News: The next fighting name in the Tekken franchise has finally arrived with some familiar faces and new characters as well.

Tekken 7 is now available on Xbox One, PS4 and PC. Tekken 7 was developed at Bandai Namco Entertainment Inc.’s Tokyo, Japan studio under the leadership of franchise director, Katsuhiro Harada. Powered by Unreal Engine 4, Tekken 7 sets new standards in graphics quality for the series and the fighting game genre, featuring highly detailed characters, dynamic animations, and unique environments. Tekken 7 features numerous modes and enhancements beyond its arcade counterpart, including an in-depth story mode that enables players to fully experience the epic Tekken canon storyline. Players will also be able to check out new fighters such as Akuma from Ultra Street Fighter IV, Kazumi Mishima, Claudio, Josie, Shaheen, Katarina, Lucky Chloe, Gigas, and master their respective fighting styles. Tekken 7 also delivers new abilities for players to employ during bouts such as Rage Arts, Power Crushes, and Rage Drives; all designed to increase the tension of each battle within the game.
