Tekken 5 Online in Europe this November

After being quiet for so long, Namco Bandai has sent a press release stating that the much-awaited Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection Online will finally be available in Europe this coming November.

The press release failed, however, to mention pricing and the specific date the downloadable title will go live at the PS Store. Anyway, we know this is very exciting for our European friends especially when the other markets have been enjoying Tekken 5 Online for a couple of weeks now.

It went live first in Japan on August 1 while North America had it on August 30. It was priced for US$ 29.99 for full download and just US$ 9.99 for upgrade. Some of the exciting features that will be made available with Tekken 5 Online include:

• Opti Match, Quick Match, Custom Match, and Friend Match option
• Study your opponents by viewing their stats and watching them battle
• Psych out your next opponent with live voice chat
• Online News Ticker posting the weekly, monthly and overall rank leaders at any given point
• Two new single-player modes, including Practice Mode, where you can hone your reflexes before battling online, and Survival Mode in which you must defeat as many opponents as possible with a limited health bar
