Bandai Namco Studios is adding some interesting new features to Tekken 7 to help players improve. According to the Tekken team’s Mark Julio, frame data will be made available in Practice Mode, allowing players to properly work on their timing. Season 3 Pass owners will get it for free but it will cost $4 for everyone else.
Practice Mode is also seeing some revamps with punishment practice where the game will recommend moves that you can practice against and sample combos that have been updated based on each launcher. My Replay and Tips have also been added, which will look at replays and give advice on punishing. It’s pretty useful for knowing which specific moves could have been punished and where you properly punished.
The Season 3 Pass is currently available and includes three new playable characters, including Zafina. The frame data DLC should arrive sometime in Winter along with the revamped Practice Mode. All in all, not bad time to get into Tekken 7 if you’ve never tried it before. Check out our official review of the game here.
