Just had a 50 something Japanese salaryman put all his weight into shoulder checking me at the station. Wasn’t looking at my cellphone or anything so I asked “why would you do that?” And he just started yelling.
Only gonna say this once. We wanted to make a new character. We wanted to use a real martial art. I know quite a lot about Muay Thai and we wanted to create something special for the Thai Finals. If you say petty shit because he’s not Bruce, get blocked
TEKKEN 7 update Version 3.21 will include battle adjustments to Leroy Smith and is planned for release in mid-February. Battle balancing adjustments for other characters will also be done before the start of the TEKKEN WORLD TOUR 2020. Stay tuned for more details.
Like some ppl have guessed, these patch notes were planned way before EVO Japan and are just the first round of changes. More on the way. Honestly a more thorough patch was planned with Fahkumram but
@Harada_TEKKEN
and I are trying to speed it up.
I apologize to the fans who saw that particular thing in not the way
@Harada_TEKKEN
and I had wanted it to happen. I feel bad for all you guys and also the dev team who gave up weekends to work on it :(
Some people have expressed concern over people who intentionally disconnect because of a third consecutive loss. We will be more actively banning people who do this from Season 4.
About Season 4, I will have more info for you guys at a later date. We also are working on a small patch before then to fix some collision issues among other things
Unfortunately our global teams need more time to get everything ready. Info drop coming tomorrow. Here’s a sneak peak though: no more combo on counter hit from d2 for mr Howard anymore.
Yesterday was my dad’s funeral and the hardest speech I ever had to make. Gonna miss him a lot. Family is so important. Be sure to tell your parents how much you appreciate them while you still can!
I know we used to start our new seasons roughly around this time, and this year has been challenging for everyone. I’m sure you all are eagerly awaiting more news on S4, and we hope to tell you more later this month.
I’ve been a bit quiet because of COVID19, and working diligently to try to get things back on track. I just got the worst call of my life yesterday so it’s going to take some time before things get back to normal for me. Sorry for the lack of communication.
Whenever I have a difficult life decision to make, or incredible news to share, for some reason my fingers automatically dial my dad’s number before any other. After today, I will have to lean on the lessons he taught me over the last 42 years instead. RIP dad. 💔
Some of ya’ll need to calm down. You haven’t even played the game yet. This is one of the reasons we didn’t use to release patch notes early. My own character got several nerfs so don’t @ me
i like how fans of other games are spreading misinformation because they didn't watch the presentation. Again Replay with all those new features, practice punish, adtl sample combos, beardman costume are all FREE. they'rejust jealous I suppose lol
Happy to finally be able to show this. The dev team has added some pretty cool features to him this time around. Some of the tools he has access to in the Heat stat are extremely fun to use! Can't wait to see
@Lil_Majin
play him ;)
Woke up this morning and reached 10,000 followers! Also, officially from April I am the main producer on the Tekken franchise (including Japan, merchandising, everything related to the IP) so I look forward to further interactions with you all :)
Thanks to everyone for your support! Lots of exciting things coming this year. Can’t wait to see the start of TWT and see what people can do with the new game :)
2 MILLION FIGHTERS 🤜🤛
Thank you to all the players who have been duking it out in

The King of Iron Fist tournament will keep on growing with new exciting updates, the start of

and so much more 🥊
I just got plugged live on stream against a beautiful individual who's using Jin as a main character.

Ggs shake my hand!🫱🏼🫲🏻
Jun plays quite different from her Tag 2 iteration. Her new mechanics are unique, although it’s hard to tell in the trailer since there is no life gauge ;)
It’s November already (in Japan at least)! I know you guys can’t wait for more info, but just a little bit more. Hey, isn’t there a TWT online this coming weekend?
Just want to set expectations.
@jiyunaJP
and I are in charge of the English stream, not “translating.” We will be picking up interesting comments from the Japanese devs but don’t expect a word for word translation
24 hours from now the Japan Fighting Game Publishers Round-table will begin.
There will be translation from
@jiyunaJP
&
@mykeryu
and there will be new information from Guilty Gear Strive, Tekken 7 and Soul Calibur 6.
The stream will be on all participants respective channels.
Thank you guys for tuning in. I had a really good time and I hope you did too! Maybe the publishers coming together will elevate the genre as a whole, so I hope you guys will support future streams as well!
Happy New Year! I can’t believe TEKKEN 8 is a little over two weeks away. I’ve devoted several years of my life to this project and am just as excited as y’all to play the retail version :)
Patch 3.31 is being prepared to address certain unintended issues in the game, and is coming soon.
Saved replays from version 3.30 and earlier will no longer be available once the patch is released.
#Tekken7
Good morning everyone! I know we have been pretty quiet recently, and you guys are waiting anxiously for info. Should have something for you all later this month :)
If you followed me just to make some smartass comment, don’t bother. Save yourself the trouble and mine of blocking you. To the real fans, sorry it’s more difficult to have a dialogue because of this. Currently thinking of the best way and will let you know.
Just a reminder that CBT was a beta conducted to test certain things. I’m truly grateful to see all the feedback, and it is helpful. But ‘I don’t see why XYZ isn’t there’ , misses the point. Of course there are many things in the final product not in the beta.
Saw some dude tweet there’s no racism in Japan lol. Maybe too young to remember sitting in a real estate office calling landlord after landlord, asking if gaijin are OK to rent, and blatantly denied 80% of the time.
Continuing the rush of character trailers, we have Xiaoyu :)
With Kazuya, Jin, and Jun already announced, I'm sure everyone can't wait to see what happens with the main story arc this time!
People that think me or
@Harada_TEKKEN
do character balancing lol. If something unintended happens, we ask the balancing team to fix it. We also look at tournament footage to objectively gauge the situation, not rants on social media.
The Season 4 patch should be live now! I hope you guys enjoy all the new gampeplay and balance adjustments, and more so the online experience! Pls use
#tk7s4report
if you encounter bugs or things that need to be fixed!
PSA I posted patch notes and that’s it. Not gonna get dragged into balancing discussion minefield on twitter lol
For all our sakes I will be sticking with this mode of communication on this platform ty
I also have to say most of you guys are awesome and I love interacting with you. I actually learn a lot from you guys, and I don’t plan on changing that!
I didn’t believe some people would be stupid enough to think the only BAN system is an excel sheet. Then I remembered twitter, and followed up with another post. Alas, again someone on Reddit preaching to everyone that it is done on a single excel file 😂
Don’t wanna be a buzz kill, but last time
@Harada_TEKKEN
and I announced a new game, it was on the MS stage at E3. I don’t think a tweet is how we would do it lol.
Would you rather us just not update the game anymore? And relax, I realize that the majority of the fan base doesn't feel this way and I wouldn't do this to you guys
Trailer for my main character dropped. He’s looking the most badass I’ve ever seen him, and some of his new gameplay mechanics are pretty fun so check him out tomorrow when the game launches!
I’ve been having a lot of fun playing Lars this time. His lightning effect is so cool in T8, and his new moves are pretty flashy and satisfying. Overall, he has some really interesting transitions that are new for T8.
I really wouldn’t put much stock in something unless it comes directly from Harada or me. There is a reason for the marketing schedule, as we show stuff when it is ready, and we explain in detail about it.
I deleted the post because, although true, I didn’t express it very professionally. I’m sorry, I was upset about people intentionally spreading information that falsely gets people’s hopes up about something
Wow, 3 years, huh? I can still remember showing off that first trailer with Heihachi and Akuma where the cinematics shift to gameplay in real time. I’ve noticed huge growth in the community these past 3 years and we are extremely grateful for the support!
You people. After all this time, you’ve made this fight REALLY personal.
#TEKKEN
7 launched 3 years ago & this battle couldn’t continue without you— thank you!

Sorry I couldn’t answer everyone asking about another chance to play the game. Finally able to announce this! Great chance to experience some story content and get ready for the release next month 😈
Rev Major was definitely one of the best tournaments I’ve been to. I definitely want to come back next year! Thank you so much to the Filipino Tekken community. You guys really made me feel welcome!
8 weeks left until

Man, I love hearing backstories like this. So many crazy player names out there, this should be a series. I’m kinda jealous, ppl always just call me by me full name lol
Struggling to get better at Tekken? Check out my TEACH ME series. I have collaborated with some of the most experienced players in the world to help you learn the game. Every character has an episode here:
RT and share the series!

@TEKKEN
WTF?! At the station, just had an old Japanese dude with a funky mustache and glasses just yell ‘Heil Hitler’ at me. He actually kinda looked like him. Too bad we’re not in Germany, he would have been bodied by the police
Sorry I’ve been so quiet. Taking care of a lot of stuff. Should have more info next week. Also,
@Harada_TEKKEN
and I will be at Tokyo Tekken Masters later this month so I hope you all will tune in!
This is definitely my fav Jack design so far. I also like the projectile looking effect on his attacks. This time he has an interesting stance to absorb attacks and give him access to special attacks. I hope you all check him out at EVO Japan!
