Another year, another impressive achievement coming from Tekken 7, as the latest instalment in the legendary 3D fighting game series has passed 9 million total sales since its launch all the way back in 2015. This news was announced by game director and notorious hater of requests Harada on Twitter.
This announcement comes with some shiny new art celebrating the milestone as is tradition with the series, as well as a thank you to the fans who’ve supported the game over the years. This comes only a few days following the announcement of a new Tekken World Tour tournament series for 2022, which will see the game’s best players battle it out all over the world.
The ongoing growth of Tekken 7 is wild when you consider this game first landed in a limited capacity in arcades seven years ago, continuing its upward path as newer titles in the same genre have continued to come out. It was only last year in 2021, that Tekken 7 celebrated 7 million sales, proving the fighter’s momentum isn’t due to slow any time soon.
