Tekken 7 Fated Retribution Playable at OzHadou Nationals 14

At Battle Arena Melbourne 8 last night, OzHadou Nationals tournament organiser Youssef got on stage during the finals event for Street Fighter V to announce some big news for the upcoming event in Sydney. TEKKEN 7 Fated Retribution, the upcoming expansion to Tekken 7 arcade that adds more characters and stages will be playable at the event! This will mark Australia's first opportunity to get their hands on the game and try out Akuma in the new game. Additionally for this year, the event will be taking place at the Menzies Hotel which is bigger then previous years. For players in the region, OHN 14 is certainly not an event to miss out on. OzHadou Nationals 14 is scheduled to take place in Sydney, Australia on August 26 - 28. Of course, big thanks goes out to Bandai Namco Australia for making this all possible.

Announced via the Korean Tekken-net website is that Korea will be conducting location tests for Tekken 7 Fated Retribution on February 26 to 28. The announcement is really brief and does not include any other details apart from the date so the remaining part of the announcement post mentions that further information on the upcoming Korean location tests are to come in the near future. Should you happen to be in Korea, this will be the opportunity to get your hands on and try the new update to Tekken 7. For everyone else, hopefully Green Arcade gets their hands on the game and gives us a stream soon.
