Tekken 7 has revealed through its website recently two new fighting characters as the game will soon hit PC too, aside from PlayStation 4 and Xbox One this March.
According to a new report, a new Arabian and female fighting character will be added in the pool of fighters in the ninth combat game series of Tekken. The female character is still unnamed whose country remains uncertain for now, while the Arabian fighter's name remains a mystery.
Efforts of South Korean fans made the recent revelation via Tekken's official website where new set of characters have been displayed. Leaks suggest that the female fighting character hails from the Philippines.
Based on the character's costume, it suggests that the femme fighter wears a Philippine flag-inspired outfit. Tekken 7's producer Katsuhiro Harada previously told fans of the possibility of having a Filipino character. Bandai Namco, however, did not comment on this report yet but speculations grow stronger based on the images leaked.
Blood splatters have been removed from the game to avoid an M rating in the U.S. Remarkably, the state does not promote bloody battles. With this, sales will hugely affect the game in the U.S. as it will become for all ages.
Meanwhile, Jin Kazama is revealed to return in the game who longs to get away from the evil dwelling inside him called Devil Jin. Jin Kazama is the leader of Mishima Zaibatsu who declared war on the world. He had previously appeared in Tekken 3, 4, 5, 6, Dark Resurrection, and 3D: Prime Edition.
Jin was cut from the pool of characters after it was reported that the game would go back to the original release with 20 characters.
