TOKYO: ‘Tekken X Street Fighter’ is expected to hit the current gen consoles, Xbox One, PS4 in 3D and rumoured to arrive sometime in 2016. The developers of the game unveiled that games includes comprehensive fighting between Tekken and Street Fighter characters and series.
It’s previously reported that the much awaited crossover fantasy is going to be a reality for the fighting game fans which was first announced in July 2010 and is now confirmed by Bandai Namco to be under way as a 3D fighting game using incredible Tekken’s graphic engine.
In his interview with Polygon, director Katushiro Harada has revealed that ‘Tekken X Street Fighter’ 3D game has got 40 men team on board working hard and directing full attention to the project at this time but that is all he can say for now.
“It’s very difficult to talk about…Obviously, I had originally planned to release it much earlier than we’re currently looking at,” Harada reportedly said. “People have been talking about the game for such a long time that they aren’t going to be surprised if you just release it normally…I don’t know if that’s what we have planned, but we do plan to have some kind of surprise.”
The director also mentioned during his talk with the gaming site that he is indeed developing several other games which was revealed later that one of those titles is the ‘Project Treasure.’
“Now that we’re at the 20th anniversary of Tekken and I’ve been at the company roughly that number of years – and also, I don’t think I’ve said this publicly before, but I recently had a child – that’s kind of changed my perspective on things…I realize that there’s not as much time left as you think when you’re young, so I’m starting to think that I only have maybe another 20 years working here,” Harada quipped.
