An interesting post tweeted by the Twitter user Yellowmotion revealed an alleged announcement from a Bandai Namco representative about the unveiling of the Xbox One and PC versions of "Tekken 7" during the MCM London Comic Con event. The validity of the information relayed by the Twitter user is not yet confirmed, more so the possible connection of Yellowmotion with the Bandai Namco insiders.

It was first rumored that the console version of "Tekken 7" will only be exclusive for PlayStation 4. However, it has been reported that the game is still possible to be ported from other home console devices and platforms such as Xbox One and Nintendo's new console, Nintendo NX, that is according to "Tekken" brand and community advisor Mark Julio.

"Tekken 7" was first released in Japan as an arcade video game in 2015. Bandai Namco has yet to release the latest "Tekken" installment worldwide for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC platforms. However, the unveiling of the "Tekken 7" console video game may finally happen at the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) 2016, where Bandai Namco is expected to be one of the participants.

There has been no confirmation from Bandai Namco regarding the list of their upcoming video games to be showcased at E3 in June. However, the fans are already speculating that the game studio will include "Tekken 7" to the list of games that will be unveiled during the event. It has been reported that Bandai Namco is planning to release the console version of the latest "Tekken" video game at E3 2016 as that will be the best venue to introduce such a huge game title to the public.
