#Akuma tekken 7 series
However, going from the clips in the trailer that was shown at King of the Iron Fist 2015, there seems to be some links between the Tekken series “Devil Gene” and the Street Fighter “Satsui no hadou” (or Dark Hadou) power. Something to do with stopping Heihachi and Kazuya… I’m not too familiar with the story for this game as I’m waiting for the home console port that will appear sometime in the future. This is the first time that someone from not only outside the Tekken roster has appear in a mainline Tekken game but this is the first time that someone from outside the Namco Bandai family of games has come into the Tekken games from a whole different company.Īkuma looks to not only be a selectable fighter in Tekken 7, but he looks to be a part of the main plot for the game too. However, this is something completely different. We also had the i games, but they don’t count. It featured characters from both franchises fighting one another. Capcom did their spot with the Street Fighter X Tekken game a couple of years back. Now the crossover between Tekken & Street Fighter is old news. One of these new characters… AKUMA FROM STREET FIGHTER!!
#Akuma tekken 7 update
Personally, I have no idea who won, but Director and Producer Katsuhiro Harada announced an upcoming major update for the game titled “Fated Retribution,” which will bring new characters, costumes and a graphics overhaul. Today there was a King of the Iron Fist Tournament in Japan for the Tekken gaming series, a lot of the fights were done with the Tekken 7 arcade units. After all, what better way to kill a monster, than with a monster?Įither way, we’ll find out when Tekken 7 arrives on June 2nd.Updated with official footage from Bandai-Namco!Įxcuse me sir, you seem to have gotten some Street Fighter in my Tekken game… But since Tekken 7 is meant to be the culmination of the Mishima family saga, maybe Akuma is the reason it ends definitively. He killed his own brother Goken in cold blood, so how does he owe Kazumi? We don’t know, yet. She did, and now he’s here to pay off his debt. But with Akuma, there’s something else here.Īs you see in the trailer, Kazumi Mishima, wife of Heihachi, calls in a debt on Akuma to get him to kill Heihachi should she fall. Did they really add anything to the story? Not really, they were just fan service. Heihachi Mishima for example was in Soul Calibur II along with Link from Legend of Zelda and Spawn from the Image Comics series. We’ve had plenty of fighting games have random crossovers with no explanation. If you don’t believe that, just watch his reveal trailer.īut even more than seeing the Street Fighter style in Tekken, there’s something else going on here. Why? Because Akuma is a beast, and it’s clear that the team at Bandai Namco aren’t shorting him on his epic power by bringing him from the world of Street Fighter to the world of Tekken. But, is his crossover inclusion a good thing? In a few months, he’ll official make his debut in the Tekken franchise via Tekken 7: Fated Retribution. And yet, he is one of the most famous, and powerful, villains in video game history. A man who is still shrouded in mystery to this day. Akuma, a name that is feared and respected by all who know the Street Fighter franchise.
