Miguel
At last, Manly Ma -- er... Miguel is revealed.
Miguel Caballero Rojo is the third new character to be revealed by the Tekken 6 development team. Having led a troubled life, this character has a reputation for a fiery personality and is extremely quick to anger. He trusts absolutely no one with the exception of his sister, and at the age of 15, he leaves home to live a life of wanton street-fighting and aimless destruction.
Some time later, he receives news that his sister is to be married. Although he does not approve of the wedding, he decides not to immediately intervene, choosing instead to witness the event from outside of the church. During the ceremony, an unexpected airstrike covers the area with explosions, leaving the surrounding area completely in ruins. Miguel miraculously survives, but an investigation underneath the rubble of the church reveals the lifeless corpse of his beloved sister. As soon as he discovers that the unprovoked airstrike was a direct order from the Mishima Zaibatsu, Miguel vows to avenge her death by dealing swift justice to Jin Kazama.
Although his profile is full of detail, very little is known about Miguel's techniques. Although no one has been able to summarize his offensive style yet, information obtained from Tekken 6 playtests so far reveals that Miguel's move list contains a special stance.
With 40 character slots and only 36 characters, Mokujin, and a random select box accounted for, that leaves about two new characters to be announced at a later date. Will they be new characters with totally unique styles, or will they turn out to be Tekken veterans not seen since Tekken Tag Tournament? Your guess is as good as ours.
