After the phenomenal story mode in Mortal Kombat, I was disappointed to find that Arcade mode acts as the main single-player experience. Relying on an arcade style of gameplay, you won’t find a dedicated story mode to fight through. It’s safe to say that Tekken contains the most varied and outlandish characters in any fighting game – seriously, the game has a boxing kangaroo/velociraptor and a fighting panda bear and none of the other characters seem to care! All of the downloadable characters from the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions are already included and unlocked, giving Wii U owners access to them right from the start. Taking a glance at the character select screen, I was amazed at the amount of characters to choose from – with well over 50+ in all. For those newcomers of the series, don’t come expecting to be pulling off hadoukens and shoryukens, Tekken focuses on time based combo gameplay. The first KO will end the round, making it imperative to keep track of the health of each character. Tagteams are able to pull off crazy team attacks and combos. Playing with a single competitor you will still face-off against a team of two throughout the Arcade mode, but your fighter will receive a slight buff in stats to help even the odds. With the freedom in choosing whether to play with a single fighter or with a team of two, Tekken Tag 2 allows you to play how you want. Tekken Tag Tournament 2 feels much like the previously released title – Tekken 6 – albeit featuring exciting tag-team action – if you choose to do so. While other fighting game franchise have tried to reinvent themselves with each iteration, Tekken has stayed true to its core, but still manages to provide improvements along the way.
