Whereas in previous Tekken games Combot was simply another mimic character (like the wooden dummy Mokujin or metal dummy Tetsujin) whose moveset matched a randomly selected character, Fight Lab gives you the ability to–as Lee wanted–build your ultimate fighter. If you play to the end, you even get treated to a battle against a few flagship characters from another popular fighting game franchise… But the coolest part about Fight Lab is that for everything you do correctly, your Combot gains XP, which can be spent on unlocking and equiping moves to your Combot. The story is also so whacky and random that it’s simply to follow and easily enjoyable, with random cameos and a few good twists to challenges. Stretched for time and resources, Lee decides to bring out the old Combot from Tekken 4 and retrain it to be the ultimate fighting machine.įight Lab takes you through five chapters that teach both the mechanics of the game and allow players to hone their skills in actual battle.
But, being the super-arrogant, egotistical airhead he is, Lee accidentally deletes the new Combot’s A.I.
The premise is a great blend of the Tekken series’ increasingly whacky humor: Lee, under his alternate identity of Violet, is trying to design his Combot to be the ultimate fighting machine. Tekken Tag Tournament 2 has a few typical Modes around, but the newest is the Fight Lab, a mode that’s half story and half-Tutorial Mode. The usual responses follow any attempt I’ve ever made to get people on the Tekken bandwagon: “I hate Tekken,” or “Your lifebar goes down so low after 3 hits!” or “Tekken’s too hard to understand!” While anyone who’s played the series over the years could attest to how much the series has evolved over the years, no game proves its accessibility better than Tekken Tag Tournament 2, which succeeds as both an invitation to new players and just being an all-around fun game. As a fan of the Tekken series for a pretty longtime, it’s tough inviting friends to play with me who have never touched a Tekken game in their life.
