I have a feeling they will be semi-clones like Anna, Armor King, Jun, and Kunimitsu. I could see preorder DLC being Lei Wulong and Eliza, who may or may not make it into the arcade version. I also have a feeling a new character, a Capo, Kuma, Miguel, Mokujin, and J.C will be revealed before too long.
New
8. Ganryu Replacement (Chanmi Chan)
9. New Capo (likely male)
10. Julia Replacement (younger female family member)
11. Baek Do San Replacement (could be male or female)
āA roster of more than 30 charactersā is why. The 5-7 characters to be revealed in the coming months are guaranteed to release in arcades. Beyond that they will seek longevity and easy money. http://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/tekken-7
Tekken works because the donāt really do dlc that way they donāt have to worry about rebalancing the game to fit those characters and they wonāt second guess the overall balance as well while doing that.
A lot of fighting games and other games have the issue of putting out new content and canāt help but fiddle with the system overall.
One of the reason why tekken is one of my favorite franchises is because once the game is fully released on consoles they keep it as it is like 99% of the time so that the community can grow more organically.
Tekken is the prime example of how a FG should b made. TTT2 had a shit load of content all free I might add and hopefully T7 will b the same, canāt wait
Aside from patched infinites (Ancient Ogre and Alisa), there is still a Bob tag infinite (almost Steve 5.0 bad), and a number of death combos. Hitboxes and hurtboxes are very inconsistent for characters like Leo, Feng, Eddy, Christie, Tiger, Ling, and Lei. Also, Dr. Boskonovitch is total garbage with Alex/Roger, Zafina, and Raven not far behind.
Heās pretty much confirmed for the home console versions (PC included) but not for Arcade at the moment, at least according to what Flying_Wonkey said.
A lot of that crap is situational (or practically, all of it is), and characters having very strange hurtbox properties is nothing new (however, itās actually with the bears that itās an issue, none of those who you listed are problematic).
Only thing anyone can agree on is that Dr. B is indeed quite crap (fun to use, but crap), with (True) Ogre barely better than him.
