Tekken 5 confirmed?

Flash movie points to April 28th unveiling. So, tomorrow, then. Nina Williams... wins.

Rumours of Tekken 5's development have been circulating for a little while now, and the buzz seems to indicate that it will make a splash at E3 next month (as with every other game in the Western world by the looks of it). Well, now it looks more or less certain, unless the Flash movie on the front page of Yamasa Slot World is some sort of elaborate fake, or something else entirely.

Although it offers very little to get excited about (loud and rubbish music aside), there are some glimpses of the logo and Tekken's glossy CG movies, including the odd body-slam and young Japanese lady flapping her hair. The movie ends with news that more information will be released on April 28th, which is tomorrow, so expect to hear more in the near future.

We tried to contact Namco Europe for comment this morning, but couldn't get past its impenetrable phone system. (True story!)
