3/30 Tekken Talk with Markman, Dalton Link, Bronson & 725

Tekken Talk came back and with it, a new look at the latest build of console Tekken 7 on the PS4 Pro. For this episode, Markman is joined with the Bandai Namco community lead Dalton Link (who is probably the guy reading all your character requests on twitter), NorCal player Bronson Tran and 725 from Qanba. Most notably shown off in this Tekken 7 build was Kuma / Panda & Eddy Gordo as well as a batch of new stages in the game. The stage select screen showed multiple stages but only 4 were shown off and they were the Geometric Plane, Kinder Gyn, Infinite Azure & the Arena. The Tekken Talk episode was streamed live on Twitch but you can now watch the Twitch archive if you happened to miss it. Check out these nice combos bros.

Tekken 7 Returns to Evolution This Year on the Main Stage

Tekken 7 is back and on the list of games in the Evo 2017 roster MrWizard announced during the Evo reveal stream. Tekken 7 made appearances during Evo during the last 2 years across both the vanilla and FR updated arcade version but this year will mark the 1st Evo where the console version will be out beforehand. They're also happy to announce that while Tekken 7 is back at EVO, it will for this year be featured on main stage and get a Sunday finals alongside Street Fighter V and both Super Smash Bros games. This will perhaps be the place to highlight the best of what Tekken 7 has to offer to the world on the big stage and you can expect the competition to be fierce for everyone participating. Evo 2017 will not be an event to miss out this year so start making your plans to attend. Evo 2017 is taking place in Las Vegas on July 14th to the 16th later this year.
