Tekken 7 Game Director thanks fans
Katsuhiro Harada, the director of the game, thanked the gaming community on Twitter for its “continued support” of the series. Additionally, he disclosed that over 54 million copies of the Tekken series had been sold globally.
The future of Tekken games
In contrast to other fighting game franchises, Tekken has had a mediocre amount of success over the years. Super Smash Bros., the all-time best-selling fighting game, has sold over 28 million copies globally.
Since Namco’s 1994 debut of the initial Tekken game, there have been several variations, including crossovers with Street Fighter in 2012’s Street Fighter X Tekken and the Pokemon series in 2015’s Pokkén Tournament. With Tekken Card Tournament in 2013 and Tekken Mobile in 2018, Tekken also entered the mobile gaming market.
Before formally unveiling Tekken 8 in September during Sony’s State of Play conference, Bandai Namco initially unveiled a teaser for the game during EVO 2022. The title will mark the debut of a fighting game created with Unreal Engine 5. Another clip for Tekken 8 that was recently displayed during The Game Awards was a tease from the developer. The game will be released on Steam, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and Series S, and Microsoft Windows. The game will most likely be released in 2023.
