Tekken 7

9/10

Tekken was already a big deal before Tekken 3 came along, but the third instalment rocketed Bandai Namco's series to truly awesome heights. It was both a revolutionary 3D fighting game and a commercial juggernaut, helping define an entire console generation.

Tekken 7 delivers everything that the fans would expect from the series with just enough modifications to the fighting mechanics and a nice array of new and returning fighters to test their mettle against in both single player and multiplayer match-ups.

Bandai Namco isn't reinventing the wheel with Tekken 7, but it's been long enough that a solid entry in the franchise feels fresh. The new additions are small in scope but deliver in a big way, making this easily one of the best entries in the series.

The Tekken series and I have had a long history together. Although reared on Street Fighter II and Mortal Kombat, it wasn’t until I played Tekken 2 on the PSX

Tekken 7 returns to its gameplay roots with classic 1 vs 1 bouts and its canon storyline centered on the eternal struggle for power amongst the members of the Mishima clan.

Objectively, Tekken 7 is most likely not the best fighting game out there currently. Netherrealm Studios are doing a too good job for that with Mortal Kombat X and Injustice 2. However, given that in my childhood the Tekken series was omnipresent, it is my personal King of the Iron Fist. It is not completely understandable for me, why there was so little effort put into more varying game modes. I hope the explanation is not mainly to sell them via the upcoming DLCs. I don’t mind too much ab...

Tekken 7 is more of a sidestep than a total knockout for the series. Its broken online modes and sparse single player content leaves something to be desired, but those looking to throw down will appreciate its depth and complexity.

At its core, Tekken 7 manages to prove that the series still has a place after 20 years, showing no signs of slowing down. Newcomers will find their way into the game quite easily, and experienced players will be able to jump back into it and find most of their favourite characters ready to go and familiar to play with. But while the game does a lot of things right, some long-time players will find the omission of modes or characters a little jarring. The PS4 version of this game was played for the purpose of this review.

When you hop online you’ll find your typical Ranked, Unranked, and Tournament modes typical of any fighting game. You can also set up lobbies to host multiple players or spectators and also search for those lobbies. I will say that joining one of these lobbies can be a bit of a pain if you suddenly want to leave because you won’t be given any option of exiting the lobby until after a game starts; this leads to you having to completely shut down the game and restarting it. Something I do wish they’d change is that when you’re waiting to match up with a player you’ll be tossed into a room with a...

Tekken has finally returned, but as a good number of its rivals have grown and improved, can it still be a serious player in the fighting game genre? Watch or read our review to see what we had to say.
