In line with this upcoming development is the said online version, which will most likely happen depending on fans' demand.
"Harada noted that 'Tekken 7' arcade machine availability on other arcades would depend on the arcade operators as to whether they want to invest in the machines and join the local tests for 'Tekken 7,'" the article said. "Harada also confirmed that the addition of online play for the arcade versions of 'Tekken 7' in America could be added if enough people demanded for it."

"By the way, currently, we have four new characters, but later on we'll continue to add them through updates, so look forward to it," Harada said. "We don't plan on reducing the number of characters, so yes, we're thinking of adding more."
In line with the release date news, "Tekken 7" is reportedly going to run on Unreal Engine 4 when it's reaches PS4 and Xbox One consoles.
"With Unreal Engine 4, we can rapidly achieve visual quality expected on next-gen platforms and go beyond it," Harada told Unreal Engine. "Not only is Unreal Engine 4 powerful and easy to use, but it also allows us to bring 'Tekken 7' to any platform we desire."
