He is a slippery character able to play a retreating spacing game, heal himself, and escape his opponents pressure in unexpected ways. Tekken not only stopped chasing Street Fighter, it broke from Virtua Fighter as well. Outside of powerful stance-based 50/50s, his main demand is creativity. So rather than building upon 1 and 2, we decided to start over at 3. Since Tekken 6 he can use two swords at the same time. Yoshimitsu is a wildly unconventional trickster who zigzags the rules of Tekken. While the most attacks are done with his fists and legs in the Tekken games, he also has a sword for special attacks. Next up, VIELs recreation of TEKKEN 3s Forest Law and Yoshimitsu.Once again, the speed of the human performer is adjusted in the editing to match the flow of the in-game animation (because humans cant move faster than gravity and physics, yknow). Yoshimitsu was revealed for Tekken 7 in summer 2015. Yoshimitsu also made it into the crossover game Street Fighter X Tekken in 2012 where his Tekken 3 costume was used for him. The fighting style is similar to the Tekken counterpart but the visual look is very different and they are not the same persons due to the SC games playing hundreds of years ago. In SoulCalibur V (2012) and SoulCalibur VI (2018) he was one of the initially playable characters and was revealed before the launch of both games. He is also the only character in the game to have a weapon - a 'light sabre' style sword, that he can use to attack with from long range.

Tekken Yoshimitsu has a totally original set of moves that were first introduced in the original Tekken game way back in 1994. He debuted in the first Tekken in 1994 and returned in all Tekken sequels, since SoulCalibur I he is also a part of the series but usually an unlockable character. Yoshimitsu is easily one of the most original and exciting characters in a fighting game ever. Yoshimitsu is a very unique character who has a different design or even 2-3 in every new game he appears in.
