BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment today announced the worldwide release of Galaga: TEKKEN 20^TH Anniversary Edition mobile game. The new crossover game is available now from the App Store and Google Play as a free download for iOS and Android powered mobile devices. This over-the-top crossover game celebrates the 20^th anniversary of BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment’s famed TEKKEN fighting game franchise by combining its characters with the gameplay of Galaga; one of the company’s most well-known classic arcade games.

Katsuhiro Harada, Game Director and Chief Producer of the TEKKEN series at BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment Inc said the following on this wild crossover:

The game will also allow players to use TEKKEN’s famed “Tag” mechanic to call upon an additional character to the game board and double the damage players can deal against enemies. Lastly as an added surprise, special attacks featuring other classic BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment game characters can also be used to destroy multiple enemies at once in visually spectacular ways.

Galaga: TEKKEN 20^TH Anniversary Edition is available for free download now on both the App Store and Google Play.
