Tekken 7 - Bandai Namco Entertainment Fighting Game Panel 2015

UPDATE: Added further panel images from Famitsu! Includes more character artwork from Tekken 7 including a live art demonstration by Jbstyle.

Just to get this out of the way - there wasn't much substantial news in terms of Tekken 7 revealed at San Diego Comic-Con. What was shown however is something you might appreciate should you be a fan of the artwork that comes from special guest artist collaborations with the Tekken series. The Bandai Namco Fighting game panel at San Diego Comic-Con has Tekken Project team figures like Harada and Michael Murray on it but this time there's also guest artist jbstyle participating who you may know as the artist who designed the Devil Asuka and Lili / Eliza T-shirts given out to players at EVO 2014 & 2015. Artwork of the Tekken 7 characters done by Jbstyle, Shunya Yamashita, Tomio Fujisawa and Junny were shown off so I'm assuming this is hinting at the return of the character artwork switching in Tekken 7 that was available in Tekken Tag Tournament 2. All the images from this year's panel are courtesy of @cool_trainer.

Soul Calibur Character Popularity Poll Results

Remember that Soul Calibur character popularity poll a bit back on the official Facebook page? Voting period recently ended and we now have the full results of which character from the series is the most popular among voters. Talim, a fighter which was not included in Soul Calibur 5 was interestingly enough voted on top of the rest of the characters in the series. The full results are up and you can see it on the Facebook page. It said that these results will help make the future of the series 'bright and hopeful' but whether the poll amounts to anything significant is yet to be seen. Slightly off-topic but, E3 is a mere few days away so maybe we might see something there?
