The officialTekkenTwitter handle posted its accomplishment of selling over 7 million copies of the game. In addition to thanking its fans for their continued support, the account posted a commemorative illustration. The artwork includes the entire baseTekken 7roster as well as characters from Season 4, like Lidia and Kunimitsu. The same tweet also says, “Now get ready for the next battle!” While this is the franchise’s signature pre-fight slogan, some players are theorizing Bandai Namco could be hinting at a new game. As mentioned previously,Tekken 7is roughly a six-year-old game, and with an expansive roster now boasting 53 playable characters, rumors of Season 4 being the final batch of post-launch content have begun to arise.
Several fans on Twitter are hoping for an announcement in the near future for either a “complete” next-gen port ofTekken 7for PS5 and Xbox Series X, or perhaps even aTekken 8. Series developer Bandai Namco did recentlyregister a trademark for Bandai Namco Next, which many believe to be the company’s own version of a digital game showcase. The publisher has remained radio silent regarding the trademark, and without a confirmation of showing up at E3, players will have to stay tuned to its social media accounts to figure out what’s in store for the storied franchise.
Tekken 7is available now on PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
