Tekken 7 Adds Kuma and Panda to the Roster

Just today, there has been quite an exciting announcement shaking up the Tekken 7 community. There will be two furry additions to the roster, both quite familiar: Kuma and Panda.

Bandai Namco had this to say:

"As Heihachi Mishimas pet, Kuma joins his master into the Tekken Force. He proves his unfailing loyalty by trying to protect the Mishima Zaibatsu while he was believing his master was dead. Defeated by Jin Kazama, he finally found Heihachi again and became one of the most essential member of the Tekken Force.

Panda is Ling Xiaoyus pet and bodyguard. After the disappearance of Jin Kazama, Xiaoyu set out to find him, totally ignoring the dangers it involved. Worrying for his master as she never returned from her journey, Panda ran after her to bring her to her senses."

Furthermore, there is a new Online Tournament Mode as well.

"The new Online Tournament Mode will allow players to participate and create their own online tournaments they will enjoy with 7 other participants. Among the many features implemented in this new mode, players will find single and double elimination options, secured entrance for tournament with passwords as well as a Spectator Mode. As the outcome of the tournament, contestants will win in-game content such as fight money and various items."

Tekken 7 will launch in early 2017 for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. In the meantime, check out the introduction video for our two lovely bears.

Not sure why the salt exists within the comments, though. Makes no sense whatsoever.
