Introduction

Tekken 4 is the fifth installment in the Tekken series. First released in arcades in July, 2001, it was released on Playstation 2 in March 28th, 2002 for Japan, September 13th, 2002 for Europe and September 23rd, 2002 for North America.

Game Mechanics

Tekken 4 introduced significant new gameplay changes from the previous games in the series. For the first time, it allowed players to maneuver around an arena interacting with walls and other obstacles for extra damage. These "environmental hazards" in turn allowed players to juggle opponents for consecutive combos and allowed the designers to implement a "switch maneuver", which let players escape from cornering and throw the tide in their favor. Also, the game engine had been tweaked to be more focused on the environment, causing the characters to move more slowly and fluidly than in Tekken Tag Tournament. Finally, the game introduced a brand new graphics system, that featured increased lighting, dynamic physics, and smoother surfaces.
