Tekken 7 Version 1.13 Update Improves Online Matchmaking After the Noctis Update

Tekken 7 on PS4/XB1 & PC have just received a new small patch to alleviate matchmaking issues after Noctis' Version 1.12 update that introduced them. Since the online would frequently stop trying to search for matches after a certain point, the temporary fix of closing the game and stopping the game's process in Task Manager seems to no longer be needed. Hopefully the online matchmaking should be a lot more functional for those after the patch. The matchmaking online fix update is now live on Steam and PSN.

Tekken 7 Online Status Update for Matchmaking Issues after Version 1.12

After almost a week and a half since the Noctis update to Tekken 7 came out, the Tekken team finally acknowledges the broken online matchmaking from the update. Version 1.12 which was said to bring online adjustments on top of the DLC guest character inclusion had in effect caused waiting times in Tekken 7 to take far longer or worse, resulted in players not being able to find any matches at all. The tip to get around that which was being passed around was to reset the search by turning off the game and killing the game process in task manager before hopping back in again. The status update on these issues mention that they plan to change the online servers settings for Tekken 7 on PS4. They're still investigating issues with the Steam version of the game but also mention that they're planning a patch to hopefully solve these issues. You can find the status update tweets over on the Tekken Project account.
