Tekken 3

Tekken 3 (鉄拳3) is a fighting game, the third entry in the Tekken series. The original arcade game initially had a limited Japanese release in November 1996, followed by a wide international release in March 1997, before being ported for the PlayStation in 1998. The original arcade version of the game was released in 2005 for the PlayStation 2 as part of Tekken 5's Arcade History mode. The game was re-released in 2018 as part of Sony's PlayStation Classic.
Tekken 3 features a largely new cast of characters, including the debut of several now-staple characters such as Jin Kazama, Ling Xiaoyu, Bryan Fury, Eddy Gordo, and Hwoarang, with a total of twenty-three characters. The home version includes a new beat 'em up mode called Tekken Force, and the bonus Tekken Ball mode.
The game was a major hit for both arcades and consoles, selling 35,000 arcade units and more than 8 million PlayStation copies worldwide, making Tekken 3 the fifth best-selling PlayStation game. Tekken 3 has since been cited as one of the greatest video games of all time. It was followed by Tekken Tag Tournament, a non-canon installment in 1999 in arcades and in 2000 for the PlayStation 2. The direct sequel, Tekken 4 was released in arcades and on the PlayStation 2 in 2001 and 2002, respectively.
