Tekken 5 confirmed!

Ahead of next week's E3 show in LA, Namco have published a full list of what attendees can expect to see. Tekken 5 is the undoubted highlight, while the rest of the stand will be dominated by sequels such as Xenosaga II, Ace Combat 5, Dead to Rights II, Time Crisis: Crisis Zone and Smash Court Tennis Pro Tournament 2.

New content includes Death By Degrees (starring Tekken's Nina Williams), Ghosthunter, Baten Kaitos, The Adversary and - ahem - Taikon Drum Master.

Beyond its now-confirmed existence, little is known of Tekken 5, the latest in the legendary fighting series. We'll be at the show, which kicks off next week - expect on-the-spot reports then...
