Tekken x Street Fighter nog steeds in ontwikkeling

Volgens Katsuhiro Harada, verantwoordelijk voor de Tekken-games, is Tekken x Street Fighter nog steeds in ontwikkeling. Een van de redenen dat het de laatste tijd stil is rond de game, is de release van Street Fighter x Tekken.

Harada legt de situatie aan Siliconera uit: “We will say first off that the game is still in development, so you don’t need to worry about that. There are several reasons why we haven’t released any updates. One of the reasons is, Street Fighter X Tekken was released. That still had updates until recently. One interesting thing we’ve seen with that title when it came out was that it’s not quite what we expected.

“It was not just Tekken fans and Street Fighter fans merging, there seems to be a whole new community growing around that title that wasn’t playing either of the titles up until that point.

“That was very unexpected, but quite cool. It’s something we want to take care and grow. Rather than throw out our title right away while those people are still interested in [SFxT] we are looking for the right time because we are still developing [TxSF].”

Harada vertelde verder dat de game meer op Tekken zal lijken en dat het team aardig op weg is om de speelbare personages samen te stellen, maar die blijven voorlopig nog geheim.

Tekken x Street Fighter was aangekondigd op Comic-Con in 2010, maar een releasedatum is nog steeds onbekend.
