Meanwhile, new gameplay footage taken during the Japan Amusement Expo 2016 for the title has emerged recently. In the 20-minute video, players Nobi and Tokido face off using Dragunov and Akuma, the crossover character from "Street Fighter," the report details.
Although Akuma is from another game, he has links to "Tekken 7" because of his ties with the Mishima family. In a previous trailer, it was revealed that he knows the Kazumi and Heihachi, the report relays.
The gameplay from the expo also showcases Akuma's strengths, weaknesses, and special moves. It also features the new Rage System, which will now allow users to regain their health once it strikes a certain level.
In addition, Bandai Namco has published the new trailer for "Tekken 7: Fated Retribution." The new clip shows that Nina Williams will also be present in the upcoming DLC. The said character was not included in the roster for "Tekken 7" and has only been added in the game expansion.
More information on "Tekken 7: Fated Retribution" — including its release date for PS4, Xbox One, and arcade versions — is expected to be announced in the next few months.
