NAMCO BANDAI GAMES ANNOUNCES THE RELEASE DATE FOR TEKKEN TAG TOURNAMENT™ 2 ANZ EDITION

Exclusive ANZ EDITION with Metal Case and DLC content to be available on 13th September 2012 in Australia and New Zealand 

Sydney, Australia – 14 June 2012 – NAMCO BANDAI Partners today announced TEKKEN TAG TOURNAMENT 2 ANZ EDITION, the next installment in the award-winning fighting game franchise, will release to retailers worldwide the week of September 10, 2012 for the PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system and Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft. TEKKEN TAG TOURNAMENT 2 ANZ EDITION will boast the largest roster of fighters in TEKKEN™ history and fighting game fans who pre-order the game at select retailers can look forward to playing with additional DLC characters: Michelle Chang, Angel, Kunimitsu and Ancient Ogre.

On day one of TEKKEN TAG TOURNAMENT 2’s launch, fans that placed their pre-orders with selected retailers will have access to the exclusive ANZ EDITION, which includes a high quality Metal Tin case with exclusive artwork, the additional four DLC characters and the Snoop Dog Background stage. The ANZ EDITION will be produced in limited quantities and available through EB Games and JB Hifi in Australia and New Zealand as their standard version.

TEKKEN shattered fighting game genre barriers when it unveiled tag based combat with the release of TEKKEN TAG TOURNAMENT in 1999. TEKKEN TAG TOURNAMENT 2 continues to break boundaries with the introduction of the new Fight Lab mode, where players can customize the moves and appearance of new training character, Combot. Players that clear the innovative Fight Lab will have mastered the complexities of TEKKEN and own their own customized Combot, which can be used in offline and non-ranked online play.

In addition to this, one-on-one fighting and solo fighter vs. tag-team battles have been added to enhance the range of gameplay options for seasoned TEKKEN fans while providing an easier point of access to new players. TEKKEN TAG TOURNAMENT 2 also includes Pair Play, where up to four players can each control a character in the ultimate team battle.

TEKKEN TAG TOURNAMENT 2 will be available for the PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system and Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft in Australia and New Zealand on September 13, 2012.
