Portable Release A screenshot of the PSP version Namco themselves relieved their interest in doing this, however they stated that it would be difficult as Sony and Microsoft would be reluctant to agree to have the two versions be different. There are rumors that console exclusive characters similar to the vein of the Soul Calibur franchise's approach would happen for the console versions. Previous to this announcement, it was announced by Namco during a press conference that Tekken 6.0 would not be appearing on any console, and that Tekken 6 Bloodline Rebellion would replace it. The release was later set at October 27, 2009. On October 8th, 2008, it was revealed by Katsuhiro Harada that Namco will release Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion on the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 in Fall 2009 with more content than the arcade version. Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion was released in Japanese and North American arcades on the 18th of December 2008, with a home console release confirmed by Namco Bandai themselves at a pre- Tokyo Game Show event.

Two brand new characters, Lars Alexandersson and Alisa Boskonovitch will also be included. Bloodline Rebellion retains all features introduced in Tekken 6 (the bound and rage systems, as well as item moves), and all of the characters in Tekken 6 are set to return. Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion is an updated version of Tekken 6 (originally being an Arcade exclusive).
