Oh lord. Platforms (aside from PC) not confirmed? This could get interesting.

Does that dsogaming site never link/cite their sources intentionally or something?

"during an interview with Korean website inven"
Uhm, isn't the game already confirmed for PC?
Taka Kawasaki, head of Epic Studios Japan, confirmed to Korean site kdramastars that not only was a PC version happening, it would be the "leading one" thanks to the Unreal Engine 4.

So it shouldn't be a problem to link the thing at least right?
Dude, kdramastars.
LOL, Jun Kazama will be returning? I'm a huge Tekken fan and I haven't heard anything of the sort. She wasn't even hinted at in the trailer. The source seems unreliable.
Kdramastars makes stuff up.
But going back to the article. South Korea loves Tekken, but most people in that country play their games on PC. Sure they go to the arcade to enjoy the games, but I'm sure Namco Bandai realizes that they could probably make better money releasing this game on PC. Especially in other countries around the world where PC gaming is dominant because of ridiculous price hikes on consoles and their games.
NEVER trust kdramastars - renowned for making up complete nonsense for kicks. Also never trust any site that decides to use kdramastars as a source for their news. If you were to believe kdramastars, HL3 is already out, FFXV and Kingdom Hearts are already confirmed and dated for PC etc etc.
Bullshit.
On topic - Tekken 7 is using UE4, it shouldn't be hard to put it on a lot of platforms. Pretty sure we will see it on PC, pretty sure I'll buy it on PC should it do so.

Hi, I'm not sure If you noticed but I was the guy who translated the thing
I just like playing coy since I notice sites tend to use my source and run a bit of a more clickbait title like this one. Makes things a little more worrisome if my translations turn out incorrect!

Every fighting game port gets locked to 60 so the frame data is the same. I've always wondered how a traditional fighter would play at 120fps.

Not a traditional fighter, but Smash Bros Brawl can apparently play at 120fps on Dolphin.
Well, if they develop the key-frames with 120fps in mind to start off with, then they can set a cap for 60fps as tournament standards since the baseline for the game will be consoles.

They´d be dumb if it wouldn´t. The game is built on Unreal 4, so it must be incredibly easy to port it.

And Tekken 6 too!

I still haven't kept up with this game, I think it's because I'm still waiting for Tekken X Street Fighter. ╮(╯▽╰╭
But good news for PC players!

With PC architecture being at the core of these ports, there is not real excuse not to have a PC port unless you just dont think its worth it at all.
Not as long as MS is around, its impossible.
People should remember why these games are getting PC ports to begin with. Its not because PC is just so awesome to these developers. Its because its super easy cause they have to make the games on PC now anyway, considering all the platforms share the same DNA and PC architecture. Its basically no effort to port.
On the other hand, they would have to actually put in effort to go back and reverse engineer their previous engine to work for PC, which is why they abandoned it to start. You wont see any of the previous games on PC.

Imagine 1 frame links when frame data is based around 120fps :s bad enough at 60.

Explain Enslaved and Naruto Storm 3 then. They were both last gen games recently ported to PC, by Namco.
EDIT: Add Dark Souls PTD in there too.
Also that Ace Combat game.

Yeah, I think a PC version is almost a lock-in.

I consider it a lock, great thing too! They'd basically just be leaving money on the table
Plus Bandai Namco has just been loving the PC lately

This would be awesome, but...
Tekken 7 looks like Tekken 6/TTT2 with TR additions.
This would probably be the first major PC fighter I'd skip. With the exception of a small dedicated fanbase, nobody wants to play a game with stupidly hard to learn movement and just frames.
