Hello TEKKEN fans! MarkMan here! I'm the Brand and Community Advisor for TEKKEN and long time TEKKEN fan! With June 2nd around the corner everyone is excited for the launch of T7 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Steam (PC)! We've been touring TEKKEN 7 for quite some time now, giving fans within the FGC (fighting game community) a chance to play & compete within the game since it was first made playable in Japanese arcades. 

While everyone is anticipating the Summer of competition with the TEKKEN World Tour, Evo 2017 and countless other tournaments -- we still have some awesome events right around the launch of the event!

COMBO BREAKER 2017

Combo Breaker 2017 takes place just outside of Chicago in St. Charles, Illinois from May 26 - 28 and will feature world class TEKKEN competition just a week prior to the console launch! Looking at last year's Combo Breaker and TEKKEN TOUR recap, you can see that the Mid-West came to fight and this year's event will be ever more fierce.

For more information on the event, please visit the official website. I'll be there with many other members of the TEKKEN community to enjoy a fun weekend filled with TEKKEN 7 action. Can't make it out to Combo Breaker 2017? Don't fret! You can always catch all the action on Twitch when it goes live. Pay attention to the event schedule here.

Wizard World Gaming events played host to a big portion of last year's TEKKEN TOUR and really proved to be a training grounds for North American TEKKEN players as they prepared for their continued battle against the well practiced warriors from Japan, Korea and beyond.
