Tekken Tag Tournament 2 didn't just bring back tag combat. It brought back the entire roster and dared you to master every single one. The Tekken Tag Tournament 2 We are Tekken Edition for PlayStation 3 wraps the game in a collector's metalpack alongside a remix soundtrack, the original soundtrack, a behind-the-scenes DVD, and Bound, the hardcover art book covering the art of Tekken.

This is PS3-era fighting game packaging done right, back when disc-based extras still meant popping in a physical DVD to watch developers talk about frame data and animation. The dual soundtrack approach is a nice touch, giving you both the purist's version and the remixed take for those who want their King of Iron Fist Tournament with a different tempo. But the real draw here is Bound.

Tekken's character design history is decades deep, and having that art collected in hardcover form is the kind of thing that separates a fighting game fan from a fighting game collector. The metalpack gives it that extra bit of shelf authority over a standard case. For anyone who grew up in arcades watching strangers pull off ten-hit combos, this edition is a time capsule of when Tekken was operating at full power.
