Tekken 7 Out Today, Harada Talks History, Future of Fighting Games
Posted by Sid Shuman on Jun 02, 2017
I’ve played every single Tekken game — all of them, even Death By Degrees — going all the way back to the original PlayStation game. So with Tekken 7 launching today on PS4, it only seemed appropriate to reach out to Katsuhiro Harada, Tekken’s longstanding game director, to reflect on where the series has been — and where the larger fighting-game genre is headed.
It’s all come to this. The warring members of the Mishima Clan come to blows one last time as their 20-year blood feud ends. Welcome to Tekken 7, which launches June 2 on PS4.
Sid and Ryan test their improvisation skills on this week’s episode as they slam that record button with very little preparation! Ryan puts on his formal attire and interviews Sid (someone with no direct connection to the Tekken 7 development team) about Tekken 7.
Tekken has been my fighting series of choice for almost 20 years, so you know I wasn’t gonna miss an opportunity to finally get some quality time with Tekken 7 just weeks before its June 2 PS4 launch date. Watch the new episode of PlayStation Underground to see me and legendary Tekken community advisor MarkMan23 trade blows.
This is Dalton from Bandai Namco and I’m excited to announce that the next chapter in the legendary Tekken series will finally land in the hands of fighting game fans on June 2, 2017 when Tekken 7 hits PS4!
With the faithful 3D battle system intact, Tekken 7 takes the franchise to the next level with photorealistic graphics and innovative features and fighting mechanics. Select characters from an expansive roster of your favorites and new challengers, each with a distinct set of deadly techniques, martial arts moves, and combos.
One of the world’s most popular fighting games is punching its way back onto PlayStation — Bandai Namco’s Tekken 7 entered the E3 2016 ring to prove its worth. We had a chat with Game Director and Chief Producer Katsuhiro Harada who offered some hard-hitting reasons why it’s a game you should be keeping an eye on.
Get ready to get back in the ring for Tekken 7
