    The best fighting game in years! The gameplay is so addicting and every character feels complete, even the new character have a very satisfying movelist. Netcode is also very smooth for me, didn't have any problems so far.

    Tekken 7 é o melhor jogo de luta de 2017, jogo que levou um tempo pra vir pro console mas valeu a pena a espera. O que temos aqui é um jogo completo com a devida competência, claro que vem mais conteúdo por dlc mas isso não tira o mérito do jogo por sí só já vir com bastante conteúdo de qualidade, desde o modo história (com a aparição do AKUMA) até o modo online rankeado.

    Some might say that content is missing, and I do understand where that is coming from, but I still think that they focused on getting the core things right, and I appreciate that. Plus I really found the Guest characters interesting.

    Just like the previous games learn to play could be a though and overwhelming task, de pp and polished mechanics make it worth the try, don't let the negative commentaries about the quality of his graphics distract you from enjoy one the best fighting games ever made

    Really great game. Lots of nonsense criticism in comments like cast of characters mentioned by user Toxicology - ill get to that later, according to ablan Injustice is better because tekken is more button mashing friendly - seriously? You can win by button mashing in injustice/mk but good luck trying that in tekken against anybody who knows how to play. Rage art also criticised by ablan -Really great game.

You can win by button mashing in injustice/mk but good luck trying that in tekken against anybody who knows how to play. Rage art also criticised by ablan - dude You know that this is mechanic straight from street fighter/mkx (super combo/x-ray)? Go flame somewhere else because Youre doing it wrong.
    On to the lack in cast - those listed by user Toxicology:
    First of all Alex, Ancient Ogre, Angel, Armor King ½, Azazel, Christie Monterio, Combot, Devil Kazumi, Dr. Bosconovitch, Forest Law, Gun Jack, Jinpachi Mishima, Julia Chang, Jun Kazama, Michelle Chang, Miharu Hirano, Mokujin, Prototype Jack, Raven, Roger, Roger Jr, Tiger Jackson - those were all reskins from cast who is actually on the rooster, dumb kangooro or raptor like roger/alex or **** end bosses like azazel - who really misses those? Good riddance. Well Christie was nice reskin from Eddy gordo.
    We actually can miss Anna Williams, Baek Doo San, Bruce Irvin, Craig Marduk, Ganryu, Julia Chang, Kunmitsu, Lei Wulong, Wang Jinrei, Zafina, but only 2 -3 of those were really popular (Marduk, Lei and maybe Bruce). I dont mention raven because there is a girl in T7 just like him. Besides I bet well see them in dlc later. New cast is also quite nice, and akuma is really fun addition because that is really one of the best character in all fighting games.

    True flaws of the game is net code at start (hope they fix it) and I miss the ability to choose one of the 3 opponents from tekken 5 when I play treasure hunt - also the same scenery for 5 or more matches is just not fun, it should shuffle it more.

    Other than that the game is just simple fun like always. Great graphics and perfect soundtrack. I just love to feel the power in punches/kicks from tekken which really is the best 3D fighting game on the market. And for that it deserves nothing less than 10 out of 10.

Still, Tekken 7 is one of the best fighting game experiences of this era. Practice up and learn a few characters, because you will be rewarded with fun mind games and epic moments. Rage Arts and Power Crush techniques are designed to help new players, but these new mechanics are heavily punishable by 3D fighting game fundamentals and skill. Tekken 7 is a no BS fighting game. Learn the ropes, or get owned with style. Expand

    It's Tekken. We all know what it is. We all know what it means. We know what to expect. So don't go ahead and complain. Same dev team, same ambience, same story, characters, gameplay, just better graphics and new characters. As it should be. Thank you Namco.

The complexity and depth of the Tekken series is on full display here, and at 60fps with beautiful visuals it is the best Tekken game, and indeed the best fighting game to date. I would not take stock in the negative professional reviews, which seems to present 3 common critiques, each of which is not persuasive. They are; 1) The game hasn't changed enough in over 20 years and is "outdated." When a perfect formula is arrived at, it doesn't need to be "updated" for the sake of presenting something new. We have seen dozens of fighting games come along since the first Tekken games, all of which brought something "new" to the table. But introducing new elements to games for the sake of bringing consumers something else to buy is a pathway to gimmicks, and that's exactly what tekken's competitors have offered. If you want something new, buy a different fighting game, if you want something good, buy Tekken 7. 2) The game is too hard. This argument can also be read, "the game is too good." Yes Tekken is difficult to learn. That's what makes it great. There is a reason Tekken tournaments are well populated years after the release of a game. Tekken is as close to a quintessential esport as it gets, a game where button mashing will not prevail past the very introductory stages. What Tekken lacks in gimmicky features it makes up for in it's incredible complex movesets. Most of the negative reviewers gave higher scores to much easier games, though I would advise those reviewers not to give Tekken 7 a negative review merely because they did not put in the time it takes to learn its systems. 3) Tekken 7 lacks a good plot. This doesn't even merit response. The plots of fighting games are background filler, nothing more. Saying that you didn't like Tekken 7 because of lack of plot is like saying you didn't enjoy the super bowl because it lacked plot. It's a sport. There isn't supposed to be a plot.

    Tekken 7 is the best fighting game there is, no contest. Buy it, take time to practice, and you'll be glad you did.

    Increíble juego, actualmente veo que están mas al pendiente de lo bonito que se vea, en vez de la experiencia de su jugabilidad, cosa en la que Tekken brilla. Sin problemas en partidas online, The Mishima Saga es muy bueno, pero muy corto, aun asi es muy buiena experiencia y en definitiva el mejor juego de peleas en la actual generación.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. E' il miglior picchiaduro in circolazione ed uno dei migliori mai realizzati . Ci sono non moltissime modalità, ma abbastanza e tutte fatte molto bene. A differenza di molti, la story mode non l'ho trovata cosi male , in fin dei conti parliamo di un picchiaduro ...e anzi, con qualche spunto in più, poteva essere una storia molto ben messa....tra l'altro le diverse iterazioni casual come quando Lars impugna l'arma ..non sono niente male. L'unica "pecca" se cosi la si può chiamare, è che forse il platino lo si ottiene in un tempo non molto ampio ...ma del resto , faccio parlare il voto . Expand

    I am a massive Tekken fan so I wanted to wait a while before writing my review so any bias I had would have plenty of time to vanish. Several months later and I still feel the same about it as I did on release. It is a fantastic fighting game that I can't put down.

    I know many were disappointed with the slight lack in content compared to previous games, but honestly the only thinks
    I am a massive Tekken fan so I wanted to wait a while before writing my review so any bias I had would have plenty of time to vanish. Several months later and I still feel the same about it as I did on release. It is a fantastic fighting game that I can't put down.

    I know many were disappointed with the slight lack in content compared to previous games, but honestly the only thinks missing were modes that nobody used anyways. I can't remember a single time I or anyone else played Survival more than once, or Tekken Force again after beating it 2 or 3 times. I'm mainly into fighting games for the gameplay anyways and how competitive they can get. This is by far one of the smoothest and most balanced entries in the franchise yet. I can see attacks when they come and counter precisely. Taking hits never felt like anyone's fault but my own.

    The lack of content I mentioned beforehand didn't personally reduce my enjoyment of the game, but even if it did, the problem is fixed now. The Tekken Bowl update added a new mode, but was a tad bit pricey. Though there have also been tons of updates with free content including customizations pieces so it balances out nicely. With DLC planned all the way through Spring of next year, I'm excited to see what they've got planned. We already have 2 guest characters with their own stages confirmed. One of them has already been revealed to be Geese Howard with his tower stage. With how Namco treated Akuma better than his own game did, I'm certain Geese will make for a fantastic guest character.

    The story mode did leave a bit to be desired though. The gameplay was fantastic, and I enjoyed the story-exclusive gimmicks, don't get me wrong. But the plot itself wasn't all that great. They only half-way concluded the Mishima Saga and left several questions lazily answered or not answered at all. Don't even get me started on the character episodes. It definitely has its downsides, but if they aren't enough to lower the high I have on this game, then it's still a 10 in my eyes.

BIG FAT YES! Can I say the same about the offline content? Sort of. At the age where fighters bring no content at all, Tekken brought a great Story Mode, Arcade, Treasure Battle (a new version of Ghost Battle but even more addictive), a solid Practice Mode that gives you a bunch of possibilities for trainning, a Customization Mode that lacks some things compared to the previous games but is still decent and 37 characters to choose from (with more to come, and for the joy of veterans it was stated that missing Legacy Characters will come for free). The online gameplay gives you Ranked, Player Match (where you can play just for fun without affecting your rank position), Tournnament Mode (this is new) and you can create Online Sessions as always. Judging the whole package I would give a 8,5 out of 10 having Tekken 3 and Tekken 5 in comparison, but it's impossible to not give 10 because this is the fighter that I can see a better future. Bandai Namco and Harada (the director of the franchise) confirmed they are gonna give support to increase the game's lifetime with more content and whatever fixes it needs. So even if you are a long time Tekken player like me and get a little bit disappointed with offline content, you must have in mind that this game was made to keep going for at least 6 years and to keep it fresh, things will come slowly but surely. This is new to franchise and was exactly what Tekken 6 needed but didn't have (hence the game died within it's third year), so be cool and patient cause things will get better and better in the right time. Beautiful graphics, cool stages, new default costumes for everybody, new moves, and the inclusion of new mechanics like Rage Drives, Rage Arts, PowerCrushes and real time Slow Motion are the cherry on top. A must buy if you're a casual or pro-player because both can have a good time with it (something not every AAA fighter can provide). Expand

    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.
