These are all broadly referred to as Tekken Force mode. Tekken Force mode debuted in Tekken 3 but in that game it was presented as a sidescrolling beat-'em-up rather than true 3D free-roam. Tekken 7 has no Tekken Force mode and Tekken 8 only has a brief free-roam mode in the campaign's Chapter 10.</ref>
