New Female Character revealed for Tekken 7

Uh... Pretty sure all of Tekken's fighting styles have ALWAYS been real. What, did you play Tekken 3 once and think "FUCK EDDIE GORDO!" ? (Btw, that's Capoeira, and it's a real fighting style.)

Where can i learn the real martial arts of teleportation and fireballs? :D

They seems so focus with the arcade. Makes me think consoles won't get this till late 2016. Ugh. Just another T6 wait. Which is to say, not a bad thing with balancing.





I certainly hope not. Tekken 7 for home imo will be long overdue in Late 2015, let alone Late 2016. To me a long wait is generally always a bad thing, especially when the game will be basically completed in the arcade. Just balance it through patches if necessary. I think we will see it at home in late 2015 or early 2016.

I don't like the design personally but will have to wait till I see gameplay to make final impressions.

They have always focused on arcade like this. It will not be another T6 wait.

Cute.

Although Tekken has always had imaginary styles, Tekken 6 was the first new entry where the imaginary styles outweighed real ones for new characters. Hopefully Tekken 7 gets them back on track in regards to this.
 
Whoa, wasn't expecting to see a new character revealed at TGS!

Well, she's certainly very pretty. I can't say that I'm a huge fan of her design from just a glance, but I'm sure she'll be a great character overall. And Savate, huh? Sounds cool. I've never seen that martial art in a fighting game before.

Definitely looking forward to seeing how she plays. Just 12 more days until the location test!
 
I couldn't give a damn about her design, just so long as her and the other new characters aren't as utterly bland as the characters introduced in Tekken 6 were.

That's Christie...down to the foot kicks BEGINNER FRIENDLY from south america and everything...

Christie isn't beginner friendly. At all. Chreddy is tough to play, it's only been lately they've gotten an ez mode tool in b+1,4, and even then, they aren't Lars.
 
How are they bland, I'm interested.

Well, seeing as you asked...

The ridiculous costume of Lars is balanced by his ridiculously boring nature (he's literally Jin, but less likeable.)

Then there is Leo, who's just effeminate, and that's the only aspect about him that they bothered about.

Miguel is Spanish, and that's all there is to know about him. No, you shan't have a personality that's even slightly fleshed out.

Bob is portrayed negatively for being fat (in spite of what the game tries to do), and has no personality other than being fat.

Alisa can take off her head and is sort of sugoi. And that's it, really.

The two bosses aren't fun or challenging, they're just annoying (although Azazel's design is actually half decent).

To me, the only good new character was Zafina. Each to their own, though. That's just what I think, anyway.

The sketches look way better than the model. Get with it, modelers!

A lot of people enjoy button mashing with those two because it gets them results against other beginners.

Revealed on the madcatz TGS stream.

  • Named 'Catalina'
  • Playable at the upcoming October location tests.
  • From Central/South America
  • 'Beginner friendly' character.
  • Sassy mouthed talker, will be vocal in-game.
  • Fighting style is Savate.
Somehow I just know that by that term they're including Mexico in "Central America" (which geographically Mexico is part of North America) so I'm obligated to say: guys if you want to refer to everything in the continent south of the U.S. in one simple term to just say "Latin America" cause it's both simpler and correct. Unless it's been confirmed she's definitely not Mexican then yes the term central/South America was used correctly. Sorry about this but I felt the need to correct it.

Can't wait to know more about her!
