As the vibrant energy of Season 2 begins and the Tekken World Tour looms just ahead, the year 2025 is shaping up to be another thrilling chapter for fans of Bandai Namco’s iconic Tekken series. Known as one of the original fighting games to launch on the PlayStation, Tekken has a deep-rooted connection with the console and has continuously evolved alongside it. Now, as we delve into the twisted saga of the Mishima family, let’s explore all the chaos they’ve unleashed upon PlayStation players over the years.

#### Bloodline Beginnings

Tekken first made its mark on the gaming world as one of the pioneering fighting games gracing the original PlayStation back in 1995. Launching in Japan early in the year, and making its way to other territories by fall, this game introduced us to the ominous Mishima family and a robust four-button control scheme that laid the groundwork for future releases. Unlike most arcade ports at the time, which often compromised on graphics and sound due to hardware limitations, Tekken offered an arcade-perfect experience but upped the ante by including features like cinematic endings, new sub-boss characters, and an unexpected hidden character—discoverable through mastering Galaga during loading screens.

When Tekken 2 hit arcades later in 1995, it shifted the narrative focus to Heihachi Mishima, the villain from the original game, and brought in interesting new characters like Jun and Lei. The arcade smash found a new home on the PlayStation the following year, enriched by visually stunning CG intros and endings that highlighted Namco’s knack for storytelling through cutscenes. New modes like Team Battle and Time Attack were introduced alongside the familiar fighting mechanics.

Fans were primarily introduced to the series with Tekken 3, released in 1998. The game significantly advanced the timeline, shifting the focus to Jin Kazama, son of Kazuya and Jun. The roster expanded with fresh faces like Hwoarang and Eddy, while 3D arenas demanded tactical sidestep dodges. PlayStation owners were treated to exclusive modes like Tekken Force and Tekken Ball, as well as new characters like Dr. Bosconovich and Gon, the diminutive dinosaur guest.

#### Vengeance, powered by Emotion Engines

The PlayStation 2 heralded its arrival with Tekken Tag Tournament in 2000. With improved visuals showing off what the new hardware was capable of, the game introduced players to the tag match mechanic, enabling two-character teams in battles. A wider roster brought back many beloved fighters, and Tekken Bowl added an enjoyable twist.

Tekken 4 landed a year after Tag Tournament’s console debut and marked Kazuya’s return. With distinctive stage designs with walls and obstacles, players had to adjust and adapt their strategies to the new gameplay mechanics. A noteworthy addition was the full-fledged Story Mode that deepened the narrative engagement, a testament to the game’s evolved storytelling ambition.

#### Devils Emerging from a CELL

After Tekken 5’s release promised the most comprehensive fan experience yet, including the return of the agile Heihachi and new character options with customization, Dark Resurrection tweaked the formula further on PSP, introducing updated graphics and game balance improvements. Even longtime fans clamored for a console version, leading to a downloadable PSN release with online multiplayer unleashing a new era of Tekken battles.

In the meantime, Tekken 6 launched, unveiling new characters like Bob and Zafina. The game’s narrative complexities grew with Jin and Kazuya battling for global dominance. New mechanics like Rage and interactive stages kept fans on their toes, challenging their mastery of the game’s subtleties.

#### The Struggle Continues

As Tekken 7 made its way to the PlayStation 4, it brought with it a myriad of updates and a story mode that delved into the Mishima clan’s rivalry. The game introduced an eclectic mix of characters, with Akuma from Street Fighter joining the fray, and featured adjustments to the Rage system, inviting players to explore these refined mechanics.

The PS4 release was followed by consistent DLC offerings that continuously enriched the roster and gameplay, introducing special guest characters like Geese Howard and Noctis, engaging fans even further. Now, as Tekken 8 greeted its first anniversary on PS5, the promise of more thrilling updates and character additions ensures that the Mishima family drama—and the excitement Tekken brings—continues to capture the imaginations and thumbs of gamers worldwide.
