A new character in Namco’s forthcoming Tekken 6 has been unveiled today, taking the form of a large robotic combatant known only as ‘Nancy’.
According to Internet reports, Nancy’s bulk is so vast that it takes up a significant portion of the screen, and appears as your opponent in one of the game’s bonus rounds. More importantly, however, is that this latest combatant will not block any of your attacks, and can land hits against you even while being attacked.
Alarmingly, Nancy can also withstand a huge amount of damage, possessing a life bar that is far greater than any other fighter in the game. It is currently unknown whether or not ‘she’ will be playable.
Nancy isn’t the only robot to grace a Tekken game, and follows hot on the heels of a number of robotic adversaries, including the ‘Jack’ series and Combot.
Tekken 6 is due out on PlayStation 3 in late 2008.
