Tekken It is one of the most beloved and unique fighting sagas in video games, and it is celebrating today. On the one hand, it marks 29 years since the launch for consoles in Japan, premiering on March 31, 1995 on PlayStation. On the other hand, this same year in September it will be 30 years since its launch in Arcades, with a few months of separation between them. It was specifically on September 21, 1994.
Tekken is one of the most technical fighting video games ever, giving players an endless list of moves for each player and later themselves discovering the difference between all their moves, and the pros and cons of all the characters against each other. Discovering that a certain movement misses a character by a few centimeters while it does reach the rest of the cast of characters is one of those surprises that leave you shocked when you discover him fighting an opponent.
Exclusive to Arcades and PlayStation to later reach all platforms
The saga has gone through many stages, but for two generations with Tekken 6and thereafter, each installment was released on different platforms including Xbox 360. Every installment that has been released since then has happened to it like Soul Caliburits sister saga from the same company, which already lost exclusivity many years ago.
Tekken on PlayStation it was the first video game to exceed one million copies sold, in an era where video game sales were not such colossal numbers as those we currently live in, that was an impressive figure. Although the first installment was quite basic -although complex for what was available at that time-, it was really Tekken 2 the one who laid the foundations of gameplay Tekken that we know, and later Tekken 3 It would be that great evolution at the level of character movement, attack movements, defenses, counter-attacks, pros and cons of each character and finally that speed that made the Bandai Namco title famous.

Since then Tekken has become one of the competitive hand-to-hand fighting video games par excellence, with the permission of Street FighterRey de peleas and a few other titles, Tekken It is there as a reference in its own right, almost without changing a formula that never gets old. If something is not broken, there is no need to repair it.
