History

Tekken 3

Ogre's true backstory is unknown, with only rumors and legends providing any information about his existence and purpose. Legends say Ogre was an ancient war weapon left behind by aliens many years ago. He later was worshipped by the Aztec as a God of Fighting.

Many years after Heihachi reclaimed control of the Mishima Zaibatsu, he formed the Tekken Force, his own military group. One of the missions of the Tekken Force was to search an ancient temple located somewhere in Mexico. Soon after they arrived there, Heihachi learned that his entire force had been obliterated by The God of Fighting, Ogre. Heihachi saw the power of Ogre and sought to capture him.

After Ogre's release, he attacked many world renowned martial arts masters all over the world. Among his many victims were the original King and Jun Kazama, the mother of Jin. Ogre was also rumored to have attacked Baek Doo San, Lee Chaolan, Bruce Irvin, the original Kuma, Wang Jinrei, and Kunimitsu, hence he gained some of their moves. However, all of them survived as confirmed in Tekken 4 (Lee) and Tekken 5 (the rest) (except the original Kuma who died in old age afterwards and Kunimitsu who has mysteriously disappeared).

After Ogre's attack on Jun, Jin fled to Heihachi as she had previously instructed. Heihachi decided to train the boy to become a powerful fighter, but Heihachi's intentions were far more sinister than Jin could have predicted, as his true plan to was to make Jin powerful enough to lure Ogre to him.

Eventually, Heihachi announced the King of Iron Fist Tournament 3 as a way to bring Ogre out into the open. Ogre appeared as planned, but was defeated by Paul Phoenix. Ogre was not finished however, and morphed into True Ogre, a more powerful transformation. Heihachi once again attempted to capture Ogre, but his plan was ultimately foiled when Jin killed True Ogre, whose body dissolved into thin air.

Although Ogre was gone, Heihachi devised a new plan to make himself the ultimate warrior by using the genes of Ogre that were collected after the fight with Jin. But Ogre's genome could not be integrated without the Devil gene, which Heihachi did not possess. He knew that Jin and the ressurected Kazuya did, and announced the King of Iron Fist Tournament 4 to lure them out.

Trivia

• Although Ogre's actual unvieling was in Tekken 3, he played a minor role in the first two Tekken games. The pendant that Michelle had was sought after by both Kazuya and Heihachi. Whether or not they knew of Ogre at that time is unknown.
• Before a fight with or against Ogre, Ogre can be seen flying. However, he doesn't fly during a fight.
