 November 2005 (UTC)
Stop using a Wiki discussion page as a substitute for a forum.
Namco would never do that. Look at T5 they brought back almost everyone. A new tekken game with only Jin as the returning character would not be very popular among fans. Aeneiden-Rex 09:07, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

My guess is that Jin Kazama had rid himself of Devil Jin and left the throne after he defeated Jinpachi. Now when Devil Jin takes over, Jin must fight Kazuya and Heihahci again to stop his dark ego.

[edit] Breaking News

I just heard on a message board that Jun Kazama is going to return in this game.

If this game is in fact TTTag 2 then she returns but not for T6, they have Asuka now. Aeneiden-Rex 09:08, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
I don't know where either of you are getting your information, so I'll remain suspicious. As far as I'm aware, we know absolutely nothing about the character roster. Asuka's presence in the game doesn't necessarily rule out Jun, either. King Zeal 14:13, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
Well it remains to be seen but I'm gonna hate Namco if if they bring back Jun to T6. If it's Tag 2 then it won't matter cause Tag is a spinoff but I hope they won't return her for Tekken 6. Aeneiden-Rex 15:13, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
Jun was killed off in Tekken 3 by Ogre. They won't bring her back, seeing that now they have Asuka (and because she's dead). Weezcake 08:15, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

Zeal's got a point. Baek Doo San, Bruce Irvin, Kazuya Mishima, Marshall Law and Wang Jinrei were replaced by Hwoarang, Bryan Fury, Jin Kazama, Forest Law and Ling Xiaoyu respectively. All of them returned. Jun and even Michelle could return. - The 4th Snake 17:38, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

Who added Potatoman? I'll pay that it was funny, but I don't think it should stay there

[edit] Impossible

Jun could not possibly return. Although others have, Jun will not return because of the fact that she could been in 3,4, or 5, but has not. Also, there is Asuka. I know about Eddy/Christie, but Eddy was brought back in the next game.


Jun's body was never found and is always a constant plot point Namco loves to question. Every Tekken since 2 has had a "where is she?" or an "is she alive?" part. Previous dead and replaced characters came back. Plus, Jun has the angel gene,, she could just get the lazor beam moves and Namco will count that as being different. They are really cheap about character variations like that. Plus, her reveil would affect the plot drastically for Asuka (who hasn't learned of her power), Jin, Kazuya, Heihachi (she trusted Jin to him), etc. She may never be playable again but that doesn't mean she is impossible to return. She could be a boss or a non playable alive character and that still counts as a return. (VRaptorX)

[edit] What a rubbish page

The only thing on the page is a far too detailed description of what happens in the trailer movie (which is almost certainly not representative of the final product).Mr.bonus 15:34, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Coin Op & PS3

I know that this Tekken game is being released for the Playstation 3 (with rumors of an Xbox 360 version in the works, just like the Ridge Racer game that was released for the Xbox 360), but I have never heard of a coin-op version of Tekken 6. Could you please tell me where this truthful information that has been verified has come from? Thank you very much. --mike_mgoblue


Tekken rights are owned by Sony. Namco has no choice in where this series goes as far as platforms go. Soul Caliber, yeah they can put it on whatever they want but not tekken. (VRaptorX 3/17/07)

[edit] Kazuya Mishima Confirmed?

Anyone care to elaborate?

I haven't heard anything about this, nor have we seen anything from Namco. Where did you get this information? (Meh, I keep forgetting to sign my comments) Weezcake 07:40, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Info?

are they actually gonna release any information on this?

[edit] Heihachi, Nina, Yoshimitsu and Paul

Shouldn't Heihachi, Nina, Yoshimitsu and Paul be confirmed? They should because they are in every Tekken game. Iswatch19 13:19, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

No. There's a first time for everything. King Zeal 04:58, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
Those four characters should be confirmed, and I have played all the Tekken series, and whenever I play one of the sequals, I always see the four chracters on the character selection screen. So those four characters should be confirmed. --MacintoshApple 11:46, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
You seemed to be confused about the meaning of "confirmed". "Confirmed" would mean that you can provide physical evidence that these characters are in the game. (Ex: official statements, screenshots, quotes, etc.). Until that is provided, absolutely nothing is confirmed, and no character will be added until it is. King Zeal 14:02, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
It's expected though, but it isn't confirmed. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Magikmm (talk • contribs) 17:14, 4 March 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Character Section

Since we don't know that Jin, Lili or Hwoarang will definitely return, I renamed the "Returning Characters" section to "Possible Returning Characters". The 4th Snake 17:45, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

And I'm removing it completely. ALL characters are possible returning characters. There's no need for it at this time, as it is just speculation. 199.126.137.209 23:30, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Industry Analyst Release Predictions

I took the time to point out some of the things that industry analysts say Namco is scheduling. I talk about release dates for the Xbox 360 version that is currently in development, but has not yet been officially announced, since it is not going to be released until late 2007, slightly later than the Playstation 3 version due to the extra time needed to include Xbox Live online play that will not be included in the Playstation 3 version. I provided references for the information I provided. Mike mgoblue 02:20, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

That site is not a credible source, in my opinion. All it states is that the game is RUMORED to ship for XBox 360, and states that this was learned from anonymous sources. I recommend that it be removed until an actual CREDIBLE source announces it, or the statement is backed up on other gaming news sites. King Zeal 06:54, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
If you look at the article, it basically says "Tekken 6 coming to the xbox?" (note the question mark). Once a site like gamespot or ign confirms it, we can put it into the article. But until then.. Weezcake 07:24, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
Namco has never released any Tekken game on a non-Sony branded console. Despite what the rumour mill always tends to say around the release time of a new Tekken installment, Sony have a lifetime exclusivity contract with Namco to guarantee that the Tekken franchise will only feature on their hardware.--Durzel 16:46, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Website

Is there an official website for Tekken 6? Morris Munroe 10:39, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

I don't think so. I wish they'd release more info about the game.. I want to know what I can look forward to! But until then, you'll have to watch websites like IGN and Gamespot. Weezcake 01:27, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
Guess what, now there is. TK6AC official site Doesn't really give much, only 2 new peeps. Should be Leo and Armor King from screenshot 2, Medina and Jack from 4, others I can't make out. And hey look, it's the upgraded C3PO! Ytlow 14:06, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

That is Jack if I'm right. It shows him been customised to look like that in the trailer . Actually, is it a new Jack or Jack 5. It says in the confirmed characters section that there is a Jack 6, but there is no proof that the Jack robot seen in the trailer is a new one(it looks just like Jack 5 to me).Michael Mad 19:26, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Hwoarang and Lili

Since the E3 video has nothing to do with T6, should the T6 section in Hwoarang and Lili be removed for good? Ytlow 08:52, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

No. The trailer exists. The fact that it isn't canon doesn't change the fact that they were in it. Besides that, I have yet to see a citation for that particular bit of info. King Zeal 16:37, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Jack-6

There is nothing in the new trailer that states or implies that the Jack seen in the trailer is Jack-6. This Jack looks very much like Jack-5, that said it doesn't mean it is Jack-5 seeing how the majority of Jack models look alike. Untill more is said by Namco on the subject at hand, this Jack robot should just be referred to as Jack or not referred to at all.Michael Mad 13:37, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

The problem with just listing the character as "Jack" is the fact that the name already belongs to completely seperate character in the Tekken universe. Also, calling it "Jack-5", is assuming just as much. If we want to avoid any sort of designation, I'll simply make the change to "an unspecified model of Jack". King Zeal 16:59, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Yes, you're right. Calling this robot Jack would just led to confusion, and calling him Jack-5 or Jack-6 would just be foolish as there isn't sufficent proof that the robot is either.Michael Mad 18:06, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

True. Although they do seem to go in order, there are deviations in the Jack series, like P-Jack and Gun-Jack. Looks like this Jack may have a new name if they still go with the 1-2-different-4-5-different pattern. I guess leaving it at that is best, although it does look kind of weird haha. Weezcake 20:04, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Actually, is Gun Jack the Jack-3? Also, somebody keeps putting a Kory Sapp on the confirmed characters list. I'll delete it(hopefully once and for all).Michael Mad 13:36, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

Whoever is doing this is repeatedly vandalising the page. I'll delete his "contributions".Michael Mad 13:42, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, Gun Jack was technically "Jack-3", although that obviously wasn't the name used. King Zeal 13:43, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Leo

Is Leo a boy or a girl? 200.88.230.163 18:33, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

Looks like a guy but I've heard that Leo is a girl. Don't think that needs to be in the article anyways.. Weezcake 23:06, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The unintelligible word in the story

it supposed to be "power" —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 217.132.13.159 (talk) 20:09, 1 April 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Does anyone know?

I don't know if Raven is going to be in Tekken 6 since in his page it says that when you play Nina's story mode in Tekken 5, she kills Raven.--Josue Ramirez 01:17, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Nina's ending involves herself and Anna, not Raven. Weezcake 01:26, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
It doesn't make any difference, anyway, because what happens in the current game doesn't count. The only story you can trust is whatever they chose for the next game. King Zeal 18:44, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
Yes it does. You should know that Tekken is one long story line in which Tekken 5 story lines affect Tekken 6 ones. Unless the character was extremely unpopular or dies in the story, Namco generally removes them from the roster. Weezcake 22:25, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
No, it doesn't. Remember when Devil was defeated by Kazuya in his Tekken 2 ending? Or when Jun Kazama purified the Devil from Kazuya?
No, wait. I'll do one better: Remember when Lei Wulong shot and arrested Nina in his Tekken 4 ending? Remember how much impact that ending had on Tekken 5? Zero. That's because the Tekken series has a VERY unclear method of selecting which endings are canon and which are not. Therefore, it makes no difference to start speculating whose endings are real and whose isn't, because we won't know for sure until the next game is released. King Zeal 23:58, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] New info

I just found this on an internet forum, should it be added to the article? http://ps3forums.com/showthread.php?t=66482

No. King Zeal 05:27, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

That storyline is little more than an April Fool's joke.Michael Mad 18:24, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
