The official YouTube channel for the Tekken franchise began streaming a promotional video for Galaga Tekken, a free smartphone game app that was first teased as an April Fools’ Day joke.
The game gives the player control over Tekken characters Kazuya and Heihachi, and the player must use them to destroy incoming foes in the style of the classic Galaga game.
The game premiered as a free app for iOS and Android devices on Thursday.
