00:00I'm gonna getcha.
00:02Gotta get that death fist in there.
00:04Uh oh, uh oh.
00:05Oh god, here we go again.
00:10Hey guys, it's Sid Schumann for PlayStation Blog.
00:12I have been looking forward to this for quite some time.
00:15Joining us, Dalton Link from Bandai Namco.
00:17Thank you so much.
00:18Hey everybody, it's community manager Dalton Link here.
00:20Super excited to show Sid some rounds of Tekken 7,
00:24some of the new modes, story mode.
00:26We're here for you, man.
00:27That's right, and we got the one, the only, Mark Mann.
00:30Mark Julio, thank you so much for joining us.
00:32No problem. Happy to be here.
00:33I'm the branding community advisor for the Tekken franchise.
00:37So I'm happy to be here again with you, Sid,
00:39to talk about Tekken, something that we both love.
00:40I love it. I love it.
00:42I've been playing it for 22 years.
00:43Let's dive in here.
00:44Alright, let's go right into versus mode.
00:45I have the tournament settings on, so this is actually really cool
00:48for the people that like competitive settings.
00:51You go right into the same settings that people use while in tournaments.
00:54Okay, cool.
00:54You could really show down and have a battle just like the pros would.
00:58You know, esports and the tournament scene are huge for us for Tekken,
01:01so we wanted to add in some features that really help the TOs
01:05and the players, you know, make it a little easier for them
01:08to set up tournaments on their own.
01:10Here's a good example.
01:12You can actually change your settings and test your buttons
01:14right in the character selection screen.
01:16This is huge.
01:17Yeah, so really eliminate, you know, button checks, save some time
01:21for the commentators and the tournament operators
01:23so they don't have to chit chat.
01:25That's great.
01:26It's really cool, and not just for setting your buttons.
01:28If you want to check if your controller is actually working,
01:30there's a virtual on-screen controller and it shows you
01:32everything that works there.
01:33Great.
01:33I see you're already set up there.
01:35I'm already set up.
01:35And just for those listening who are maybe curious about Tekken,
01:38I've been playing 22 years.
01:39I'm not as good as probably either of these guys,
01:41but I know what I'm doing.
01:41and a lot of it on the DualShock is customizing your shoulder buttons,
01:46customizing L1, R1, R2, L2 if you want to.
01:50Just making easy throws, combining the punch buttons,
01:54combining the kick buttons allows for just, you know,
01:56it just gives you a little bit of an edge if you're not as technical,
01:58which I certainly am not.
02:00Got it.
02:01I think I screwed myself up here.
02:04Mark's going to go with Aliza.
02:06She's the DLC pre-order bonus.
02:10So if you pre-order the game before launch on June 2nd,
02:13you will get Aliza on day one.
02:15It's a great value proposition.
02:17I mean, you get to add a new character to the roster.
02:19She's an awesome character.
02:21So, yeah, get out there and pre-order.
02:23Very nice.
02:25This is coming, I want to say June 2nd?
02:27June 2nd on PlayStation 4.
02:29This is right around the corner.
02:31Yeah.
02:32Exactly.
02:32One month away.
02:33Today we're recording is one month away.
02:37All right.
02:38So I've been playing this series forever.
02:41So what is somebody like me who's like kind of a veteran of the
02:43series, what are they going to maybe notice first and foremost
02:46with Tekken 7?
02:46First and foremost, you'll probably notice like right at the
02:48character selection, when you load into the match, there's two
02:51new things here.
02:51There's the rage art and the rage drive.
02:53So you see it as you're going into the match, rage art with Paul,
02:56once you get down to where your life bar is flashing red,
02:58you're able to do a super powerful attack with both punches.
03:01And once we get there, I'll call it out.
03:03that way you can kind of try it out.
03:04But he has access to the rage jar.
03:06And just a number of options now.
03:08When you are close to dying, there's like way more stuff that
03:11you can do.
03:11And it's really cool.
03:12Yeah.
03:12So when your character glows red, when you're low health,
03:14you actually do more damage.
03:16So you have a higher chance of coming back.
03:18And then as Mark mentioned, there's two particular types of move,
03:21a rage art and a rage drive.
03:22A rage art, as you can see there.
03:24So now you're in rage.
03:25Just hit both punches together at the same time.
03:27And it does this ultra powerful attack.
03:29So that's the rage art.
03:31And that'll start an auto combo.
03:33Super powerful move, obviously.
03:34But once you use your rage.
03:35I needed that.
03:36Yeah, exactly.
03:37But once you use your rage move, you don't get it back.
03:40But I think you're going to get hit there.
03:42And Alisa's got a really awesome one.
03:45This is cool.
03:46Tekken can be famous for some blowouts.
03:48So this is like a little bit of an equalizer.
03:50Exactly.
03:51So we wanted to give an option for players that maybe aren't
03:54quite as good or just getting slammed up against the side,
03:57get hit into a really big combo.
03:58So it allows you to kind of turn the tables and come back.
04:01Nice.
04:02And then there's also another rage move called a rage drive.
04:06Yeah.
04:06And that's actually more of a technical input.
04:09But it's good to put in between a combo.
04:11It's also a good combo starter.
04:14It's for a higher level play.
04:16But if you can link it in the right way, it can be devastating.
04:21I'm going to get you.
04:22Oh, baby.
04:24Got to get that death fist in there.
04:26Here we go again.
04:29So Alisa is a pretty interesting character.
04:31As you can see, she has an EX meter.
04:33There's only two characters in the game that have an EX meter.
04:35That's Akuma and Alisa.
04:37So Alisa has an interesting way that she builds her EX meter.
04:41Mark can show you.
04:42She actually has this option where she can go to sleep.
04:44Yeah, so she's really weird.
04:46So the way her meter works is just like a lot of things.
04:48Like if you're doing attacks, it'll slowly go up.
04:50But if she can go to sleep, she's a narcoleptic vampire.
04:53She builds up meter way faster.
04:55She's a narcoleptic vampire?
04:57She tends to have conversations with a lot of the characters
04:59and interacts with them that she'll just fall asleep out of nowhere.
05:01That's incredible.
05:02So you see as she's falling asleep, she's vulnerable.
05:04So you can actually hit me while I'm falling asleep
05:05and kind of interrupt me from building that meter.
05:08Interesting.
05:08So her blood gauge will fill over time and she becomes much more dangerous
05:11once she has the blood gauge.
05:12because she has fireballs, she has a bevy of moves.
05:15And then she can cancel her fireballs and do even EX moves.
05:19So she has EX dive kick which goes right into combo.
05:22She has EX kind of like similar like in a dragon punch motion.
05:25Huh.
05:26You guys been busy.
05:27Yeah.
05:29I'm doing all the like Tekken 3 stuff here.
05:31Oh, it still works.
05:32Trust me.
05:34Nice.
05:34Good counter hit there.
05:35Bam.
05:36You know, a lot of the combos from the older games, you know,
05:40translate to some degree.
05:41There's obviously new combos.
05:43And in actually the training mode, you can actually go in and see
05:46some of the combos.
05:47Some of the more technical combos.
05:49Some of the beginner combos.
05:50So if you're just starting out, there's a lot of ways to kind of
05:53get into that more competitive play.
05:55Obviously, if you play online, you're going to run into a lot of combos.
05:59So we have your life bar flashing now.
06:01So once you have flashing life, you actually do more damage.
06:03But we mentioned earlier, you did the rage art, but you also have the rage drive,
06:07which Dalton mentioned.
06:08And if you know his Phoenix match, his quarter circle forward right punch.
06:11Yeah.
06:11He has an ultra powerful version of that if you do both punches.
06:14Oh, okay.
06:15Where he squirts blue and it just knocks the opponent across the stage.
06:18A great comeback mechanic, really, if you're doing it right into the match.
06:21Oh, yeah.
06:21Yeah.
06:22So you can use that and then start a combo, follow up on that.
06:25Or if you can actually put that into the middle of a combo, you know,
06:27you could really link that into something huge.
06:30So, yeah, as we said, we wanted to give players an option to come back.
06:34You know, we didn't want someone to get steamrolled in one combo.
06:39So the rage mechanics really offered that option for players that maybe
06:44aren't quite as good.
06:45Or if you're playing at a really high level, if you just get bodied in the
06:48beginning, you can kind of turn it around.
06:50And adds for really interesting kind of cinematic mechanic to it.
06:55There's also slow-mo finishes.
06:56Hopefully we'll see some here.
06:58But if two players at the end of a match hit each other at the same time,
07:01it will zoom in and go into slow-mo.
07:03And you can actually see who landed the hit, which is awesome.
07:07So I actually bested you.
07:08You were playing at full capability there, right?
07:09Oh, yeah.
07:10A hundred percent.
07:11I feel really sad now because I know this is probably your first time
07:13really touching it too.
07:15Let's try out some different characters here.
07:17Yeah.
07:17I can just feel him toying with me, which is, I mean, you got to do that
07:20sometimes when you're the veteran in the room, you know?
07:23So, yeah.
07:24Once we get back to the roster, it's 35-plus characters at launch.
07:27So there's a really diverse group of types of characters.
07:31I mean, you can be anything from a bear to Elisa, who's a pink-haired robot
07:36with chainsaw arms.
07:37That's right.
07:37You know, we got the new Tekken 7 Yoshimitsu.
07:40He's got kind of this tentacle thing going on.
07:43Oh, interesting.
07:44Oh, and the amount of stages are awesome.
07:46And you can see here, Sid, there's different types of stages.
07:50So these icons represent kind of what the stages have.
07:53So since that stage has no walls, so that's wide open.
07:57Some stages have two different platforms where you can knock them in.
08:01I get it.
08:02Some have areas where they can get knocked down into the middle of the stage.
08:04That's awesome.
08:05Yeah.
08:05I like the little icons are super helpful.
08:07Yeah.
08:08Yeah, exactly.
08:08And, you know, Tekken's always been really popular for how there's a lot of
08:11different types of arenas.
08:13Yep.
08:13I mean, obviously it's an eight-way 3D fighter, so that allows you to
08:16create 3D space, which is awesome.
08:20So let's pick randomly.
08:22Oh, we got an Arctic Snowfall.
08:23I tend to do better on these levels, I'll be honest with you.
08:25So Mark and I have been going out to the tournaments, and for a long time we
08:30were playing with some of the earlier builds, so it didn't have the full
08:32roster of stages.
08:33So I know we've seen this stage a few times.
08:36And this song, I think, is ingrained into our memories.
08:39I just hear it when I'm sleeping.
08:41That's all.
08:42So Dragunov introduced in Tekken 5 Dark Resurrection.
08:45Yep.
08:45Probably my all-time favorite Tekken character.
08:47Oh, wow.
08:47Probably the creepiest character in a fighting game.
08:49I love him.
08:49He's super cool.
08:51Oh, have you seen his rage art yet?
08:52Oh, okay.
08:53I haven't seen anything.
08:54His rage art is great.
08:54It's super cool.
08:55And then you're Akuma, obviously.
08:57Needs no introduction.
08:58Special guest from the Street Fighter series.
09:01Oh, that's actually pretty different.
09:03Having to deal with fireballs.
09:05Yeah.
09:05So yeah, that's a really interesting point to bring up there.
09:09Because obviously Akuma, famous from the Street Fighter franchise, famous for
09:13playing on a 2D platform.
09:15So to be in a 3D fighter, it's a bit different.
09:18You know, most of the characters in Tekken aren't used to dealing with a fireball
09:23character, a character that can jump so high.
09:26So it's really an interesting addition.
09:29I personally think they did a really, really good job of adding him into Tekken series.
09:34He's been definitely a fan favorite.
09:36And it's great to see kind of some of the pro players start to pick him up and, you know,
09:40play him in a different setting.
09:45So the Bound seems like it's gotten reworked a little bit from Tekken 6.
09:49It's actually a bit different from what you're probably used to from Tekken 6.
09:53Yeah.
09:53So Bound was really the combo extender in that game.
09:55But in Tekken 7, it's now known as the screw attack.
09:58So certain properties, moves that kind of knock away with the screw.
10:02And for example, like for Dragunov, it's back right kick, left kick.
10:05He'll do these two kicks.
10:06And then if he lands it in the air, it'll actually knock me away.
10:09And that lets you extend your combo.
10:11Similar to like how the Bound worked in previous games.
10:14Oh, you killed him.
10:15Yeah, Dragunov combo's coming out.
10:17Sid knows what he's doing.
10:20Okay.
10:20Okay.
10:21So I'm going to be towards Rage Art.
10:22So I have access to the Rage Art here.
10:23Let's see if I can land it.
10:24I think he's too much of a...
10:25He's not going to let me land the Raging Demon here.
10:28I can't or I'm dead.
10:29Yeah.
10:30That's what it does.
10:31Okay.
10:32So I got to launch.
10:33Now, that's an example of the screw right there.
10:35Able to extend my combo further.
10:37So the Backpack both kicks, it seems like it doesn't do the Vault Up anymore.
10:39Does that work differently now?
10:40No, it's actually different.
10:41So they reworked some of his moves and some of his moves sets.
10:43Got it.
10:43The Vault Up now for everybody, the quick get up is both kicks while you're on the floor.
10:47Oh, got it.
10:47So if I knock you down in that position.
10:50Cool.
10:50And it's much faster this time around.
10:52Yeah, yeah, yeah.
10:52So you no longer feel helpless.
10:53I know there's some situations in Tekken where you're attacking your opponent
10:55and you're just getting mauled on the floor and you can't get upright.
10:58Yeah, yeah.
10:58That spring kick actually gets you out of jail pretty easily now.
11:01Awesome.
11:02So I'm going to see if I can hurt.
11:04Oh, nice work.
11:06Like that?
11:06Yeah.
11:07Let me see if I can get some revenge here.
11:09There we go.
11:11Die a thousand deaths.
11:12Uh-oh.
11:13If I still have my other meter, I can do my super hopefully.
11:17Whoop.
11:18Oh, no.
11:18Oh, no.
11:19Punished.
11:20Punished on the dragon punch.
11:21You want to do a rematch there?
11:22I went real quick.
11:23You know what?
11:24I wasn't focusing enough.
11:25Let me see if we can do this.
11:27Let's go for it.
11:28Let's go for this.
11:29But it looks like you're pretty comfortable with the dragon.
11:31Yeah, yeah.
11:31I can put up a fight.
11:34Definitely knows stuff.
11:34So obviously the team did a lot of work to make sure that Akuma was,
11:37you know, really well modeled, has all the same movesets.
11:44Actually, that's kind of the Ultra of the Street Fighter IV maneuver
11:48where you can kind of, it's his power crush.
11:52Yeah.
11:52His focus attack kind of implemented from the Street Fighter IV series.
11:54I see.
11:55Exactly.
11:57Oh, nice.
11:58Oh, and the pressure.
11:59He knows the tools.
12:00See, a lot of the Legacy skill actually carries over.
12:02So if you've played the past second game, you could really easily go into it.
12:05It's just a matter of like kind of learning the new combo system as well.
12:09But now you have to do fireballs.
12:11And I could do them in there.
12:13Oh, nice.
12:14Good.
12:14Able to kind of pick your spot there.
12:16So you have access to the Rage right now.
12:18So if you want to try it, I believe it's back both punches.
12:21Oh, wait.
12:21It's not back both punches, is it?
12:23Down both punches.
12:23Oh, there you go.
12:25Oh, just out of range.
12:26I'm whiff.
12:28So as you can see, you lost.
12:29Now you lost your Rage because you whiffed it.
12:32So you don't get the damage boost anymore and you don't have the option to do that Rage anymore.
12:36So you can just stick with the damage boost.
12:37Yeah, you can.
12:38And actually, the lower life you have, the more damage you do.
12:41Oh, interesting.
12:41So you can actually kind of play this cat and mouse game.
12:44You know, like, oh, maybe I should get my life down real low and just body him.
12:57Oh, nice.
12:58That's like the forward pressure you're putting on.
13:00Oh, he's doing the strings.
13:02He almost got me there.
13:03I was like, how do you block that?
13:05Oh, good blocks for Mark though.
13:07Heating up.
13:09Okay.
13:09Let's see what we can do.
13:12Oh, the pressure.
13:14Oh.
13:15All right.
13:16Both in Rage.
13:18Oh, the slow motion.
13:20I can't believe he stashed me out of the air.
13:23That was really cool.
13:24So that's a slow-mo finish I was mentioning earlier.
13:26So add some real cinematic moments.
13:32Let's see if we can kill some offense here.
13:34I'm down by a lot here.
13:36Have a chance.
13:37I'm going to get you.
13:40Okay.
13:41Oh, man.
13:43He's treating you like a book right now.
13:45Terrible.
13:46Terrible.
13:47Mark just turned up the gate a little bit.
13:48right there.
13:50I can get him.
13:52Oh, nice.
13:53Good block.
13:53Wow.
13:53That was good punish.
13:55Okay.
13:58Maybe play a bit more cautious on my side.
13:59I'm building up.
14:00Now that I have my meter, I'm feeling pretty competent.
14:03Let's see.
14:06You made me believe I could do something here.
14:09You might.
14:09I mean, once you have Rage, you have an opportunity.
14:11Let's see if you can land at Rage Yard this time again.
14:15Uh-oh.
14:16I was pressing a button.
14:17Oh, yeah.
14:18So watch this.
14:19It's awesome.
14:20So just like so bad.
14:21If you didn't think dragging up was scary before.
14:23So hard hitting.
14:26Amazing.
14:28Oh, nice.
14:31Oh, good trade.
14:32See, that's another thing that happens now.
14:33When you trade blows, it kind of zooms in and gets more focused on the action.
14:37That's super cool.
14:37A nice visual cue.
14:38A lot of good fit and finish.
14:39Let's try a couple more here.
14:41I might give you my Nina.
14:42Uh-oh.
14:43See how I do there.
14:43She actually looks really different in this game.
14:45I don't know if you've seen her.
14:46No.
14:46Okay.
14:46You'll see once you get to the character select screen.
14:48You haven't seen Waifu Nina yet?
14:49Oh, yeah.
14:51Interesting.
14:52Yeah, she's another classic.
14:54Tekken's just been part of my gaming life for just decades.
14:57I have so many fond memories playing Tekken.
15:00One, two, three, five with the huge resurgence.
15:03She's up there by Akuma, yeah.
15:04Look at this.
15:05Bride Nina.
15:06Little bit Kill Bill.
15:07Yeah.
15:07Kill Bill, the bride.
15:09So I picked one of my favorite characters.
15:11I picked King.
15:13And I wanted to do the throwback.
15:14I believe it's a PlayStation exclusive costume.
15:16It's the classic Tekken 2 King.
15:18You have that polka dot tie.
15:19Yeah.
15:19Love it.
15:20We're going to go right into it.
15:21Add to dress formal.
15:22I mean, if you're wearing the wedding dress, I've got to put on,
15:24you know, the tie, the suspenders.
15:26You've got to look nice and spiffy here.
15:28There's a dress code for this fight.
15:29Yep.
15:30Oh, and we're in the infinite Azure stage.
15:32Mark's favorite.
15:33This is my favorite.
15:34That plays well to Nina's strengths.
15:37Yeah.
15:37There we go.
15:39I guess it's a check or tie.
15:41This should be fun.
15:42Round one.
15:44All right.
15:44We'll see what you know.
15:45Oh.
15:45All right.
15:46Right after the gates.
15:50The stage kind of reminds me of another PlayStation game,
15:52Bloodborne.
15:53Oh, it does.
15:54Yeah.
15:55Rom the back is spider fight, huh?
15:58That's right.
15:58That's good.
15:59Oh, yeah.
16:01You're just making me want to play this game for like eight
16:03hours straight.
16:04Doing all my king moves on me here.
16:06Oh, bam.
16:07Nice combo.
16:08Oh, went for the elbow there.
16:09Using the spring kick there, it gets you out of a lot of
16:11situations.
16:13Yeah.
16:13Oh, so you now have access to her rage drive.
16:15I believe hers is down both punches.
16:17Similar to kind of like I get striking off.
16:18Oh, here's the commander roll.
16:20Nice.
16:21Oh, that should kill me because if you have such low life,
16:23it's going to do extra damage.
16:26Nice.
16:27Beautiful.
16:29Really cool.
16:30And you probably noticed she had a veil on her head,
16:31but throughout the fight there's some of the elements
16:34that were closing that can get knocked off.
16:36Whoa, nice.
16:41All right.
16:42Let's see the water effects.
16:44It's actually really nice.
16:44and I like the stage for the scenery.
16:47It makes me feel good.
16:48Oh, let's see if I can get something cool.
16:49Yeah, the team did a great job making the stage
16:53is really beautiful.
16:53There's a lot of awesome stages and a really wide repertoire
16:57of different types of stages as we talked about earlier.
17:00Wide open stages, stages that break the walls,
17:03break the ground.
17:04And some of the stages actually have dynamic changes.
17:07So once you get to a final round, some of the stages,
17:09the weather conditions will change, the time of day will change,
17:13the music will change to get up.
17:15Oh, that was so cool.
17:16Cool.
17:18Slow motion.
17:19Oh, brother.
17:20I thought I had to.
17:23I'm going to use some of that power crush.
17:25Oh, Nina actually has a power crush.
17:26So power crush in this game is like an armored move.
17:29I was just going to say, yeah.
17:29So hers is the blood mob.
17:31It's forward both punches.
17:32And if I do that while you're doing it,
17:35you'll absorb the moves and kind of change the momentum of the match.
17:39Yeah, so if you're just getting like pummeled,
17:41you know, someone's putting a lot of aggression on you
17:43and you kind of know how to telegraph some of their attacks,
17:46you can time that.
17:47You absorb one attack and then you're knocking the back
17:49and you kind of get back into the fight.
17:51Nice. Good to know.
17:57Mark's played this a few times for me.
18:00Devastating.
18:01And then she also has a special version of,
18:04whoa, nice string.
18:06If you do forward, right punch and left kick at the same time,
18:09she has a rage drive, which is actually really cool.
18:10It comes up so fast.
18:11It's like an instant running blonde bomb.
18:14Nice.
18:14And it just like pushes king across the stage.
18:17So like most of the characters have that.
18:19They have obviously the rage art, the rage drive,
18:22a lot of different elements.
18:24Kind of like choose your own adventure towards the end of the match.
18:28Oh.
18:29I don't like this adventure I'm on right now.
18:30I can play that.
18:31It's a horror story.
18:32Oh, nice.
18:33Good patience there.
18:34I can smell that one.
18:35Oh, there you go.
18:36There we go.
18:38Oh, I love punch off.
18:39Oh.
18:40Yeah.
18:40So the rage drive can be a real good combo starter.
18:42Or as I said,
18:43if you can actually work it into the middle of a combo,
18:46you could really do some devastating stuff.
18:49I was going to try and...
18:50I'm going to try my two.
18:52So Mark, you can talk a little about the throw breaks in this one.
18:54The throw breaks have changed a little bit.
18:56Oh, yeah.
18:56They have.
18:57So like in the past,
18:57you know, throws have been a really good option.
19:00But to make it more beginner friendly,
19:02the team has kind of changed the balance around.
19:04So if you do like a normal throw now,
19:05before, like let's say go ahead and do a throw.
19:08So that one is traditionally broken with the right punch
19:10in past second games.
19:11But now you can do either right or left punch.
19:13So if you grab me again, it's not going to matter.
19:15I can hit left or right punch and I'll be able to break it.
19:17Got it.
19:17Okay.
19:18That's a little handier.
19:19Because we know those folks that cheese the throws.
19:21Yes.
19:21Oh, yeah.
19:22Especially certain characters.
19:23Oh, yeah.
19:24Especially the character like I'm using right now.
19:26I wasn't going to say that, Mark.
19:27Thanks for the tips.
19:29The hints.
19:30All right.
19:30Now we're both ready.
19:31Just going to get crazy.
19:33Oh, I hope that hits.
19:35Oh, right in time.
19:37Nice.
19:38You got to win one now and then, right?
19:40Every now and then.
19:42Okay.
19:42Time to tone it down a little bit here.
19:45I had my suit on.
19:46I got a little too excited.
19:47That was good.
19:48That was good.
19:49Good play.
19:50It's paw prints on the tie.
19:51Oh, it is.
19:53I've never noticed that.
19:53The power of PlayStation technology.
19:57I always thought it was checkered.
19:59Yeah.
19:59I thought it was like spots or checkered or something.
20:01I'm going to have to go back to the archives and look at
20:02second two.
20:03Yeah.
20:03Second two is probably checkered.
20:04Maybe it was paw prints.
20:06Maybe it was paw prints.
20:07We don't have the technology today.
20:08But someday we'll be able to render this at full fidelity.
20:12One day, 2017, that's the day.
20:14The tie technology will be there, guys.
20:17They've been putting this together for years.
20:19Let's see here.
20:20Who am I in the mood for?
20:21I don't want to embarrass myself.
20:23Maybe I'll go.
20:24Brian.
20:24Brian's always muscular.
20:26You got Eddie Gordo, too, in the corner.
20:27Not my style.
20:29Not my style.
20:30Let's see.
20:31I went through my basics.
20:32I think I'm tempted to go back to Dragunov because I might
20:35stand a chance there.
20:36Let's try Brian.
20:37I see the competitive fuel is coming out.
20:38You want to put up a crazy fight.
20:40All right.
20:40Yeah.
20:41I don't know.
20:41Who do you want to see?
20:41Is there any character that you really haven't seen that you
20:43want to take a look at?
20:44Who's new in this one?
20:46So there's quite a few new characters.
20:47So Josie Rizal is a new kickboxing character from the
20:49Philippines.
20:50We have Lucky Chloe who's kind of like the dancing style
20:53fighting character.
20:53I think we got to go with her.
20:54Okay.
20:55We're going to go with Chloe?
20:55Okay.
20:56Let me put on the blue outfit.
20:58And as you guys saw, when he goes into that costume selection
21:02screen, there's some slots for custom slots.
21:05So you can build your own.
21:07We'll show it a little bit later, but there's a customization
21:09screen where you can change so many things about your character.
21:13Glasses, hairstyle, face paint, different types of tops,
21:18bottoms, you name it.
21:20And some of them are just absurd.
21:22Wacky.
21:23Like just wacky.
21:24You can put like a motorized fan on your head.
21:26You can put a skull face on Chloe.
21:29You know, you name it.
21:30But like once everyone starts to play online, I'm really
21:33excited to see kind of some of the costumes we're going to
21:35come up against.
21:36So yeah, this girl likes to dance.
21:38She's all over the place.
21:40Oh, nice.
21:41Mock kick.
21:46Oh, bitch delay there.
21:48So this is an awesome stage.
21:51It's kind of significant for the story mode if everyone's been
21:54kind of watching the trailers.
21:55There's just kind of this epic showdown between Kazuya and
21:57Heihachi on this volcano.
21:59Also the volcano kind of a metaphor for the game.
22:03Yup.
22:03As kind of the rage of the Mishima clan.
22:07The raging volcano that is the Mishima clan.
22:09Now this is said to be the sort of conclusion of the Mishima
22:13clan story, right?
22:14The Mishima saga.
22:14Yeah.
22:1520 year Mishima saga.
22:16So really excited for the fans to get their hands on the
22:19story mode.
22:19A lot of really interesting kind of tidbits,
22:24throwback to the story as well as new details and some great
22:29twists and turns.
22:30Obviously Akuma in the game.
22:32You know, he kind of has a little bit of a hand in the story
22:34mode as well.
22:35So don't want to give away too much.
22:37We can show a little bit moving forward,
22:39but I want to make sure that the fans can experience that
22:41until the second.
22:42Nice.
22:43Yeah.
22:43Game's looking good.
22:45Yeah.
22:46We're really excited about it.
22:47You know, one month out for launch.
22:49Obviously the team has done a lot of work on the game
22:51coming off the arcade version in Japan and Korea.
22:58And, you know, a lot of care and work has been done to add the
23:03new characters in, get it ready for console, balance all the
23:06characters out, get the online functionality ready.
23:10You know, there's an online tournament mode that we're really
23:13excited about.
23:14So you and up to eight friends can all get together, put together
23:18their own online tournaments.
23:20So, you know, Friday night you really want to see who's the best at
23:24Tekken that week.
23:25Yeah.
23:27So, yeah, really excited for the fans to get their hands off the game.
23:33And this lucky Chloe is just dusting the floor with me right now.
23:38Oh, she stayed on the floor.
23:40Oh, perfect.
23:41Yeah.
23:42She danced her way to victory there.
23:43All right.
23:44Let's see what else there is to see in this.
23:46I know this isn't it.
23:47Obviously versus mode is bread and butter for a lot of folks.
23:48Yeah.
23:48Let's go back to the main menu and we can jump into the other modes.
23:52Sid, why don't you want to jump into the story mode?
23:55Sure.
23:55Yeah, I can do that.
23:56Sure.
23:56Should I use this controller to get you right in there?
23:59Perfect.
24:00So where do you want to start?
24:01Oh, he's going right into it.
24:02Right in level three.
24:03Let's go right into it.
24:04I know what I'm doing.
24:06So this is really the focus again that we were talking about.
24:09It's going to be the end of the Mishima saga.
24:10So leading up to that, it's going to kind of catch up the player on all
24:13the things that have happened over the past many years leading up to
24:16this point.
24:16So I know you're a Tekken fan.
24:19I think you'll get a kick out of this opening sequence here.
24:21I was so happy I cried.
24:26So they really pulled no stops as far as the story and everything that they're describing.
24:30So this is a different perspective how the story is being told.
24:35So this is a journalist here that's really studying what's going on within the Mishima
24:39family and everything that's going on in the world.
24:40So you know he's doing the research on Heihachi, doing the research on Kazuya,
24:44and he finds out that there's this huge conflict between these two
24:46and it's been going on for a while.
24:48Obviously, Kazuya with the G Corporation, Heihachi with the Mishima Zaibatsu.
24:51This is a friendly message, you know, that you might send your dad on Father's Day.
24:56Right before he drops you into a volcano.
24:57Yeah.
24:58Oh, that's funny you bred that up.
25:01So we take a flashback to even before Tekken 1.
25:04This is way back in the day.
25:06Oh, wow.
25:07You see a little Kazuya.
25:11So one really interesting thing about the story mode is there's fluidity
25:16between the cutscene and the gameplay.
25:18So you'll notice here.
25:19Yeah.
25:20Seamless integration of gameplay with the cutscenes.
25:22And I think it's really cool.
25:23So you now have access to controlling little Kazuya here.
25:26But it's really cool.
25:27So you have access to all the moves there.
25:28You see on the screen there's like a little notification.
25:31But you also have the story assist.
25:32So during certain parts of the story mode you can use the story assist.
25:37So if you hold the R1 button it will give you access to more moves.
25:40If I hold the R1 button?
25:41I think it's L1.
25:42Oh, I'm sorry. L1.
25:43Bam.
25:44So now you can do instant Electric Wind Godfist by just tapping one button.
25:48But it looks like Heihachi is still not having any of it.
25:51Standing strong.
25:52Not letting his child do any damage to him.
25:55I've got to say it's pretty impressive that Kostiri had some of those moves down
25:58at such a young age.
25:59Oh, yeah.
26:00Yeah.
26:03You know, it's been a long time since we've seen the inclusion of like, you know,
26:08story mode and cinematics in games.
26:09It's really changed like especially towards the 90s and 2000s.
26:12Yeah.
26:12So one of the best, my favorite things, I don't know if you like,
26:15if you're a fan of quick time events.
26:16Sure, yeah.
26:17But quick time events, you love them or hate them.
26:19Yeah.
26:19But in my opinion this is the evolution of the quick time event.
26:22This is the greatest moment of all quick time events in history.
26:27And we're about to witness it right now.
26:29So you've got to decide.
26:30How are you going to do this, Sid?
26:31Oh, man.
26:32Are you going to do it?
26:33Are you going to wait?
26:33Are you going to kind of do it nonchalantly?
26:35Yeah.
26:36Let's just throw him off.
26:39I didn't know he was doing stuff like this when this kid was so young.
26:42Yeah.
26:43It's been a long rocky road between those two.
26:45Yeah.
26:46I mean they're just throwing each other off bigger and badder things
26:48each game.
26:49One of them they're strapping each other to rockets and stuff.
26:51Oh, yeah.
26:53Cool.
26:53Do you want to jump into some other modes?
26:55Yeah.
26:55Let's check out a couple of the other modes where we sign off here.
26:57Yeah.
26:57I just wanted to give you a little taste of what the story mode kind of entails.
27:01You know, all fully animated cut scenes, great kind of gameplay variety.
27:08There's some really interesting sections that I think the fans are really going to enjoy.
27:11And obviously the story arc of Machina.
27:13If you want to try the treasure battle actually.
27:15So this is going to be the mode that you want to play if you want to unlock items within
27:19the game.
27:19Which help towards the customization.
27:21But I think it's just a cool little throwback to like you remember the ghost battle in previous second games.
27:26Yeah, definitely.
27:27Yeah, you just play against computer AI controlled opponents.
27:29You could rank up your character.
27:31But not only that you earn items in each battle.
27:33But the really cool thing about treasure battle.
27:35Oh, I didn't want it wrong.
27:36I'm sure you could do it.
27:38But if you want to really progress through this, you're going to end up having a lot of special battles.
27:42And I'm not sure if we're going to encounter one or not.
27:44But every now and then there's going to be some crazy double damage, double speed.
27:49Yeah, interesting.
27:50Turbo.
27:50And then it makes it really crazy.
27:52There's a lot of different elements that can change the gameplay.
27:55But it looks like you're starting off here.
27:56You have a promotion chance starting off the first match.
28:00Oh, he's pulling off the classic combo.
28:01Doing some Tekken 3 stuff.
28:02I see you.
28:03That's right.
28:03So you see that?
28:05There's an icon there of a chest down at the bottom.
28:07So that's what you're fighting for.
28:08So that'll get you fight money, which gives you an option to buy more items.
28:11But you also get a random item for your character sometimes.
28:15And then some that are good for all the characters.
28:17So as you can see, this Nina is obviously already decked out in custom gear.
28:23Yeah, no longer wearing the wedding dress.
28:24Looks like she's ready to plant some seeds or something.
28:28Plant some seeds.
28:29Well, she has a gun too.
28:30Maybe she's an officer.
28:32Who knows?
28:34But making quick work of Nina.
28:35No problem here for Sid.
28:36The legacy skills carrying over.
28:38Right?
28:39And then we'll see what prize you get.
28:40Yeah.
28:42So you also got the promotion.
28:44Not only that, you'll see there you get gold, which you use a lot.
28:47Or you can purchase some things, whether it's through the gallery mode or items themselves.
28:51Oh, nice.
28:52So you got a helmet to go with your cool outfit.
28:54So I'll have to put that on.
28:55We'll have to put that on later.
28:56But yeah, as you can see, you'll get different bonuses based on how well you do,
28:59how much damage you took, how quickly you finish the battle.
29:02I'm going to be playing a lot of this, I can tell.
29:04You want to drive here?
29:05Yeah.
29:05Let me show you some cool stuff here.
29:07So going right into the customization mode, there's actually two kinds.
29:11So we can go real quick to a player customization and kind of show off.
29:14This is new stuff that hasn't been in Tekken before.
29:16So you're actually able to configure the titles that you have there.
29:20So you can see there under the username, you could put in some cool things that you can unlock throughout
29:24the gameplay.
29:25That's awesome.
29:25Not just that, you could also unlock the border for that title as well.
29:30But the really cool thing is going into the match, you have this nameplate at the start that shows on
29:34the versus or the loading screen.
29:35You could really change the graphical outlook.
29:38And that's just one element for the customization.
29:40This is going to show up like obviously when you play people online.
29:43But the real cool thing is you could change the look of the light bars, which really changes the height
29:46of the game.
29:47And also I just want to point out that this mode has some sweet music.
29:51It's got this smooth jazz.
29:53We know a lot of people are going to be in these menus for a long time.
29:56So we wanted something that was easy on the ears.
29:58Easy on the ears.
29:58Got to have it.
30:00But going right into the character customization.
30:03Always a strength for this series.
30:06Oh, yeah.
30:07Five for sure.
30:07Yeah. Five is really where it started to take off.
30:10Who do you want to see?
30:10Is there a character you want to see?
30:11Let's see.
30:12I don't know.
30:12Let's do Jhin.
30:15Okay.
30:15We'll go to Jhin.
30:16So I already made a customization for the classic Tekken 4 Jhin.
30:20But we'll start a fresh one here and kind of really go over the different categories that it has.
30:24And Dalton can talk about it as I scroll through.
30:27Yeah.
30:27And as I mentioned on that previous screen, you can make multiple different custom characters.
30:31And then when you're in the character selection screen, you can choose which one.
30:34So maybe one game you want to be, you know, classic Tekken 4 Jhin.
30:41Or the next time you want to be a crazy Jhin with, you know, face paint and a fan on
30:47your head.
30:48You know?
30:48I want that frog on the head.
30:49That's what I'm looking at there.
30:51Oh, yeah.
30:51That's definitely a premium item there.
30:53Oh, that's sweet.
30:53You can see we don't have quite enough fight money for it.
30:55But we'll get there one day.
30:57One day.
30:57Maybe we'll show them a few more of the head options there.
31:00Oh, yeah.
31:00There's a lot of crazy ones.
31:02Whoa.
31:03Plague Doctor.
31:04Whoa.
31:05Be a deer.
31:08That's getting kind of crazy.
31:09If you want to do your best Skeletor cosplay, it's possible.
31:13But then hair accessories, of course, different kinds of eyeglasses, shades, sunglasses.
31:19And then you can just add a nice beard if you want.
31:22Big grouse.
31:24And then they have these face paints.
31:26Yeah.
31:26Nice.
31:27Skull face.
31:28And then these can all be saved as custom loadouts basically.
31:31That you can just, when you're selecting Jin next time, you can save it.
31:35And yeah.
31:35Exactly.
31:36Shirtless Jin.
31:37You can do any combination you want here to sort of save it.
31:39Yeah.
31:39And each character has ten different customization slots.
31:41So if you want ten different outfits depending on what day of the week it is.
31:44Do you want to use the Tekken 3 pants?
31:46It's in there.
31:47All the fun stuff that you probably come to know most in the Tekken series.
31:50And then we're talking about the PlayStation exclusive outfits.
31:52Tekken 4 Jin.
31:54I always like that outfit a lot.
31:55Oh, yeah.
31:56Good outfit.
31:56It's a fan favorite for sure.
31:58And this is where it starts to get pretty out there.
32:00Put a pizza on your back.
32:01Do you feel like pizza?
32:02Yeah.
32:03Or maybe you want the butterfly wings which you unlocked earlier.
32:06Now remember in Tekken, I think it was Tekken 5,
32:09probably Tekken 6, they had like the item moves.
32:11Is that still a thing?
32:12Yeah.
32:13It's actually a thing.
32:13So there's certain items that you can get and that you can equip the accessories here.
32:17Like for example, the gun.
32:19You can actually use it in the match as well.
32:21It's not the kind of thing that's going to like transform your fighting style necessarily.
32:25Definitely not.
32:26It's kind of like a fun little effect you can toss out.
32:29And I think there's also a special mirror item too that you can use.
32:32Can you show that one?
32:33Yeah.
32:34So this prevents your opponent from moving once you are KO'd.
32:38So let's say you get knocked out and there's this guy that teabags all the time.
32:41But you don't want to get teabagged.
32:42Oh, man.
32:43It keeps that from happening.
32:44That's kind of fun actually.
32:46Because I'm big on, I don't do that, but I like to punch or I get that stomp in like
32:49at the last set.
32:50You probably noticed that.
32:51Yeah.
32:52That's cool.
32:52And then there's custom character panels as well.
32:58Cool.
32:59Well, Tekken 7, man.
33:02Yeah.
33:02Looking great.
33:03Thanks for coming by showing off Tekken 7.

33:10Although it's right before E3, which is going to make it a little more difficult.
33:12It'll be tough.
33:13But I'm sure we'll find some time.
33:14Maybe we can get some matches in online or something.
33:16Yeah.
33:16We can do an online tournament.
