Tekken 7 is a massive milestone for the series in terms of gameplay, but a poor story and lack of offline modes might work against it.

Tekken series has been with us for 23 long years. During that time, Namco has made some of the best games of the fighting genre, but for some time this series couldn't find the right way. However, now with Tekken 7, this well-known brand is back in the saddle. The game has problems with uninteresting story mode and older looking visuals, but it's still the king of fighters, deserving of your attention.

Overall I think Tekken succeeds in living up to the legacy its established and for me personally I think this is the best Tekken game since 5. The weird way character endings are presented was really off putting, and the main story was short and not all that great. A larger main story as well as challenging the player to actually earn the character endings would’ve made it a whole lot better. But at its core it’s a damn fine fighting game and it’ll be keeping me invested for a long, long time.

Hands down Tekken 7 is one of the finest and most balanced fighting games in recent times, that not only takes everything good about the old games, but has balanced certain mechanics and their imparting damages so that it doesn’t intimidate new players.

The children begin loving their parents, then they judge them. Rarely, if never, forgive them. So this chapter of Tekken also closes, although it contains some small ripples at the narration level, certainly succeeds in involving itself as only that beaten Bandai knows how to do it.

Tekken 7 is a well-balanced fighting game with a fantastic starting roster and crazy amount of combos. The customization is fun and there’s more than enough content to justify a purchase if you’re a fan of the genre. The only things holding the game back are the long loading times and connection problems in multiplayer. Trophy hunters will be pleased with a quick and enjoyable platinum trophy.

Tekken 7 is a complete package, brilliant graphics, superb sound and top notch gameplay. It does leave a little to be desired in teaching its tight mechanics to newcomers and the story mode can drag on however, at the end of it all, you would be hard pressed to find a fighter this entertaining.

Tekken 7 doesn’t reinvent itself, but it doesn’t need to because it always has been, and still is, one of the best fighting games around.

Tekken 7 ist ein würdiger Nachfolger der Reihe, der alte Standards beibehält und gleichzeitig gekonnt mit neuen Features überrascht – und das erstmals auch auf dem PC. Ganze 10 neue Kämpfer sorgen für frischen Wind und laden Anfänger, aber auch alteingesessene Profis, dazu ein, neue Kampfstile auszuprobieren.

While rocking the Unreal Engine 4, and backed with the kind of quality netcode that has yet to be seen in any other fighting game on PC, Tekken 7 is the premiere fighting game experience for those seeking an endless stream of competition.

When it comes to gameplay Tekken 7 is unrivaled. But as a package, it could have been a lot better.

Offline, everything in Tekken’s garden is rosy, but online it looks like someone has been at it with the weedkiller.

The meagre selection of modes and underwhelming story in Tekken 7 might put off the lonesome player, but if you've got two controllers and a friend/sibling/partner to play with, Tekken 7 will keep you occupied forever. Besides, where else are you going to see a bear smack seven shades out of a vampire wearing a Bullet Club t-shirt?

Tekken 7 is definitely in the running for being one of the best Tekken games of all time. Many would say it goes well beyond this and marks itself as a ‘must buy’ fighter for a wide range of gamers out there.

If you’re a die-hard fan of the series, adding this gem to your collection is a no-brainer. If you’re a newcomer in search of some hot and heavy bare-knuckle action, there’s no better time to join the fight.

Tekken 7 doesn't really do that much new and the Story-Mode this time comes too short but besides that Tekken Fans will get everything what Fans would expect a good 3D fighting game and especially a Tekken Game. The amount of Fanservice is great and if they manage to fix the online connectivity issues we'll have the best Tekken game in years.

Overall, Tekken 7 is a great addition to the franchise. It mixes things up enough to keep the gameplay fresh but at the same time, keeps things familiar for older fans.

After waiting for more than 6 years for a sequel, you'd expect Tekken 7 to come back with the might of an iron fist, and Bandai Namco absolutely nailed that. A bit more serious than its predecessor, Tekken 7 is also more technical, precise and demanding without being less entertaining, thanks to its varied roster of characters. While it might not be the prettiest fighting game around in comparison to the current competitions, the rest works perfectly, especially the online modes which are for me the best in the genre so far. In short, Tekken 7 is a great competitive game for friends and rivals!
