Posibility of DB character being DLC in Tekken 7?

Post by cheddarsword » Thu Jul 13, 2017 12:55 am

Some people seem to think it's possible. After all, the two paid DLC characters coming to the game in the future are officially labeled as guests and the point was made that they wouldn't be existing Tekken characters.

Couple that with the fact that Bandai Namco publishes the DB games and it's certainly a possibility. Something similar has happened before with Lars Alexanderson being playable in Ultimate Ninja Storm 2.

Thoughts?

Also, I would have posted this in the video games section, but I get the feeling that section is dedicated exclusively to games about Dragon Ball only.

EDIT: MY POST COUNT IS EVIL! (this is my 666th post)

I'd be open to it. It certainly beats the idea of having more Street Fighter characters in Tekken anyway. Not that I have a problem with SF, but I don't want it taking over Tekken completely.

Not to be a downer,but your post count says 665 :) oh well,one more post to go :lol:

On the topic,I would absolutely love that.I would love it even more if DB FighterZ had some Tekken characters,especially Jin or Lily(my favourite).That's some very wishful thinking though :roll:

Considering Lars made it into Ultimate Ninja storm 2, I wouldn't think it'd be out of the question. Devil jin would fit quite well. As would Jam from Guilty Gear.

And about the post count. It says that because one of my posts got deleted (i know which one and i'm not bothered by it's deletion). Should read the beastly number now though.

I think we could end up getting Goku in it or even another game. DB is really popular now so it only makes sense to take advantage of that to promote less popular series.

I don't think it's possible for DB characters to be in Tekken 7. Well you know how strong the DB characters are, they can destroy a single planet with a flick of their hands! :twisted:

Lars alone is strong enough to not only leave a massive dent in a several inch thick steel wall, but also knock out the enemy on the other side of it. All with one punch. And he wasn't trying all that hard either.

Bryan caries around an I beam with one hand and tosses it like it's nothing.

Alisa caries chain saws in her arms, her head is a bomb, she can fire her arms at her opponent and she can fly.

Two words: Devil Gene.

I know these are nothing compared to the DB cast's exploits, but a base form Saiyan wouldn't be too out of place. Nor would most of the Z fighters. Piccolo, Tien, Yamcha. I think they would work just fine.

And it's not like Bandai Namco always plays favorites with guests. Lars isn't the main character of Tekken (though he was the lead in T6) and Akuma isn't the main character in Street Fighter. So the chances of Goku laying waste to the entire roster are there, but a balanced choice of Power Buffed Roshi isn't far fetched either... I gotta customize someone to look like Roshi now.

Besides, Goku could always hold back in base form.

I would much rather have Kazuma Kiryu.
