T7 Online Ranked Matches - Japan's Highest Ranked Lee Player VS Knee & Ji3MoonAce

If you have ever been following the Japanese Tekken scene for the past few games, the name Hari (はりー) might be familiar. He's a notable Lee player who is at this point in time, currently Japan's highest ranked Lee player in arcades. He was also a really high ranker back in Tekken 6 and Tekken Tag 2 arcades so he knows his way around using Lee. Recently, Hari has been recording his matches online in Tekken 7 and uploaded footage of him deathmatching Korean players; Knee and Ji3MoonAce. These matches make for a good watch despite the online Japan to Korea connection so take note if you're interested in playing Lee. His matches with Knee & Ji3MoonAce can be found below but, you can find even more of his online adventures over on this Youtube channel:

PS4/XB1 Tekken 7 Version 1.04 Update Restores Black Colors in Customization

If you're reading this, then go and update Tekken 7 on your PS4 or XB1; Version 1.04 update is now live for you to download. The main fix included in this update was bringing back the dark and black colors in the game's customization mode after it was taken away in Ver. 1.03 due to a specific Dragunov's costume which could be painted all black. There's no other changes listed in the update notes nor any official notes anywhere so this 740 mb update presumably is for reverting the colors back. If you play on PC, then all the previous console updates are being rolled into a single patch at the end of this month.
