Introduction

Armor King II (in British: Armour King) is a character in the Tekken fighting game series. He is the younger brother of the Armor King from the early Tekken games and did not appear as playable character until Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection. He later returned for Tekken 6 and Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion.

His past was kept a mystery to keep fans wondering if the first Armor King hadn't really died prior to the events of Tekken 4, and as such, very little is known about him. What little is known seems to imply that he and his brother were a wrestling tag team, both using the same outfit and name. Why his brother decided to keep this a secret from the second King is unknown.

Craig Marduk is walking when he notices Armor King behind him. Armor King remains silent. Marduk says, "I don't know who you are, but you'll pay for messing with me!" After Armor King wins, Marduk, who is now on the ground, asks, "Who the hell are you?" Armor King does not say anything, but kicks Marduk in the head and he raises a fist while growling.

Ending Animation

Armor King defeats Jinpachi Mishima, and Jinpachi dissolves into dust while Armor King watches. After Jinpachi dissolves into dust, Armor King turns around and begins to walk away. As he walks away, he passes King, who is walking towards him. Armor King walks past him. Then, King runs up to him and tries to get his attention. Suddenly, Armor King kicks King in the stomach, grabs him, jumps high into the air, and piledrives him into the ground, head first. After King's body hits the ground, Armor King looks at him for a few seconds before walking away. King regains his strength after a few seconds and gets up off of the ground. Then, King says (growls), "I know that move from somewhere."

Who is this man hidden behind the black jaguar mask and steel disguised as Armor King? What's his relationship to King and for what reason did he attack Craig?

Still hidden in mystery, the gong for The King of Iron Fist Tournament 6 has already been rung.
