Santa Clara, CA (February 16, 2006) - Namco Bandai announced today that it is bringing Tekken to the PSP with Tekken: Dark Resurrection in Summer 2006.

From Namco Bandai:

Bringing the pain to the portable system, Tekken: Dark Resurrection boasts two brand new characters, Lili and Dragunov, whose unique fighting styles and new moves will bring new blood to the ring as they go up against an impressive line up of classic Tekken characters, including the return of Armor King. Fighting fans are in for a new Tekken challenge as the opening movie sets the stage for the new characters to join the ranks of those who pursue the title of the King of the Iron Fist Tournament.

In addition, double the customization items are available in Tekken: Dark Resurrection, allowing the player to transform their favorite characters to their liking, then sharing the look with friends on AD-HOC wireless multiplayer. Topping off the long line of features are fun mini-games that allow players to take breaks from the fighting action, all adding up to make Tekken: Dark Resurrection the premier fighting game for the PSP system.
“We are very excited that the action-packed fighting world of Tekken is coming for the first time to the PSP system,” said Yoshi Niki, Business Unit Director at Namco Bandai. “Having the furious fighting action online through the multiplayer wireless connectivity will enhance the Tekken experience and make it the must have PSP system title in Summer 2006.”

Tekken: Dark Resurrection will be the portable fighting game to own when it rages onto store shelves later this year.
