Tekken 7 release date for XboxOne, PS4, and PC expected by the end of 2015

Even if it's the 20th anniversary of the Tekken game franchise this year, fans will have to wait for quite a while. Bandai Namco Games has announced that the much anticipated Tekken 7 for Xbox One, PS4, and PC will be released towards the end of 2015.

Tekken 7 will be developed with Epic Games' Unreal Engine 4. The last Tekken installment, Tekken 6, was released in 2007.

Bandai Namco expressed its excitement on working with Epic Games for Tekken 7.

"The power and flexibility means that we can focus our efforts on making Tekken 7 the best possible game without worrying about spending time creating a stand-alone graphic engine," said Tekken series executive producer and game director Katsushiro Harada.

For fans excited to find out what becomes of their beloved Tekken characters, Harada said Tekken 7 will have a very detailed backstory and will give an exciting conclusion to the Mishima family saga. Harada also revealed that Tekken 7 will have more one-on-one fights.

"We're still formulating the basic gameplay systems and polishing them," he said.

Tekken, or "Iron Fist" in Japanese, is a fighting game franchise developed in 1994. Tekken has since grown to include sequels, spin-off games, and has also been adapted into movies. Tekken tells the story of the King of the Iron Fist Tournament, which is hosted by the Mishima Zaibatsu Corporation. Winners of the tournament take control of the corporation and the right to host the next round of games.
