During a New Years live stream, Bandai Namco Tekken 7 CEO Katsuhiro Harada shared how he may have been working on the Japanese company’s “most expensive development project”. ever.
Harada himself cannot even believe that the highly educated people within the company gave the green light. Here’s the translation, courtesy of Gematsu:
Well, to be honest, I think this may be the most expensive development project in Bandai Namco’s history. I think it’s incredible that the higher-ups approved of this. Well the approval is over, it’s just that because of the coronavirus we haven’t really been able to get the project off to a good start. “
While a new Tekken game or another fighter would be an obvious bet, the veteran developer mentions that he doesn’t think he’ll ever play any fighting game other than Tekken, noting that he is currently working on games that never fighters to be. .
“I develop different things than fighting games. I don’t think I’ll ever do any fighting game other than Tekken. But I will not say what this project is at this point. “
So, any guesses as to what this project could be? Oh, and if you’re Mr. Harada, we still hope to see a Tekken 7 port for Nintendo Switch.
