Forrige måned kunne en representant for Bandai Namco betrygge oss om at fightingspillet Tekken X Street Fighter ikke var nedlagt. Likevel har de fleste av oss skjønt at noe ikke stemmer med spillet som ble annonsert i 2010, for det har vært fryktelig stille rundt tittelen.
I et intervju har spillskaperen selv, Katsuhiro Harada, uttalt seg om saken, og han forklarer at Tekken X Street Fighter er satt på vent:
"When we develop fighting games, we try to keep the core community in mind as well as the wider audience that wants to play these games. But currently the situation is with fighting games, you have Street Fighter V that just released-a lot of people are playing that fervently-and there's a large crowd out there waiting or Tekken 7. We don't want to split these communities, so a good window in which to release Tekken X Street Fighter is something that's become difficult recently. So it's on hold for the moment."
Tekken 7 har fortsatt ingen dato, men det skal ifølge planen slippes i 2016. Når vi kan forvente å se blandingsspillet Tekken X Street Figher er heller uvisst.
Takk, Gamespot.
