Snoop Dogg is the rapper featured with a stage and song in Tekken Tag Tournament 2.
The collaboration was announced by Namco Bandai at E3 2012 for the console version of the game. Snoop recorded “Knocc ’Em Down,” an original track created for the title, bringing hip-hop directly into a series better known for electronic, rock, and techno-influenced soundtracks.
The game also included the Snoop Dogg Stage, where the rapper appears as a non-playable cameo. The stage was offered as downloadable content and, in some markets, as a pre-order bonus. Its presentation used Snoop-themed imagery rather than turning him into a standard combatant.
A common mix-up is to treat Snoop Dogg as a playable Tekken fighter. He was not a regular playable character in Tag Tournament 2; his connection was the themed arena, cameo appearance, and original song. The game itself first appeared in arcades in 2011 before its console release in 2012.
