Paris Games Week: Tekken 7 Coming To PS4

ByEric Chrisman|

At the Sony presentation at Paris Games Week, right after the latest trailer forStreet Fighter V, it was announced that the latest entry in another long-running fighting game series was coming to PS4,Tekken 7
.

Tekken 7has previously just been in arcades, but it has just now been announced for consoles. It is coming to the Xbox One as well, so it won’t be a console exclusive likeStreet Fighter Vis. Tekken 7 released in arcades this past March. A trailer was also released showing off footage not just of Tekken 7 but celebrating 20 years of the Tekken series and showing footage from all the previous titles. It was quite the trip down memory lane for Tekken fans, check it out below:

More from PlayStation 4

Tekken 7is the first game in the series to use the Unreal Engine, the game has a total of 27 fighters. The PS4 version will have some exclusive content for fans, but nothing was mentioned about what it would be (maybe some new exclusive fighters?). Also no release date as of yet, though most likely sometime next year.Tekken 7is also coming to PlayStation VR, but no further details were revealed.

I really hopeTekken 7releases well afterStreet Fighter V. While it’s true they are very different styles of fighting games, they are still both fighting games andStreet Fighter, despite also being a very-long running series, certainly has the excitement and momentum behind it. IfTekkenreally wants a chance to stay relevant again, they probably won’t release untilStreet Fighterhype has died down, so probably late next year is the earliest we’ll see this latest entry in the venerable fighting game series.
