Tekken 7 Announced

Tekken 7 is coming to new-gen consoles, Bandai Namco announced at Evo 2014.

The 3D fighting franchise returns using Epic Games' Unreal Engine 4.

“With Unreal Engine 4, we could rapidly achieve visual quality expected on next-gen platform and go beyond it," game director Katsuhiro Harada said. "Not only is Unreal Engine 4 powerful and easy to use, but it allows us to immediately bring Tekken 7 to any platform we desire.”

Harada also explained that not needing to develop a new engine for Tekken to function on new hardware gave the development team the chance to "focus our efforts on making Tekken 7 the best possible game."

2 things I got of importance form the trailer,

1.Kazuya will be in the lead for a change which is music to my ears as a HUGE Kazuya fan who has wanted him to return as the central protaganist since Tekken 1.

and

2.This is apparently the "Final Battle" which has me a bit worried.

But I'm pretty ecstatic for this, although I was not all that happy with Tekken 6 I did get a lot of enjoyement out of Tekken Tag Tournament 2 and Tekken Revolution.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed for the return of Tekken Force as well as realistic level design from Tekken 4, although to be honest I doubt either of the 2 will return, but still heres hoping.
