Tekken 3D: Prime Edition will launch for 3DS in North America on February 14, 2012 and in Europe on February 17, Namco Bandai has announced.
The game features over 40 characters, Wi-Fi functionality, and promises “fast-paced dynamic battles” at 60 frames per second. 3DS users can exchange collectible Tekken cards using the system’s StreetPas feature.
“TEKKEN has a rich 16 year legacy, with the franchise first appearing on the Nintendo platforms in 2001 with TEKKEN ADVANCE™ for GAME BOY™ ADVANCE,” says Carlson Choi, Vice President of Marketing, NAMCO BANDAI Games America. “With the unique abilities of the Nintendo 3DS, we’re able to show the characters of the epic franchise in a way that has never been seen before, and fans are going to love how TEKKEN’s return to Nintendo systems has taken the series to new levels.”
Tekken 3D: Prime Edition also includes the full-length CG movie, Tekken: Blood Vengeance on the game card.
