Tekken 5 (鉄拳5) is the sixth main installment in the popular Tekken series. It also marks the tenth anniversary of the series. It was updated for the PlayStation Portable and PlayStation 3 as Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection and succeeded by Tekken 6.
Mere moments after Jin Kazama's departure from the Hon-Maru dojo, military helicopters approach and begin deploying Jack-4 pods into the building. Heihachi Mishima and his son, Kazuya, awaken to a squadron bursting through the walls. The Jack-4's target Heihachi, but both father and son fight them off. However, Kazuya betrays Heihachi by throwing him into a group of the androids and escapes. The Jack-4s hold down Heihachi while one activates its detonator, creating a huge explosion as Hon-Maru goes up in flames. The only witness to the event is Raven, a mysterious agent clad in black, who relays to his command the death of Heihachi and destroys a Jack-4 coming for him while leaving.
The next day, Heihachi's death is declared all over the world and everyone foresees the end of the Mishima Zaibatsu. However, someone else has already taken over the company and business continues as usual. Two months later, the King of Iron Fist Tournament 5 is announced.
Jin is plagued by nightmares triggering the Devil gene and he decides to end it by entering the tournament. Meanwhile, Kazuya, who deduces the Jack-4s were sent by G Corporation and wishes to know, as he believes, why they also targeted him, also enters to find out who in G Corporation sent them and who is in control of the Mishima Zaibatsu.
The secret sponsor of the tournament and owner of the Mishima Zaibatsu is finally revealed to be Jinpachi Mishima, the father of Heihachi, and who was missing for the past fifty years. Jinpachi is the founder of the Mishima Zaibatsu and was a respected martial artist, until Heihachi stole the company from him. Heihachi later imprisoned him underneath the Hon-Maru after Jinpachi attempted a coup d'état. Jinpachi survived due to a Devil entity taking over his mind and granting him immortality, and was finally freed from his prison in the destruction of the Hon-Maru. Jinpachi, consumed by the Devil and in a desperate act of morality, announced the tournament in hopes that someone will kill him and put an end to his potential reign of terror.
Eventually Jin makes it to the final and faces his Devil-infused great-grandfather in combat. Ultimately, Jin manages to defeat Jinpachi, who dissolves into dust and disappears, his wish being fulfilled. Jin now takes over the Mishima Zaibatsu.
Tekken 5 is credited for taking the series back to its roots. It incorporates a faster, more fluid fighting system, improved graphics, returning characters, and some of the Tekken series' trademark infinite stages. New to Tekken 5 is the crush system which affects the vulnerability of a character while they attack. For example, a move with jumping properties, such as a hopkick, will be completely invulnerable during most of its animation time to all of an opponent's low attacks.
It also retains its wall juggling concept from Tekken 4, but the element is effectively less easy to abuse and easier to defend against. The home version is a collector's edition of sorts, as it includes the arcade versions of Tekken, Tekken 2, Tekken 3 and StarBlade (as a hidden game). Tekken 5 also allowed players to customize their fighter for the first time, allowing them to change the colors of their outfits, buy additional costumes (only available to a few characters), and equip them with items by using money gained from playing the Story, Survival, Time Attack, the side-story Devil Within, and Arcade Battle modes.
Tekken 5 includes a fighting minigame in direct lineage to the Tekken Force modes in Tekken 3 and Tekken 4 called Devil Within. This minigame follows the adventures of Jin Kazama as he searches the G Corporation in search for information on his missing mother and other answers. Being somewhat story oriented, the player is not permitted to use their own choice of characters like previous iterations. The game also uses a limited button system, incorporating a Block and Jump button as well as sizing down the attack buttons to simple "Punch" and "Kick" buttons (though, some of Jin's fighting special moves can still be performed such as his Demon's Paw). Along with fighting various Jack models in the mini-game, the player must pursue minor key quests to proceed. This mode is one of the two ways to unlock the playable version of Jin's Devil incarnation, Devil Jin.
