Tekken Tag Tournament is the fourth installment in the popular Tekken fighting game series. It, however, is not canonical to the Tekken storyline; but nonetheless is the most popular installment to date among fans due to polished gameplay and complete game content.

Gameplay

Tekken Tag Tournament, being the first Tekken title for the PlayStation 2, featured vastly detailed graphics and improved quality music. It was also notable for having the largest character roster in the series, boasting an extravagant 38 characters, all returning from the previous installments in the series, save for the boss character Unknown who has made her only appearance in this game. Finally, its most important feature is its tag system. A player selects two characters and may tag out between them to utilize special combos and throws.

Story

Tekken Tag Tournament, being a non-canon game, features no storyline. It is more of a compilation of the Tekken series giving fans the opportunity to play as almost every character in the series up to that point.

Speculation

Much debate has come from fans regarding the game's boss character Unknown. Most speculate that Tekken Tag Tournament features all the fighters exsisting in a dream world, all coming to together (and subsequently) teaming up to fight a common evil. Some consensus regarding these speculations are evident by Unknown's CG ending, where she (apparently) escapes from the Wolf demon sprit possessing her body, as well as Ogre's ending depicting him (it) about to engage in a fight with Unknown. However, only further games may tell if these speculations (and Unknown's history) are notable to any canon.
