Bandai Namco's Fighting Games Panel at SD-CC 2016

Once again Bandai Namco put together a Fighting Games Panel at San Diego Comic-Con this weekend to have discussions with the fans on their fighting game franchises. For the Tekken side, new Tekken related merchandise were made available to buy including a new $450 'Tekken Sukajan' jacket that has reversible sides with distinct artwork. For Soul Calibur, this was merely a discussion with the fans so I hope you didn't expect some crazy new announcements (haha.) N8nmonster and Chindogg on Twitter were there in the crowd and covered most of the things at the panel so I'll be rounding their tweets together for everyone not at SD-CC. If you're interested in the new Tekken Jacket, pre-orders are now available on the Bandai Namco online store:

Early looks at how AKUMA was translated into @TEKKEN ! pic.twitter.com/rQNezMXbf3

— Nathan Aguilera (@n8nmonster) July 22, 2016

Akuma was made from the ground up at Namco because "Ono-san is cheap with the data"

— BC|EnerJon @ SDCC (@Chindogg21) July 22, 2016

The Tekken crew put in a massive amount of work into Akuma. pic.twitter.com/WLZzzQpVwe

"If you want a new Soul Calibur, spam @soulcalibur with tweets."

— BC|EnerJon @ SDCC (@Chindogg21) July 22, 2016

First guy asking about netcode for T7 and asking for Soul Calibur.

Console will use arcade netcode.

— BC|EnerJon @ SDCC (@Chindogg21) July 22, 2016

When's TxSF?

Progress made. Roster locked down. Focusing on T7 while Capcom focuses on SFV. On hold for now.

— BC|EnerJon @ SDCC (@Chindogg21) July 22, 2016

Another Soul Calibur question.

Spam @soulcalibur

— BC|EnerJon @ SDCC (@Chindogg21) July 22, 2016

Will Eliza be in T7?

We love the character, but it's probably not happening.

— BC|EnerJon @ SDCC (@Chindogg21) July 22, 2016

Another Netcode question.

They're improving the TTT2, TR netcode

— BC|EnerJon @ SDCC (@Chindogg21) July 22, 2016

Soul Calibur Tag?

Interesting idea, but probably hardcore.

— BC|EnerJon @ SDCC (@Chindogg21) July 22, 2016

Where's the cappo character?

It's difficult decision because you like them but others hate them. Maybe?

— BC|EnerJon @ SDCC (@Chindogg21) July 22, 2016

One overall story mode, or individual character story modes?

We can't say that today but it will be different then other story modes.

— BC|EnerJon @ SDCC (@Chindogg21) July 22, 2016

End of panel.

"We're sorry you had to wait, but look for the game early next year on PS4, Xbox One, and Steam."

— BC|EnerJon @ SDCC (@Chindogg21) July 22, 2016

The sukaijan preorder will be up at 2pm pst on Namco's online store.

$449 but absolutely amazing quality. Custom stitching and everything.
