Tekken 2 (PlayStation)

To do: There are leftover hit effects from the arcade release (a green splodge), as well as an unused title screen background presumably used at promotional events prior to the game's arcade release. Compare both NA builds. (v1.0 and v1.1)

Tekken 2 is the sequel to the original Tekken, featuring significant gameplay improvements.

Unplayable Character#

Wild Card#

Use's Kazuya's model and uses Roger/Alex's moveset.

Unlike the other characters, this character doesn't have any hitboxes making him invincible.

Finishing Arcade Mode with him will play the intro used for the Arcade version of Tekken 2 as his ending movie, and attempting to check the character's Command List within Practice Mode will crash the game.
