As is the way with any new fighting game, Tekken 7 is going to have an influx of players who aren’t as well versed in 3D fighters, yet have previous experiences playing other 2D games like Street Fighter or Guilty Gear. To help ease players in and help port their fundamental FG knowledge from 2D to 3D, Irish Tekken player CKT|Fergus has written this helpful primer to guide players into the world of Tekken.

After deciphering some Tekken jargon concerning input notation and specific technical terms–for example, that start-up frames are called impact frames–Fergus provides small guides to the majority of the Tekken 7 cast, covering their pros, cons, and difficulty to pick up.

If you are like me and last played a 3D fighter during the days of Soul Calibur V, the document is excellent for showing which characters I should potentially play when Tekken 7 drops, based on my preference of play style. Fergus does intent to update the primer with characters like Miguel and Lee once the community knows their changes from Tekken Tag Tournament 2.

A guide to help people coming from other FGs to pick a character in T7 that fits their playstyle

Hope it helps https://t.co/RgZikiMZcU

At this weekend’s PlayStation Experience, Sony will be hosting a special meet-and-greet and autograph session with several video game personalities; this will be the first time ever such a session will be held at PSX.

With Street Fighter V and Capcom Cup being a part of PlayStation Experience, it should come as no surprise then that Capcom’s Yoshinori Ono will be a part of this meet-and-greet and autograph session. In addition to Ono however, the finalists of Capcom Cup will also be a part of this event.

Being able to openly approach and interact with top players as peers is a hallmark of the fighting game community. That said, this offers fans from outside the community who may not exactly be familiar with our culture and conventions an opportunity to meet some of our best players.

The meet-and-greet and autograph session with creators at PlayStation Experience will take place on December 3, Saturday from 12:00 PM to 5:00 PM. Yoshinori Ono and the Capcom Cup finalists’ timeslot will be from 4:00 PM to 5:00 PM.
