Back when Street Fighter x Tekken was unveiled in 2010, the announcement contained one note that many people have forgotten: Namco said it would be developing its own version of the game, Tekken x Street Fighter. While Street Fighter x Tekken is developed by Capcom and puts Tekken characters into the 2D style of Street Fighter, Tekken x Street Fighter would do the opposite, incorporating Street Fighter characters into Tekken’s universe and adding 3D combat arenas.
Two years later, we’ve hardly heard a thing about Tekken x Street Fighter -- minus some hand-drawn artwork tweeted by producer Katsuhiro Harada late last year -- causing many to speculate that the game may have moved to next-gen consoles. In a new interview, Hirada says that isn’t the case, as Namco is still targeting current hardware.
"There's still a large number of players out there with a PlayStation 3 or Xbox 360 who are looking forward to the game," Harada told Eurogamer, "so we feel it's probably more relevant to get the title out to them on the current hardware. We're not completely sure, but that's the direction at this moment."
