Tristan and Oliver slick back their hair and put on their hat made of loose Jenga pieces, as they lock in to beat the following three bits out of Bandai Namco’s seventh (main) instalment of the iconic fighting game Tekken:
Judging By Looks - Discussing the diverse character roster compared to other fighting games and how the game builds character depth with mystery.
A Fighting Chance- Rage arts, power crushing, and other ways Tekken 7 is designed to be beginner-friendly.
Adopt & Adapt - Depth & discovery through play, and how the game encourages experimentation in playstyle.
