It’s a chore, but pretty much expected for most fighting game these days.Įven with all that, I can’t remember the last time I had so much fun improving in a game bit by bit. In order to really improve, you have to look up combos and character data online. This game doesn’t necessarily need features like that, but they go a long way in teaching new players the basics of the core game, as well as how to use certain characters.Įven without these resources, the game gives you enough to learn a character’s signature combos and moves.

I didn’t really play ‘Tekken’ prior to getting ‘Tekken 7,’ but I was always aware of it.
