[edit] Introduction
Gun Jack is a character in the Tekken fighting game series. Gun Jack appears in Tekken 3, Tekken Tag Tournament, and Tekken Advance. The last two games are non-canonical. During Ganryu's absence in Tekken 3, Gun Jack took some of his unique moves (such as Sumo Stomp.). Gun Jack's successor, Jack-5, does not have the unique Ganryu moves that Gun Jack has. Dr. Abel also tries to destroy this Jack using the same method he used to destroy Jack-2, but he fails because Gun Jack generates a force field that protects himself. Gun Jack also protected Jane when the Tekken Force attacked her inside Mishima Zaibatsu Heavy Industries.
[edit] Trivia
- An upgraded Gun Jack appears in Devil Within, a side game in Tekken 5. It is capable of firing powerful projectiles.
- In Tekken 3, Gun Jack is available after beating the game three times.
[edit] Story
Jack-2 is reborn... When Jane, now a physicist, was eight years old, she was rescued from a bacteriological war by the Russian military robot Jack-2. However, Jack-2 was later destroyed by a satellite weapon as Jane, still a young girl, watched in horror.
Jane, now 27, could not forget the nightmare of Jack-2 having collapsed beside her. She spent 10 years restoring Jack-2 to 90% functionality, but it seemed to have lost the human characteristics that set it apart from Jack.
Jane worked hard analyzing the program in order to return to Jack-2 the gentle soul which had saved her life. Through detailed analysis, she found that most of Jack-2's programming was created by Mishima Heavy Industry, one of the subsidiaries of the Mishima Zaibatsu. Moreover, she discovered a hidden program... 'Project Gun Jack'. It laid the groundwork for a new weapon, a pivot gun.
In order to restore Jack-2 completely, Jane had to approach the Mishima Zaibatsu and solve the mystery of the project. She quickly installed the hidden program and brought the newly dubbed Gun Jack to the Mishima Zaibatsu.
[edit] Ending Animation "Complete?"
A computer with the words "King of Iron Fist Tournament" and a picture of Gun Jack are shown. Jane smiles and Gun Jack awakens. Gun Jack puts Jane on his shoulder and the two go outside. A satelite image closes in on Gun Jack and Jane. Dr. Abel is the one watching Gun Jack and Jane. The satelite then fires a laser at Gun Jack's location. Fortunately, Gun Jack was able to block the attack with a force-field, and the two survive.
Gun Jack is featured as a playable character in Tekken Tag Tournament. However, Tekken Tag Tournament is not a part of the Tekken series' canonical storyline. This is Gun Jack's last appearance as a playable character.
[edit] Ending Animation
Gun Jack and Jack-2 practice their moves together. The moves that they perform look like the moves that they can perform during gameplay (such as "Double Axe", "High and Low Cross Cut", and "Cossack Kicks"). The video ends with both of them performing their "Cossack Kicks" with their backs facing the screen. This ending takes place in King 2nd's stage.
[edit] Devil Within
Gun Jack appears in the Devil Within side game in Tekken 5. He is the final boss of Level 1. This is a modified version, and it can fire powerful projectile attacks. It is unknown if Devil Within is canonical or not.
