Tekken 7 May Have Been Confirmed For PlayStation 4/Xbox One

Update: Epic Games has reached out to us to inform us that the listing for the Xbox One and PS4 was a mistake and that the game has only been confirmed for arcades.  Epic Games regrets any confusion this may have caused and would like to apologize to all fans of the game.

Epic Games seems to have inadvertently confirmed that Tekken 7 is slated for release on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

To be specific, the news came up in a promotional video for Unreal Engine 4, which is what Team 765 is using to make the game. Epic’s sizzle reel for the engine shared some Tekken 7 footage, and on the side, showed that the game was meant to come to arcades and these two consoles.

Tekken head honcho Katsuhiro Harada had already stated for the record that the team chose the engine to make porting the game easier to the platforms they want it to go to. We already knew this was a hint that the game wasn’t coming to PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and Wii U, none of which have Unreal Engine 4 support, but it wasn’t clear if he was also willing to accommodate PC fans.

When asked about a PC port Harada has only said that he is considering it, but also stated that he is a huge PC gamer himself, and particularly loves to play Payday on Steam.

If Harada is worried about fighting games on PC, there should be reason to believe he will do well, based on the popularity of Street Fighter, Dead or Alive, King of Fighters, Skullgirls, and many others on Steam.

Bandai Namco has yet to make an official statement, but truth be told, the platforms mentioned here are no surprise. Fans are just wondering if there is one more.
