Pokkén Tournament Localisation Being Considered

Pokkén Tournament Localisation Being Considered on Nintendo gaming news, videos and discussion

Tekken director Katsuhiro Harada recently took to Twitter to answer questions on Pokkén Tournament.

The new fighting game featuring Pokémon was made official earlier this week, a 3D brawler that's being crafted by the folk who work on the Tekken and Soul Calibur franchises - Bandai Namco. The Pokémon Company confirmed the game for arcades in Japan, but there haven't yet been any Western announcements yet.

When asked about a release outside Japan, Harada replied that the studio is "considering now."

Given the sheer popularity of both Tekken and Pokémon, it's more than likely that the game will sail across to the West at some-point.

When asked about whether the game will be a one-on-one or tag-based fighter, he replied that "it's a secret" and that the studio will "have some new ideas."

Are you eager to see a localised version of Pokkén Tournament?

This does look pretty awesome, and a western release is welcome, but damn it all if Nam-dai's Project Soul doesn't give us that Legend of Zelda fighting game we've been waiting over a decade for. Smilie
