A sizable update to Namco Bandai's free-to-play PlayStation 3-exclusive fighter Tekken Revolution hits Europe on Wednesday, July 24 and North America by the "end of the month," so says the patch's massive breakdown on the game's official site.
After the update, players will be able to customize their characters with new costumes and "Premium Effects," though how either of these new features fit into the game's monetization model remains to be seen. Hwoarang and Dragunov will both be added as playable characters, bringing with them an increased level cap, new top rank and various gameplay balance changes.
New modes are also being added, including a Practice mode that doesn't require in-game currency, as well as two new difficulty levels for Arcade mode. Players will also have the ability to reassign their Character Enhancement Points, which up until now had been permanent modifications. Everyone gets one free do-over with their points, but further resets have to be purchased.
Bandai Namco has now officially announced that Tekken Revolution, the first free-to-play game from the franchise, will be taken down on March 21
Played a couple matches, it was fun. Realised I needed to wait for a countdown to play more matches, deleted from my system.
Bandai Namco Games has announced a new collaboration between Ace Combat Infinity and Tekken Revolution which starts today at 5pm and ends on November 4th around 7pm. During this limited period unique airframes and emblems will be added as drop items in the game.
Dear Bandai Namco Please release a real ace combat game for next gen systems.Thank you
Bandai Namco's free-to-play fighter celebrates 3.5 million downloads on PS3 with reduced prices and a lowered grind.
Thats very good. But where is the Vita version? They said if the PS3 version did well that a port would be made to the Vita. 3.5 mil seems more than good if you ask me.
I know what i'm abou to say is pretty blasphemous but here goes.....
I wish more fighters, like SF, had a F2P version like Tekken has revolution. It would be a really good way to introduce casuals to each of these games and if each F2P fighter had a small well rounded roster it'd go a long way to help teaching match ups, punishers, combos etc.
From my perspective I never played a fighting game up until Tekken Revolution, because it was free, and thanks to the small roster at launch and invincible moves I was able to stick with and learn how to use king. I also learned how to punish kazuya players and especially lars players. It's actually got to the point where I instinctively punish kazuyas 1,2,4,3 move with Kings kick counter xD.
Thanks to a F2P Tekken game introducing me to the series snd being easily accessible but keeping the core of what is tekken I was able to transition into TTT2 fairly easily.
If a game like SF had a F2P variant with a focus on a small roster that include the core of the series, with some of the newer harder to master characters being added over time, then I believe it would go long way towards making fighters alot more popular.
Isn't that a low amount of downloads for a free game in an 80 million user base?
I love all the new content but Im ecstactic about the 5x gift points event, finally I can start unlocking more characters since they take forever with the average amount of gift points
Cool
Havent owned a Tekken game since Tekken 2, played a bit of Tag, but this game has gotten me hooked on it. Will most likely purchase Tekken Tag Tournament 2 soon. I need to play Bruce.
I'll redownload again after they added the Young gothic lolita vampire gurl.
Hopefully there won't be as much spammers now that they can practice.Are the character unlocks still random? I'm at 24k and still can't get Steve.
