Two Fighting Games Have Just Released On Xbox, Including A '90s Surprise

Back on Saturday, one of the games we highlighted in our "Games Coming To Xbox Next Week" roundup was DEAD OR ALIVE 6 Last Round, which is officially available today on Xbox in a couple of forms. However, we didn't know at the time that the original Tekken would be coming to Xbox as well, so we thought we'd lump them both together here!

Let's start with Tekken, which is being released as part of the Arcade Archives 2 program from HAMSTER Corporation. It's an emulated version of the 1994 Japanese release in the arcades ("for the main part of the game"), and it's available on the Xbox Store right now at £14.99 / $16.99 for Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S.

The other game here is Dead or Alive 6 Last Round, which has a "Core Fighters" version that's free-to-play along with a paid release for £32.99 / $39.99. Last Round adds various new features compared to the original Dead or Alive 6 from 2019, including new characters, a photo mode, new costumes and a new lighting system.

However, it currently has a "Mostly Negative" set of reviews on Steam, with people complaining that it's essentially the same game with just a few minor tweaks.

We'll leave you with more details and trailers for both of these new fighting games down below.

Arcade Archives 2 TEKKEN (Xbox Series X|S)

"TEKKEN" is a 3D fighting game released by NAMCO LIMITED (current Bandai Namco Entertainment Inc.) in 1994. In "The Tekken Tournament," pugilists with their own hidden agendas clash to determine who possesses the ultimate fist. The game features a revolutionary control scheme where four buttons correspond to each limb, delivering an intuitive combat experience. Command a vast array of techniques as if you were controlling your own body!

Dead or Alive 6 Last Round (Xbox Series X|S)

Fan-favorite 3D fighting game DEAD OR ALIVE 6 is back with stylish moves, striking animations, and a cast of colorful characters to go head-to-head in the fighting game world's most extreme battles! Place, pose, and take picture-perfect screenshots of your favorite characters in the new Photo Mode. Play with the classic DOA6 roster and 5 additional DLC characters from the original version, along with new costumes. Whether you're a new player or a longtime veteran, DEAD OR ALIVE 6 Last Round has the action you're looking for.
