Tekken 7 soundtrack artwork says Tekken 7: Fated Retribution hits arcades in July

The Tekken 7 soundtrack is due to come out on May 21, but the Tweets we’ve been seeing lately show that some have already received it early. The biggest news, though, is that according to verbiage included in the packaging, Tekken 7: Fated Retribution is due to hit arcades in July. Someone posted a picture of it on Twitter. Take a look.

Twitter does it’s best to translate Japanese, saying “I’m a running 7/2016 7 FR!” Whatever that means. But our friend Flying Wonkey gave it a bit more clarity:

The TEKKEN 7 Soundtrack specifically mentions that Fated Retribution will come out to arcades in July. https://t.co/dNQfMQXbDy

This is great news because it  means the console release won’t be much further behind.

Also, Sweep Records recently published an Xfade Demo of the new soundtrack on their SoundCloud. It’s 11-minutes long. Take a listen.

How do you like what you’ve heard, and how does it compare to previous Tekken soundtracks? Let us know your thoughts in the comments!

Zee the CEO

Aziz Peregrino-Brimah aka Zee the CEO | Founder / Editor-in-chief of TekkenGamer | Gaming has been a passion of Zee's since the early days of Atari and ColecoVision. His first experience with Tekken was in the early 90's, and it was Tekken 3 that sealed the deal. True story... As a teenager Zee once received his Winn-Dixie paycheck and spent it all at the arcade the same day. Needless to say, his mother wasn't pleased.
