    Tekken 7 still one of the best fighting games, this version has a new story mode focused on Heihachi and Kazuya's rivalry. It Brings classic characters and some new combatants, also new maps and a new soundtrack. But, It starts adding DLC content unlike his past versions.

    Been doing this since Tekken 1. It seems as though Namco set the bar too high with Tekken Tag 2. (Don't care what you say, TTT2 was the sh*t) In regards to the roster, the new characters are promising, but I'm still experimenting with them, so I can't give a valid opinion.

    Key players are missing such as Lei Wulong and Julia Chang/Jaycee, which is something they will most likely release in the future. I'm SLIGHTLY disappointed, but either they will release them in the future or I'll just go play TTT2 or 6.

    As for the single player mode, we are missing many of the standard modes like Survival and Team Battle. But we are given Treasure Battle (also known as Ghost Battle with more loot.), which is fine, but doesn't really do that much different. Fortunately, there is a story mode, but even that is watered down with a needless narrative perspective; which only serves to make sure you take the Mishima storyline seriously.

    Taking a note from Capcom's Street Fighter V, the other characters get a chance to face off against their rivals after you finish the main story and allow to unlock their endings. Which, to be honest seems to be more of a rush job and less of a nod to fans.

    Ultimately, this and almost all fighting games now are gearing themselves towards online gameplay which is either a good thing or a bad thing. Me personally, I'm a local co-op player, so I guess I'm a dying breed. Also, as cool as the new Rage system is, it's TOO EASY to simply win a match with the press of ONE BUTTON. Matches are supposed to be tense and tight when your life is low, Rage takes away that excitement.

    Overall though, Tekken 7 is a step back from TTT2 and 6, but improves itself in ways that you will either embrace or hate.    … Expand

    The fighting mechanics are very solid, as are the graphics. However, a fairly mediocre roster and weak single-player content sadly drags the game down a few pegs. Also, while it will probably be patched eventually, it's still important to note that the online portion of the game is, at the time of writing this, suffering considerable issues.

I've enjoyed watching videos of the game so i decided to try it. The gameplay is amazing. I wanted to return the game as soon as i got it because i didn't understand anything, but the time i learned a single combo (Which is nothing in this game, NOTHING, it's the bare minimum to not be destroyed by the cpu on medium) i was hooked and became one of my favourite fighting games.
    So, core gameplay: 10. Characters... i like a lot of them, usually i get 3-4 characters i like, but here i like half the cast so it's quite a lot to enjoy
    -Story mode is... passable... to be honest 80% of it doesn't go anywhere... but there're some epic moments... to me, while those moments were great, the rest of the story was as meh as it could be.
    -Treasure battle is fun, you fight, you unlock things for customization... it's a nice way to make you play offline while you learn the game, keeps the things moving.
    -Customization is weird. You can make your own character, and tweak every color... but 80% of the costumes are shared between all the cast, and 90% of them are "weird". You may want to make a serious character but 90% of the items you can add to his back are giant pizzas, giant sushis, teddybears, etc... I've ended up customizing a little but it's not that good if you don't enjoy weird stuff
    - Online (PS4): it's bad... i'm from Argentina, south america, and more than a month since the game was released, i've not reached 30 online battles. The matchmaking takes up to an hour to find a match (while every other fighting game i play finds someone in a few minutes, so it's not a problem of my connection being bad, it's about where i am and that defines that the game is dead online.
    - tournament mode online won't work because if the creator of the tournament leaves, the tournament is closed, so basically, if he-she loses, he leaves because he doesnt want to wait and you get screwed and lose the prizes.

    So for me its one if not the more enjoyable fighting game nowadays but if you're on ps4 and south america online has been dead since arrival and even after 2 patches, things haven't changed.
    Story is good enough but offline content is lacking. treasure battle helps but to a point    … Expand

Tekken hasn't been getting any better since Tekken 6, Tekken is great, awesome, it's as good as it has always has been. Unfortunately in recent releases features have been taken away, not added. Tekken 6 was the first game on the PS3, and the best. It had a giant roster of characters but more importantly it had a story mode, based on the Tekken Force introduced in Tekken 3 and 4. Now for the most part many fans didn't like this "Streets Of Rage" style scrolling beat-em-up mode, but that's ok, if you didn't like the mode you didn't have to play it. The mode was great because it was in effect two games in mode, Tekken 1 on 1 and Tekken scrolling beat-em-up. The game even had online coop mode. A first or a tekken game. Sure the newer releases have ever so slightly better graphics and more characters, however in TTT2 the scrolling beat-em-up mode was missing, it felt like a large chunk of the game had been removed, and it had annoying gimmicky features such as wall and bounce damage, there was also no online coop (obviously) but at least it had 2 on 2 combat which wasn't in Tekken 6, something new. And now we come to Tekken 7, it has different gimmicky features to TTT2 which aren't necessary, but now we have two key features missing, no tag team mode and no scrolling beat-em-up mode, going back to a game with only 1 and 1, and with a severely reduced roster of characters. Somehow the game feels very threadbare in comparison. I'm all for making the game better but taking away features that were awesome and considered new features in previous Tekken games, it's sad indeed. Tekken 7 is a great game, but TTT2 and especially Tekken 6 are better. Tekken 7 has less content than previous Tekken games making it an inferior product. That's not just my opinion, it's an actual fact.… Expand

I've beaten all story parts and then played only online.

    First of all, let me tell you, this game is not really targeted to casual players who just want to play story mode and Arcade mode. Second of all, there is no tutorial for new players and all you get is text in the loading screen, that explains some movement/defensive options.
    The story mode is one of the better examples in the fighting game genre but it still takes only about 2-3 Hours to beat. There are also side Stories for Characters that are not involved in the main Story but those are just one fight long, which is really disappointing.
    The Arcade Mode is also not that long. 8-9 minutes for each Character and nothing really surprising. And then there is Training mode, which is a really great tool to learn characters and match-ups but then again....no tutorial on how to use it or how to use it efficiently.
    Then there is Treasure-Battle, a mode where you can fight the CPU for customisation Items for all the Characters on the roster and increasing your Offline rank. And yes, there is an Offline rank for Arcade-Mode (limited) and Treasure-Mode (unlimited).

    Online is where I think Tekken 7s strong site is. Online you can choose between Tournament Mode, Ranked Match and Casual Matches. You will always find matches equaling your Skill and it can get you hooked for hours. I had great fun playing online and also met some people.

    Visually Tekken 7 looks really awesome! The Fights feel so good and these slow-motion moments creating such a hype online and offline. Each hit gives you a setisfiing feeling that you want to achieve a hit again.

    Overall I like Tekken 7 but I don´t think it´s for beginners. Bandai said its accessible more then ever but I don´t see accessibility when there is no tutorial. If you want to have fun with Tekken you need to learn a lot of things and playing against the CPU is not going to justify a full price buy.
    My Advise: If you are a person that is confident about your fighting game skill and look for a challenge, buy it! But if you are new and want just to beat the story or mash some buttons against the CPU wait for at least half the price or even less.
    One more, if you are new and want to get good at Tekken give it time and hit up forums or youtube. Tekken has a very welcoming community and a lot of veteran players target their stream or video content towards new players!    … Expand

    On the other hand it does indulge in the Season Pass, a scam started by Rockstar Games to sell missing content back to the end user. It's an insulting thing that Tecmo Koei has implemented into DOA5 Last Round each costing up to $99 and it's only for character costumes. With Tekken 7 having only 3, it's probably safe to say the game's done with characters by now.    … Expand

    Si te gusta Tekken te va a gustar Tekken 7, y si no te gusta, los cambios que se han hecho a la jugabilidad valen la pena para darle una nueva oportunidad a la serie. Tekken 7 es una obra que, aunque tiene sus puntos flacos, se mantiene como una opción única e imprescindible dentro de la oferta del género.

    Tekken 5 was a small part of my childhood.
    It's been quite long since I played a Tekken game for the last time... till recently.
    Tekken's strongest aspect was always the gameplay, and Tekken 7's core gameplay is awesome! It's very complex, it looks clean and it feels smooth... it's Tekken gameplay at it's finest. The roster is great, even though there are some questionable additions in.    Tekken 5 was a small part of my childhood.

    The visuals and the audio design are very dynamic and cool!
    The customization is fine and the music is... well, Tekken 7's soundtrack is mediocre at best but I like how there's an option to use tracks from the previous games in the series.
    The game is not flawless though, far from it.
    Some animations and character elements feel outdated or unpolished.
    The DLC characters are way too many in my opinion and half of them should've been included in the base game; locking classic Tekken characters behind a pay-wall is unacceptable.
    The Arcade Mode is a joke; it's very short and irrelevant.
    Also, the singleplayer content is just underwhelming.

    Pros:
    + Amazing gameplay
    + Very good roster

    Pros

    New mechanics: Rage Arts (Doing a super when you're in low health by doing a command or by one button), Rage Drive (Modified move from the original), Screw (A new way of doing combos, much better than Tekken 6/Tekken Tag Tournament 2) Season Passes: The first Tekken to have season passes. This builds up hype and introduces new characters and stages. Music: The music in this    Pros

    Season Passes: The first Tekken to have season passes. This builds up hype and introduces new characters and stages.

    Music: The music in this game is great! You can also change music from the Jukebox (You can only do this on PS4 because most of the Tekken games have been on PlayStation consoles)

    Gallery: The gallery is quite a surprise. Not only does it have character endings from past Tekken games, but it also has artwork which I've never seen before.

    ULTIMATE TEKKEN BOWL: Relive memories of playing Tekken Bowl from Tekken Tag Tournament. Play bowling in Tekken style!

    Rank Points: Ever since Tekken 5 DR, there was no rank points. You had no idea how close you were to a promotion/demotion. This was the first Tekken to introduce rank points, you can finally tell if you're close to a promotion/demotion.

    Easy throw-breaking: Throw-breaking has gotten a little easy, it is not unnecessarily difficult anymore.

    Easy controller-setup: Controller setup is much better and easy than previous Tekken games.

    Stage/Music Transition: I like how the stage changes atmosphere on the last round, as well as the music. This build up hype.

    Cons

    Online: Sometimes, the netcode is good, sometimes, it isn't. In season 1, there was no rank points, which was a problem since Tekken 5 DR because you would have no idea if you are close to a promotion/demotion. Rank points were then introduced in season 2. When someone disconnects during a match, you get nothing, unless the opponent goes AFK and you quickly beat him before the match gets cancelled to get points. In an online tournament, when a match gets disconnected, you either win by default, or the whole tournament gets canceled.

    Broken Characters: 2D characters like Akuma (Street Fighter), Geese Howard (King of Fighters/Fatal Fury), and Noctis Lucis Caelum are non-Tekken characters who are broken. DLC characters like Negan, Leroy Smith, Fakhumram, Kunimitsu and Lidia Sobieska are broken. Every part about them is annoying. This is just my opinion, you may disagree to this.

    Terrible/Short Story: The main story was alright, I just wish there was more. The narrator made the main story boring. I can't say the same for the character episodes, they were absolutely terrible.

    Lack of Content: This game does not have many offline content and is missing some like team battle and survival. ULTIMATE TEKKEN BOWL is good, but it's not enough. Also, the AI in this game is trash, which makes Treasure Battle boring.

    No tutorial mode: You have to learn this game on your own or by searching YouTube videos.

    Frame Data: Frame Data was finally added in the game, back in season 3, but now you have to pay for it.

    Stages: Two dojo stages, two volcano stages, two helipad stages and two floor-break stages. Some of the filters on the stages looked terrible than compared to the beautiful Vanilla filters. The main ones to me were Twilight Conflict with the beautiful sunset, Mishima Dojo with the warm contrast and Devil's pit with the dark atmosphere. They completely ruin those stages by changing the filters. In season 2, they brought the filters back, but they're separate stages now. They should've been a stage transition.    … Expand

    Tekken 7 is a fighting game with seemingly a bunch to do, but just can’t stand up to today’s competition...
    There is a story mode here complete with cut scenes which is probably the best part of the game...
    Its tells the father son struggle of Heihachi and kazuya... as Kazuya sets out to kill his father for killing his mother…
    The story mode goes a bit all over the place, so it’s hard to follow at times, but there’s definitely some emotion here, and I did find the story mode to be intriguing..
    However this story mode is only 2 hours long…
    There are character specific chapters to do after you complete the story mode that all tell a silly conflict between 2 fighters and end in a nice short cut scene at the end of the battle, and gives every character in the roster some personality...
    To add even more personality to your characters... there’s a treasure battle mode here where you can earn fight money and clothing items to customize your entire roster…
    However there are few unique outfits for each character
    A lot of customizable options are shared... and even worse… you have to rebuy the exact same article of clothing even if you already own it for another character…
    This is a decent feature though and you can even change the color of most items here…
    The actual gameplay though…
    Its stiff..
    Tekken 7 feels extremely slow stiff and annoying compared to the competition like injustice 2…
    Enemies feel spammy at times with their constant spam blocking and spam dodge attack from behind combos...
    This can to lead to many frustrating feeling moments.. Where you’ll feel you need to get lucky to progress rather than breathe and go back in with a new approach…
    This game is not newcomer friendly at all, as all of the cool moves are hidden behind ridiculous combinations of buttons…
    Feeling like a pro will take a lot of time and dedication to this game…
    Not recommend for the casual fighting game fan at all…
    Though there is a more casual addition to tekken 7 called a rage art…
    When you’re down on health and your back is against the wall, you can release a powerful attack like a super move from the injustice games, just with the touch of a button if you’d like as this move along with other button combinations are mappable on your controller…
    And onto the online mode..
    It’s completely broken for me on the PlayStation 4…
    I couldn’t connect to any matches... so my fun with this game ended when the 2 hour campaign ended…
    Tekken fans I’m sure will love Tekken 7
    But fighting fans in general…
    Tekken 7 is miles behind the competition and needs to catch up…
    Content feels lacking with the likes of Injustice 2 out there now
    And the button mashy memorize a million button sequences get lucky combat is just not enjoyable to me anymore…

    I've never played any of the previous games, so I was lost. I did find the story very cheesy and just not for me. The game-play however was awesome. Plenty of awesome matches and moments were present. I wished that the game had more content though.

    It's a good fighting game, but the graphics are just awful. It looks nearly the same as Tekken Tag Tournament 2 on PS3. Rage Arts are too casual for me. Lack of fighters is also a bad thing (where's Lei?!). Overall it is still lot of fun, but not good game as should be.

    The game looks fantastic and the story albeit short and confusing is interesting, but overall Tekken 7 doesn't do anything to stand out and is a bit bland overall. 63/100

    The gameplay is always enjoyable and it keeps getting better. Rage arts will take getting used to as they can be rather annoying in the beginning. New characters are as blank as a white paper. Story is absolute rubbish.

    Tekken 7 is very much Tekken, exactly like you've always known it. Luckily the game knows how to get maximum gain out of seemingly minimal additions, like the flashy Rage Arts, tactical Power Crushes and surprisingly spectacular presence of Street Fighter icon Akuma. But due to the pretentious and disappointing single-player content it will never be a classic.

    This is the pinnacle of the Tekken series – a joy to play, with a wealth of content, that's as challenging and precise for aficionados as it is inviting and engaging for neophytes. A masterpiece of the fighting genre.

    Welcoming back old hands and encouraging newcomers, Tekken 7 beats its own path and ensures that you want to walk it, kicking various backsides along the way. [Aug 2017, p.83]
