Tekken 2 is the second game in the Tekken series, it made various improvements over its predecessor in terms of graphics and features. All the characters from Tekken returned and eight new characters were added to the character roster along with new moves and combos. Two years have passed since Kazuya Mishima won the first King of Iron Fist Tournament and threw his defeated father Heihachi Mishima off of a cliff. Kazuya being now the owner of the Mishima Zaibatsu chooses to hold a second tournament to mark another step on his path to domination, even as rumors that he has made a deal with the devil begin to circulate.
