'''Tekken 6''' is a one-on-one [[fighting]] arcade game that was released by [[Namco]] on [[November 26]], [[2007]]; it was the first game to run upon the company's then-new System 357 hardware and is the eighth title in the [[:Category:Tekken|Tekken series]]. The players must for an eighth time use an 8-way joystick and four buttons (two for left and right punches, and two for left and right kicks), to take control for two of thirty-nine fighters (thirty-four of whom are returning ones from the seven previous titles, but five of whom are new ones: '''Robert "Bob" Richards''', '''Jack 6''', '''Leo Kliesen''', '''Miguel Caballero Rojo''', and '''Zafina''') - and there are also two new bosses ('''Azazel''', and '''Nancy-MI847J''', who are both, much like '''Jinpachi Mishima''', from that previous title, unplayable). In [[2008]], this game received an update, named '''[[Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion]]'''; it introduced two more new characters ('''Alisa Bosconovitch''' and '''Lars Alexandersson'''), along with a gold version of the aforementioned '''Azazel''' (who also stayed unplayable in this version), and six new stages When the game was ported to the [[Sony PlayStation 3]] for the US on [[October 27]], [[2009]] (and later in Japan and the EU two and three days after that day), it added a new mode called '''Scenario Campaign''' (that aforementioned '''Nancy-MI847J''' had also become playable for its second stage) - and this was also the first time a PlayStation port of a Tekken title was first released for the United States (as opposed to the franchise's home country of Japan, like all the previous PS ports).

When the game was ported to the [[PlayStation 3]] for the US on October 27, [[2009]], it added a new mode called '''Scenario Campaign'''. This was the first time a PlayStation port of a Tekken title was first released for the United States.
One month later, on [[November 24]], 2009, the game was also ported to the [[Sony PlayStation Portable]] for the US (and later for the EU on [[December 11]] of that same year, and Japan on [[January 14]], [[2010]]); this version removed the aforementioned '''Scenario Campaign''' mode, some "Customization" options, "Achievements" & "Trophies", all the characters' "special outfits" and the "Stage Select" feature. As a result of '''Scenario Campaign''' mode being removed, it also made '''Alisa''' and '''Lars''' playable for '''Arena Mode''', and gave them their own ending sequences - and two of its old stages were made unplayable outside of '''Arcade''', '''Story''', '''Time Attack''' and '''Survival''' Modes (but several new ones which could only get activated by entering certain cheat codes were added). This was also the last Tekken title whose Japanese version featured [[wp:Daisuke Gōri|Daisuke Gōri]] (1952-2010) as the voice for '''Heihachi Mishima''', before he died aged 57; [[wp:Unshō Ishizuka|Unshō Ishizuka]] (1951-2018), who also voiced Professor Oak in the original Japanese dub of the [[Pokémon]] television show, took over from him in [[Tekken Tag Tournament 2]] (which made the original [[Tekken Tag Tournament]] into the first game for a sub-series of the same name) in [[2011]].
The game was ported to the [[PSP]] and released on November 24, [[2009]] in the US, on December 11, [[2009]] in the [[EU]], and on January 14, [[2010]] in Japan. This version lacked the '''Scenario Campaign''' mode, some "Customization" options, "Achievements" & "Trophies", all the characters' "special outfits" and the "Stage Select" features. As a result of '''Scenario Campaign''' mode being removed, it also made '''Alisa''' and '''Lars''' playable for '''Arena Mode''', and gave them their own ending sequences.
