Tekken 5 now available for download on Japanese PS3s

Recommended Videos

PlayStation 3 owners in Japan and Hong Kong got a surprise download today: Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection. This previously PSP-only title is now availble to gamers in the East for “2000 yen ($16.80) on Sony’s Japan store, and $125HK ($16.07) on the Hong Kong store.”

Is it upgraded for the PS3? Yes. Unlike other consoles who offer downloadable content, Sony seems pleased to pack its downloadable ports with a little extra firepower — thanks to a little extra hard drive space. According to Sony, Dark Resurrection will run “at full HD (in up to 720p or 1080p) at a promised 60 frames per second” and allow fans to play as “boss character Jinpachi Mishima” for the first time. No word yet on a U.S. release, though honestly it can’t be long.
