"We were trying our best to get the game out at that time, to get it into the hands of users as early as possible," said project leader Katsuhiro Harada told GameSpot during a press event in Tokyo last week. "We saw some titles--some from our own company and some from others--which didn't have a very good launch because of a lack of content, or whatever it was, that caused players to bash the product." Harada and team wanted to avoid a similar fate, deciding to continue forward with its original content plan, "even if that meant the game would come a little later."

According to Harada, the decision wasn't an easy one. "Although this is the first time we've actually announced a date, it wasn't always June. It came through a process and we made some hard decisions and that was the result." Apologetically, he added "'early' was probably March or April from your average person's perspective, so we're not going to try and sugar-coat it. We realise it's not 'early,' I'm so sorry!"

Minimum/Recommended Specs:

 

[sixteen-bit]

"Early 2017" my foot, lol.

 

[Zukkoyaki]

That's a very good date in my opinion. Not many high profile games release in June, lots of eyes are going to be on it.

 

[BoZZ0]

Good window to release it, i have to many other games to play!

 

[kulapik]

No Switch version like many were speculating, Nintendoomed

 

[RecRoulette]

"We saw some titles--some from our own company and some from others--which didn't have a very good launch because of a lack of content, or whatever it was, that caused players to bash the product."

Street Fighter V has everyone shook.

For real though, a delay is a delay, do what you gotta do to make the game better. I just wish they mentioned it sooner.

 

[MrS]

Urgh that's ages away

Day one though, obviously

 

[SarcasticD]

.... Well at least we finally got a date after all this time

 

[Chase17]

Was hoping for earlier but this is alright.

 

[Hutchie]

Time to get that pre order in. Let see if the casuals jump on this, we need a big selling fighting this gen

 

[Tizoc]

"Early 2017" my foot, lol.

They had to add in pro and scorpio support methinks

 

[NightwingRebirth]

Not Switch, I guess I shouldn't be as surprised as I am, but I am surprised. I wonder if we'll see a late port or a Tag Tournament 3 as an exclusive.

Anyways, this is also months later than I was expecting this game to release. I definitely appreciate the apology given, though.

 

[Sevket-Erhat]

I am very curious about CE

 

[weekev]

No Switch version like many were speculating, Nintendoomed

Where does it say there is no Switch version?

 

[YuriLowell]

Is this like 2.5 years after the arcade release?

 

[Disagree Guy]

Tekken is arguably my favourite gaming series. I absolutely love it.

However...... This game will be nearly 2 years old by the time it releases on consoles....

Injustice 2 is out May 16th....

I think this is a terrible move because Injustice 2 looks really good too. I think it'll hurt them.

Not Switch, I guess I shouldn't be as surprised as I am, but I am surprised. I wonder if we'll see a late port or a Tag Tournament 3 as an exclusive.

Anyways, this is also months later than I was expecting this game to release.

Quote me here that this will never ever happen. How do people think this is even a possibility? haha

 

[MattXIII]

That's a very good date in my opinion. Not many high profile games release in June, lots of eyes are going to be on it.

Yeah, game would have been eaten if released between March and May

I doubt theyd give the switch an exclusive.

 

[jbug617]

 

[Slaythe]

That's extremely far.

 

[RecRoulette]

Time to get that pre order in. Let see if the casuals jump on this, we need a big selling fighting this gen

Mortal Kombat X doesn't count?

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Wow I actually thought it would come before Injustice 2.

 

[purseowner]

Shame, would've been the perfect Joycon game.

Might pick up on PS4 down the line.

(Also I can't stand how the faces don't line up on the boxart)

 

[Hutchie]

Mortal Kombat X doesn't count?

Sorry forgot about old mkx. Ok more than one.

 

[Ash735]

This is fucking crazy! Look at how much the game is being split up, Season Passes, Exclusive Pre-Order Character, Exclusive Content on one platform, etc. Tekken was always the one fighting game that at least was released complete and had all the content in game to either earn, unlock, etc from actually PLAYING the game.

 

[Playsage]

Wait...

Tekken 2 King costume?

The "shirt & tie" costume?

OH. MY. GOD.

Edit: now, there's some light in all this. New content sounds good.

 

[Alienous]

"We saw some titles--some from our own company and some from others--which didn't have a very good launch because of a lack of content, or whatever it was, that caused players to bash the product."

Turns out Tekken 7 was Tekken vs. Street Fighter all along.

Damn.

 

[DriftingSpirit]

Ready!

 

[Horseress]

ahm...shouldn't there be a steam logo as well there?

 

[ZeroX03]

Wait...

Tekken 2 King costume?

The "shirt & tie" costume?

OH. MY. GOD.

Edit: now, there's some light in all this. New content sounds good.

 

[Brix]

Loving the cover. Day one Tekken baby!

 

[Boke1879]

Can't wait for this and it's releasing at a good time imo. First half of the year is looking damn good for releases.

 

[Disagree Guy]

Them shoes though haha

Looks like a lego man with them feet

 

[MattXIII]

Need details on PS4 Pro enhancements

 

[PartTimeWarrior]

Give me the NJPW dlc!

 

[Neoxon]

The lack of a Switch version is a bit surprising given that the Wii U got TTT2, oh well.

As for the release date, a bit later than I expected, but I'll live. It'll at least give my wallet some breathing room after I get the Switch.

 

[Ogawa-san]

ahm...shouldn't there be a steam logo as well there?

You know what that icon means.

 

[Pachimari]

I'm gonna go for the Collector's Edition. Don't we have a picture of the figurine?

 

[Inuhanyou]

In for T7 PS4 preorder

But this story trailer kinda worries me. I saw Jin for like a second, but no Xiaoyu.

Are they holding back because of spoilers? This is as much Jin's story as it is Heihahi an Kazuya's after all.

 

[Yudoken]

Cool costumes and jukebox mode exclusive on PS4?
And pc players of course get nothing...

I will buy it on pc and hope we get those things one way or the other.

 

[zoukka]

I know it's not easy to come up with new stuff, but that Heihachi/Kazuya story angle is getting incredibly old and boring.

This series needs a reboot at some point.

 

[ZeroX03]

They've clarified the editions and the season pass, tidied up the OP so it should be clear what's what.

 

[crinale]

Obligatory

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=83GPDws30F4

 

[RecRoulette]

Wait, Jukebox mode is exclusive to PS4? I hope this means that they aren't selling music as DLC again.

 

[Skatterd]

*looks at all the games between now and June*

I'm ok with this.

 

[karma2578]

Won't be at evo then

 

[Ivan 3414]

Jesus, the console-exclusive content rivals SFxT, it's so lopsided towards Playstation.

 

[Inuhanyou]

I know it's not easy to come up with new stuff, but that Heihachi/Kazuya story angle is getting incredibly old and boring.

This series needs a reboot at some point.

This is the final conclusion between Kazuya and Heihachi. Its been advertised as such for a long while

 

[StriKeVillain]

Great for it to finally have a release date, but sheesh, leaving it a little bit late huh?
