It was already confirmed by the company during the Paris Game Week that Bandai Namco Entertainment will have another version of the game compatible for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. However, the date of the release has not been mentioned and all fans have now are merely speculations.

Crossmap reported that some fans are getting a little impatient because of the slow development. They think that they have been waiting too long for the Xbox One and PS4 version. All fans can do now is wait for the company's official announcement regarding its release of the latest Tekken installment.

Meanwhile, Bandai Namco Entertainment is currently developing adding more exciting features. According to Yibada, Tekken will soon feature an online matchmaking mode and "Scenario Campaign" mode. This will be a great addition to the already exciting game. This is the kind of news fans would want to hear from them.

According to Yibada, Michael Murray, Tekken's game designer, confirmed that the new version for PS4 and Xbox one will include online matchmaking. If this is true, fans around the world will have a chance to compete against each other once the new version comes out.

The game designer also added that the team is still trying to perfect the game's online matchmaking mode. They are currently exploring some technicalities to make sure it won't cost any inconvenience to the gamers when it is finally released.

There are also talks of adding new playable fighters and alternate character attires to give more twist to the game. Murray admits that they are still exploring new ideas that they can apply to the game. This could indicate a delay on the release of the new "Tekken 7" for both PS4 and Xbox One.
