Tekken™ 5: Dark Resurrection
The King of Iron Fist smashes onto PLAYSTATION Network

o Stunning new title for PLAYSTATION 3 comes to PLAYSTATION Network
o 30+ character line-up: powerful new fighters swell the Tekken ranks
o Unlock Fight Money to spend on downloadable extra content

It’s the world’s top fighting game, and it’s back with new characters, new stages, new features and new moves! Tekken™5: Dark Resurrection is here for PLAYSTATION®3 (PS3™), available as a download from PLAYSTATION®Network1 (PSN), the interactive, evolving space which opens the door to a new world of exciting entertainment opportunities. Combat has never been as high-octane as this: the next-generation power of the PS3 brings faster, more intelligent gameplay, incredible new attacks to unleash and beautifully rendered High Definition fighting environments to smash your opponents’ heads into.

Tekken is an established franchise already available on PlayStation®, PlayStation®2, PSP™ (PlayStation®Portable), and in arcades; but new to the PS3 version is the ability to control boss character Jinpachi Mishima – father of Heihachi – for the first time. Russian soldier Sergei Dragunov brings his Sambo skills to the tournament from the frozen tundra, while Lili, the privileged daughter of a Monaco oil magnate, uses her street fighting skills to bring bigger fighters to their knees.

There are three Competition Modes and a brand new Gallery Mode in which you can download extras like ‘ending movies’ and Tekken images using Fight Money you’ve earned. The new characters join a cast of over 30 kick-ass bruisers including old favourites like Jin Kazama, Eddy Gordo, King and Marshall Law – all ready to fight for the ultimate prize once again. The challenge is set; now get involved on PSN – the King of Iron Fist tournament will relocate to your house at the touch of a button.

Key Features:

• Fight for the championship in Arcade Mode
• Take on your choice of PS3-controlled opponent in Ghost Mode
• Trade blows with your friends in Versus Mode
• Enjoy the rich heritage of the Tekken series
• Another hit from iconic developers Namco
