It was stated in the conference, and confirmed on twitter.

Wonder how it will work?

Jim with another surprise, Tekken 7 will be coming to PlayStation VR! Imagine that! #PlayStationPGW

Iron Fist me if old.

Tekken 2 on PS1 had an unlockable semi first person, wireframe mode.

Playing Tekken in first person? No thanks.

Otherwise is it just Tekken really close to my face...

My guess is third person.

It doesn't have to be first person.

Numb · Oct 27, 2015

Curious to see how this wll work.
But why tho?

mrqs · Oct 27, 2015

You'll probably be watching the fight.

No one wants to fighjt in first person, don't be that naive.

Pif · Oct 27, 2015

Waifu mode for when you get tired of punching

Trace said:

Maybe a game mode where you interact with your waifus and husbandus.

delSai · Oct 27, 2015

Wha
How

No. Fairly certain it would just make for a more interesting viewing experience.

RelentlessRolento · Oct 27, 2015

Looking away and winning is the best VR trolling.

Rephin · Oct 27, 2015

I can't even imagine this right now.

RS4- · Oct 27, 2015

does it come with the game

Two Words · Oct 27, 2015

Can't wait for first person VR Rolling Death Cradle.

Man · Oct 27, 2015

This will be awesome.

Fushichou187 · Oct 27, 2015

How?! As a FP Fighting game? Of all the genres that could fit in well with VR, fighting games seem the one of the least intuitive. I doubt it'll just be "play the regular game on a screen plastered to your field of view", so I'm really curious to hear more.

papertoonz · Oct 27, 2015

summer lesson with Tekken characters please?

sixteen-bit · Oct 27, 2015

Reminds me of that Tekken setup at Disney World

Ferrio · Oct 27, 2015

I really want VR support on SFV. Atleast for viewing replays or spectating.

Namco seems to be really embracing it atleast.

Imagine how any fighting game looks. Now imagine you are at the front row of a basketball game or some other event in real life. Pretty much just that. Added stereoscopic 3D, head tracking to view the environment etc. Maybe have both players viewing from opposite each or something

mrqs · Oct 27, 2015

Just 'cause it's on VR, it doesn't mean it's in first person.

FSLink · Oct 27, 2015

C'mon Harada...

TEKKEN BALL VR MODE PLEASE

I bet a boxing game with two of those Occulus controllers would be awesome.

DrArchon · Oct 27, 2015

When they said that Tekken team was interested in VR, I though they were gonna plug Summer Lesson.

But then I remembered that this wasn't TGS.

Tekken team is all over that VR.
Don't even know what Capcom are doing for it.

This sounds cool.

moffattron9000 · Oct 27, 2015

Well that's dumb and hilarious.

Ninjatogo · Oct 27, 2015

That would be pretty cool to play this from the perspective of a spectator in the background.

3rd person, like seeing the fight play out in front of you as if you're inside the stage

Tain · Oct 27, 2015

I'm so happy about this. It'll work better than many think, watching life-sized fighters from the side.

Seems to make little difference.

Doesn't really sound like it's worth hearing a headset just for that.

Yeah I can see that. Wonder how awkward it'll make timing of counters or low-blocking with obscured field of view of your opponent. Still, I'm super interested in how developers will try and interpret familiar game genres in VR.

riskVSreward said:

Boxing definitely. It's the super powers, ariels, counters (e.g. those 'snap-your-neck' combos), etc.. that I can't really envision, but that's on me. I'm looking forward to seeing what they bring to the table.

joey_bone_bomb · Oct 27, 2015

Hell yes!
With all the hype surrounding SFV and other fighting games stealing the spotlight from Tekken for a while now it was time for them to introduce a feature that would give TK7 the chance to set itself apart from all the other fighters even in the eyes of the most casual console gamer.
Also, VR Nina!!!

Just hoping this doesn't imply TK7 will be console (or even PS4) exclusive..

You would be viewing in 3D rather than a flat TV screen.You would also be able to turn to look for environment traps and stuff, idk I think it would be better in VR than TV.

Tizoc · Oct 27, 2015

How about a release date first please @_@

Nzyme32 · Oct 27, 2015

I'd beg to differ. Being in that environment is whole lot more engaging than staring at a screen.

Yeah. Even for a game like this it will rule.

M3d10n · Oct 27, 2015

VR doesn't mean FP, people. Actually, there's a lot of potential for non-FP experiences. I was thinking exactly about using VR on a fighting game like SF or Tekken a while ago, by simply placing the player in the ring, like you're controlling two life-sized characters who fight in front of you.

WhateverItTakes · Oct 27, 2015

Anticipating the first evo champ who plays exclusively in VR

Bartholomuse · Oct 27, 2015

This is gonna be mental. I want solid games being built for VR as much as the next guy, but part of getting new tech means you get a crazy experimental period as well. Cant wait to see this.

Curry-Hakase · Oct 27, 2015

Can we get a Summer Lessons crossover where we tutor Kuma?

A VR version of this.

Foggy · Oct 27, 2015

Could be pretty neat, but I doubt people would get a ton of use out of it. Fighting games as we know them just aren't the best fit for VR.

This. I've played skyrim in VR and actually loved playing it third person. Thinking that VR only works first person is a misunderstanding.

How's the feeling of presence when you are in a third-person point of view?

Nocturno999 · Oct 27, 2015

It's like they don't have any idea how or when to release the console version.

We will get the updated arcade version.

Myggen · Oct 27, 2015

First person, baby!

Ravidrath · Oct 27, 2015

I can't imagine this working at all, but I still really want to watch a separate Evo Tekken 7 VR tournament.

I don't even care what they're seeing on their screens, I just want to watch two people flail at the air while commentators try to pretend it's serious.
