Tekken originally released in arcades way back in 1994. The series has come a long way since then, spawning 18 games, a comic, and three movies. Tekken’s main titles have supported each subsequent release in the arcades with ports to Playstation. Namco, coming to be Namco Bandai since those days, has come to form a strong bond between the Playstation and the Tekken series continuing with their latest release, Tekken Revolution, which is an exclusive title for the PS3. The best part? It’s free to play, so hop on the Playstation Store and get your copy.
Bandai Namco has now officially announced that Tekken Revolution, the first free-to-play game from the franchise, will be taken down on March 21
Played a couple matches, it was fun. Realised I needed to wait for a countdown to play more matches, deleted from my system.
Bandai Namco Games has announced a new collaboration between Ace Combat Infinity and Tekken Revolution which starts today at 5pm and ends on November 4th around 7pm. During this limited period unique airframes and emblems will be added as drop items in the game.
Dear Bandai Namco Please release a real ace combat game for next gen systems.Thank you
Bandai Namco's free-to-play fighter celebrates 3.5 million downloads on PS3 with reduced prices and a lowered grind.
Thats very good. But where is the Vita version? They said if the PS3 version did well that a port would be made to the Vita. 3.5 mil seems more than good if you ask me.
I know what i'm abou to say is pretty blasphemous but here goes.....
I wish more fighters, like SF, had a F2P version like Tekken has revolution. It would be a really good way to introduce casuals to each of these games and if each F2P fighter had a small well rounded roster it'd go a long way to help teaching match ups, punishers, combos etc.
From my perspective I never played a fighting game up until Tekken Revolution, because it was free, and thanks to the small roster at launch and invincible moves I was able to stick with and learn how to use king. I also learned how to punish kazuya players and especially lars players. It's actually got to the point where I instinctively punish kazuyas 1,2,4,3 move with Kings kick counter xD.
Thanks to a F2P Tekken game introducing me to the series snd being easily accessible but keeping the core of what is tekken I was able to transition into TTT2 fairly easily.
If a game like SF had a F2P variant with a focus on a small roster that include the core of the series, with some of the newer harder to master characters being added over time, then I believe it would go long way towards making fighters alot more popular.
Isn't that a low amount of downloads for a free game in an 80 million user base?
I haven't even touched this yet, it's sitting on my hard drive.
It's worth you time if you don't own a TEKKEN game already or want to try and get a pay/play to win advantage by building up your characters stats, otherwise it's a waste of space even being on your HDD.
It's F2P. Free is definitely worth at least checking out. But from what I've heard if you're an experience Tekken fan then you're better off sticking with either 6 or Tag 2.
If you have TTT2, then stick with it
This is actually my 1st Tekken game since Tekken 4, this game is a must for those who are new to tekken... This is actually the easiest Tekken too as it wasn't that hard to get into.
