The Tekken series is one of the earliest 3D fighting game franchises. The first game was released in 1994, less than two years after Virtua Fighter. There are six Tekken sequel games: Tekken 2, Tekken 3, Tekken Tag Tournament, Tekken 4, Tekken 5 and Tekken 6. Updates of Tekken 5 and Tekken 6, titled Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection and Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion, respectively, have also been released. An eighth installment in the series was officially announced to be in early development stages on May 27, 2010.

The Tekken series also includes Tekken Advance, a GBA version of Tekken 3 which was released for the Game Boy Advance in 2001. However, Namco did not release any other Game Boy Tekken titles subsequently, due to the franchise's exclusive deal on the PlayStation platform. A PSP version of Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection retitled Tekken: Dark Resurrection, was released in Japan and the U.S. in summer 2006. Crossover game Namco x capcom was also released for PS2 in 2005. The European version was released in September 15, 2006. Tekken Card Challenge was also released on the Japan-only hand held WonderSwan.

Tekken is a series of fighting video games developed and produced by Namco. It is one of the earliest 3D fighting games drawing heavily on its predecessor, Virtua Fighter. Since then, however, it has become more of a unique game in its own right.

Both directors of Tekken and Virtua Fighter have shown interest several times in a crossover game of Tekken and Virtua Fighter. The same goes for the directors of Tekken and Street Fighter, which is, after 15 years, finally coming to fruition as the two games Tekken X Street Fighter and Street Fighter X Tekken.

Tekken is a series of fighting games developed and published by Namco. Originally an arcade game, versions exist for the PlayStation, PlayStation 2, PlayStation Portable, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Wonder Swan, Game Boy Advance, and Nintendo 3DS. To date, the series is one of Namco's best-selling franchises, with over 33 million units sold.

The story in each game in the series (with the exception of the non-canon games Tekken Tag Tournament and Tekken Tag Tournament 2) documents the events of the fictional martial arts tournament, The King of Iron Fist Tournament, with the game's chronological number corresponding with the current iteration of the tournament.The tournament is always hosted by a financial corporation called the "Mishima Zaibatsu", with the tournament prize generally being control of the company offered to the victor (who then is free to host the next King of Iron Fist tournament).

The arcade versions are known to traditionally use PlayStation based hardware for each installment, and subsequently each arcade version was eventually made for its respective PlayStation. There are currently six main installments in the Tekken series.

The Tekken series has a wide range of both playable and unplayable characters hailing from various parts of the world and specializing in different fighting styles. While the first games would have several characters with similar movesets, these have since then branched out so that even though certain characters train the same style of martial arts, they would have several unique moves. While the first two games were very sparse in terms of character bios, but high in character data (i.e. height, age, blood type, etc.), this was changed in Tekken 3 where character bios were significantly expanded from being just two or three lines, and then again in Tekken 4 where character data other than age, nationality, and fighting style was removed from the official website bios and being present only in the art books.
