Tekken 7: Fated Retribution, Akuma/Gouki announced as playable character

Ono signed off on letting Namco have their own take on SF characters for Tekken 7

in the stream they said Akuma was built from the ground up in the game. This opens up the possiblilites for other missing sf characters in V .. Dudley, Sakura etc and of course popular Tekken characters like Nina , Baek and others
 
"Looks at SFV's story mode" Akuma: I think Ill go see what the Mishima's are up to..

Seriously I need a translation.

He owes Kazumi a favor.
Asked him to body Heihachi if he goes overboard and does too much and she can't stop him
It is that time. Time to raginf demon Heihachi
 
The thing I am most anticipate for is what fashion and crazy cosplay I can do for Gouki in the game.

Give gouki high top fade with pizza strap to his back and holding can of beer.
 
Pikachu Libre for Tekken 7 and integrate him/her into the story. Let's see how silly you can make Akuma look with costumes in Tekken, Capcom have already done all they can on that front.

Since the story is a Mishima/Kazama family drama, I'm pretty sure regular Pikachu is going to make it.

Shhhhh! You'll bring the wrath of TekkenGAF upon you if you speak such blasphemy.
 
While Akuma is super sick,the updated graphics and new costumes are the best part. T7 looked good, now it looks amazing.
 
As if I wasn't excited enough already for this game! This is just more icing on top of the cake! TxSF soon!!!! 2016 is looking great so far!
 
Lord Akumer, huh?

I hope this is only a taste of Tekken x Street Fighter and not what Tekken x Street Fighter has become.
 
Wait a minute Tekken 7 uses Unreal Engine 4 and so does Street Fighter 5. Could they maybe ask/pay the Tekken team for the Akuma model, effects and maybe animations for Street Fighter 5.

They both have completely different gameplay systems. Besides I don't see why Capcom should. I doubt it would be too hard to include Akuma in SFV at some point.
 
Hey, can you Tekken folks please keep Akuma? Then I'd never have to deal with such a garbage character in a series I actually care about ever again!

Oh, and if Street Fighter could get Lili in the exchange, that'd be even better. Thanks!
 
I am not a big Tekken guy [I played casually 2, 3 and Tag] and I am even less fan of SF [early MK games were my jam], but this trailer was great.
