Tekken 7 FR Arcade Online Update 'Version D' Balance Changelist

Tekken 7 Fated Retribution is once again getting a big update tomorrow bringing T7FR up to version D09 alongside adding the new character Master Raven to the arcade title. Another wave of balance changes are included this time and they've now been published on Tekken-Official to be reviewed. Interesting thing they here is that they now list the notations and exact frame and damage value changed in the patch notes so that helps in keeping track of all the changes. It's a big change list so there's a lot to look through and review. Should be noted that although these may give us the idea on the changes made to the game, it's still best to review the changes as they are in-game. I'm now done doing most of the translation below but here's the source if you want to check it out:

TEKKEN 7 Famitsu Site Opens - Story Background for New Characters Revealed

Famitsu has opened a dedicated page for their coverage of TEKKEN 7 during TGS 2016 and they have the story background for the new characters in the game. It details the basic overall lore for the characters and gives you an idea why they've entered the King of Iron Fist Tournament 7. Gonna add a quick note that usually when you read character background lore they have a flavorful style of text to them but I'm going to unofficially translate these bios until they are released officially in English. You can read the source of the backgrounds in Japanese over on Famitsu Tekken 7 page.

T7FR - Updated List of Moves that Beat Akuma's Fireballs

UPDATE (August 9): List of Bob's moves have now been added!

You may remember a bit back that a list of all the moves that would avoid (override / go under or through etc) Akuma's fireballs in Tekken 7 Fated Retribution was posted up online but that was from an earlier build of the game. Tekken-Official website today posted an updated version of the list and what's included now is a section of moves that some Tekken characters can do that will neutralize the fireball on collision with the Tekken move. The best example off the top of my head to indicate this is if you were to watch the extended E3 2016 trailer for Tekken 7 and seeing Kazuya's EWGF on Akuma's fireball. The list is up now on the site here but I translated the list and highlighter what's new below.

TEKKEN-NET Carry Over Data from Tekken 7 to Fated Retribution

Alongside the June 15 Press conference news, Tekken Official published a final complete list of all carry over data from Tekken 7 in arcades to the Fated Retribution update. Ranks are not getting completely reset but rather, you'll start off with a lower rank in Fated Retribution when it goes live next month. The most notable of news to come from this is that Treasure box and item development have been removed and that a new fight money shop is being implemented into Tekken-net. This news may not be much for those waiting out on console version but for those playing on the arcade version, I translated the list of carry over information below.
