Anna Williams, the younger sister of Nina Williams, is an assassin trained martial artist. On her return to the "Tekken" series, she will feature more moves to her arsenal, and her Rage Art relies on using weapons and firearms.
Lei Wulong, on the other hand, is a law-abiding and talented policeman. When using him, the player has to make excellent and creative use of his stances to throw off and confuse the opponents.
As for Negan, he is the charismatic and power-hungry leader of a survivor group known as the Saviors in "The Walking Dead." He always brings with him Lucille, a baseball bat wrapped in barbed wire.
Anna Williams, Lei Wulong and Negan will join previously announced characters such as Alisa Bosconovitch, Asuka Kazama, Bob Richards, Bryan Fury, Devil Jin, Feng Wei, Heihachi Mishima, Lars Alexandersson, Hwoarang, Jin Kazama, Kazuya Mishima, Lili De Rochefort, Marshall Law, Nina Williams, Sergei Dragunov, Steve Fox , Yoshimitsu, and Miguel Caballero Rojo.
"Tekken 7" was received well by the public upon its release in Japan last July 2016 due to its enhanced gameplay and graphics. Many also praised its essential expanded content that includes new stages, costumes, items, and characters.
"'Tekken 7' remains an addicting technical fighter that constantly beckons you for just one more round," reviewer Paulmichael Contreras said about "Tekken 7." "There are so many moves for each character, mastering even one complete move set will take nothing less than complete dedication. ... those who prefer "Tekken's" brand of fighting than those of Capcom's or NetherRealm's will be in for a treat," he added.
For the time being, there is no release date yet for "Tekken 7" season 2, but it will be available on all three platforms: Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and Microsoft Windows.
