Introduction
‘Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion’ is a significant update to ‘Tekken 6,’ introducing new characters, stages, and a host of customization options.
Synopsis
The game’s narrative is set in a world where Jin Kazama, the new King of Iron Fist and head of the Mishima Zaibatsu family, has declared war on all nations. Using his resources within the organization to become a global superpower, he severs the Mishima Zaibatsu’s national ties and openly declares war against all nations. This action plunges the world into an extremely chaotic spiral, with a huge-scale civil war erupting around the globe and even amidst the space colonies orbiting the planet.
His biological father, Kazuya Mishima, is aware of this and finds Jin’s interference in his own plans for global domination to be a nuisance. Now in charge of G Corporation, having usurped the company following its previous leaders’ failure to use and then dispose of him, Kazuya is seen as the only force who could oppose Jin and places a bounty on Jin’s head for anyone who can capture him. Jin’s response is to announce The King of Iron Fist Tournament 6 in order to battle Kazuya and crush G Corporation.
Meanwhile, among the ranks of the Tekken Force, a young soldier named Lars Alexandersson has begun a rebellion to slowly dismantle the Mishima Zaibatsu and G Corporation in order to put an end to the war. During an operation, Lars stumbles across a sleeping female cyborg, identifying her as Alisa Bosconovitch, and G Corporation forces attack, starting a fight and causing an explosion that kills almost everyone present at the scene and leaves Lars with amnesia. Lars escapes with Alisa and the two begin a journey to discover their origins, meeting and fighting several previous Tekken characters.
“Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion” features new characters, stages, items, and customization options. It also gives the game a balance update from characters and items. The game retains the style of gameplay from “Phantom Hourglass”, where players use the stylus to control Link and use weapons and items. The game is divided into an overworld, which Link traverses using the Spirit Tracks, and towns and dungeons which he travels by foot.
