It may not be hitting consoles until sometime this fall (http://www.joystiq.com/2011/12/10/tekken-tag-tournament-2-coming-to-consoles-holiday-2012/), but Tekken Tag Tournament 2 (http://www.joystiq.com/game/tekken-tag-tournament-2) has been in Japanese arcades since September of last year, which in fighting game terms is a hundred billion years. The next step in the fighting game chain of evolution is, of course, the upgraded/altered/enhanced version, and thus Tekken Unlimited Tag Tournament 2 is born.
Unveiled during this year's AOU Amusement Expo in Japan, Tekken Unlimited Tag Tournament 2 allows for 2-on-2 battles like the original TTT2, but also 1-on-1 fighting like traditional Tekken games, as well as 1-on-2 fighting. The game's character balance has been adjusted to ensure that 1-on-2 battles are mechanically fair, according to Andriasang (http://andriasang.com/con006/tekken_tag_unlimited_detailed/). Arcade owners who have already purchased Tekken Tag Tournament 2 will be able to upgrade to Unlimited free of charge. Let's hope these additions and improvements are reflected in this fall's console release.
