Playable Jacks
Edit
Jack (Tekken)
Edit
The original Jack is a super slaughtering military machine and super killing robot developed by the former Soviet Union. The Russian military got wind of Kazuya's world coup d'etat plans right away and sent Jack to the tournament to get rid of him. Nothing but a robot could boast of his violent attacks and stupendous power.
In his ending, Jack is strapped onto a machine. More Jacks are shown being activated. The scene ends with metal doors closing, which say "Danger".
The original Jack is the rival of Prototype Jack.
Jack-2 (Tekken 2)
Edit
Jack-2 is an upgrade of Jack, who appeared in the original Tekken game. Jack-2 makes his only canonical appearance in Tekken 2. He is also in Tekken Tag Tournament, but this game is non-canonical. Jack-2, like the original Jack, is rivals with Prototype Jack. He is destroyed by Doctor Abel, which is shown in Jack-2's Tekken 2 ending.
Gun Jack (Tekken 3)
Edit
Jane, still haunted by memories of Jack-2's fate nineteen years later, works on a way to restore Jack-2. She learns that most of the technology responsible for Jack-2's A.I. was created by Mishima Heavy Industries, a subsidiary of the Mishima Zaibatsu. She also finds the ground work for something called "Project Gun Jack", an upgraded Jack with the addition of a pivot gun. Jane snuck into Mishima Heavy Industries and secretly installed the hidden program. Dr. Abel tried to destroy this version of Jack by firing an electromagnetic burst from a satellite, but he ultimately failed due to Gun Jack's energy shield protecting himself and Jane.
At the third tournament's conclusion, Heihachi Mishima's Tekken Force attacked Jane. She was rescued by Gun Jack, who was destroyed by the onslaught of gunfire. Jane escaped with the help of G Corporation.
Jack-5 (Tekken 5)
Edit
Jack-5 was created by Jane as an upgrade of Jack-4 and used the fifth tournament as a means of testing Jack-5. Returning to have his emotion program installed, Jane downloads Gun Jack's memories into him, but the results cause him to go berserk, ripping free and trashing the lab. As he brings down his arms in a crushing blow on Jane, the memories re-assert themselves and Jack stops, looking over his body in confusion. Jane goes to him and he picks her up in his arms gently, his original personality fully restored.
Jack-6 (Tekken 6)
Edit
Jane successfully restored Jack-5's memory at the completion of the 5th King of Iron Fist Tournament. It was not long until the Mishima Zaibatsu decided to make their own Jack model, which has been built with 10 times the power of Jack 5. The new G-Corporation leader Kazuya Mishima also demanded a new Jack model eventually creating Jack-6. They decided to test Jack 6 in the King of Iron Fist Tournament 6 to destroy the Mishima Zaibatsu.
Trivia
Edit

Non-playable Jacks
Edit
Jack-4 (Tekken 5)
Edit
Jack-4 is a non-playable character in the Tekken series of fighting games. This version was mass-produced and sent to attack Heihachi Mishima and Kazuya Mishima at Hon-Maru. Apparently, this model has a self-destruct feature, as shown in the Tekken 5 opening movie, where a Jack-4's head opens up to reveal an internal time bomb. The massive explosion wasn't enough to kill Heihachi, but the blast did however throw him several miles as well as free Jinpachi Mishima from his imprisonment.
Several Jack-4's also appear in the Scenario Campaign Mode of Tekken 6, fighting for the G Corporation.
Despite Jack-4 only appearing in Tekken 5, it's considered the Tekken 4-era Jack, since it first appears in the game's opening, set during the fourth tournament, and it's numbered "4". Jack-4 fills the lack of any Jack in Tekken 4, making later Jacks' number match the game's.
