Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
84 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Yet I was able to enjoy story mode, for its popcorn-esc story and it's fun base Tekken gameplay.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
44 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Super fun and satisfying, easiest fighting game to get into by far, the combo assist and the mini story mode make it way more beginner friendly than past games and there's actually a solid amount of offline content if online isn't your thing.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
34 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The gameplay feels smoother, the Heat system adds a new layer of aggression without completely losing the depth the series is known for, and the visuals are some of the best I've seen in the genre.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
27 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The roster is strong, matches are exciting, and learning new characters feels more rewarding than ever.
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
15 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
There's quite a lot of offline content to keep a player busy if multiplayer isn't your thing.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
14 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
But look, the roster is great, the mechanics feel fine and it's an absolute good time whether you're playing solo or with friends.
