Tekken Tag 2 Added as an official game for Evolution 2014!

by Rip

Just announced on the Fray, MrWizard just confirmed (after beating Markman in a ft1 online) that Tekken Tag Tournament 2 WILL RETURN to Evolution 2014 this year! Markman reached out to Namco Bandai, went to Japan, met up with the team there and helped make this happen. So everyone say thanks to Markman23 on twitter, @Harada_TEKKEN, @mykeryu and everyone else! Additionally, Bandai Namco is an official sponsor of Evo2k14 as well! NOW is your time to show your support for Tekken everyone! If you can by any means get there, please do, and I will SEE YOU THERE! LETS GO!

UPDATE: REGISTRATION IS UP NOW! If you previously registered for Evo, you will need to email mrwizard@shoryuken.com to add Tekken Tag Tournament 2.

Evolution 2013 Game Lineup Announced!

by Rip

MrWizard just announced the Evolution 2013 lineup on WakeupSRK. He said that running six games made Evo2012 run too late last year, so… with that being said, this year there will be 8 games! Thats ridiculous and I love it lol. To try to space it out, they’re moving some of the finals to Saturday so for Sunday Finals there will only be five games. The list of games for Evolution 2013 is as follows:

- Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3
- Super Street Fighter 4: Arcade Edition 2012
- Tekken Tag Tournament 2
- Mortal Kombat 9
- Street Fighter x Tekken v2013 – 1 vs 1 (Wiz has new info on Gems, so no announcement about new rules for it)
- King of Fighters XIII
- Persona 4:Arena
- ??? PLAYERS CHOICE ???

More info on Players Choice and the event itself after the jump:

Namco Supporting Evolution 2011 in Full

by Rip

Yesterday I was on Aris’ AvoidingThePuddle podcast where we discussed Tekken Tag Tournament 2 for a bit. In the second half of the podcast though, MrWizard came on and made some huge announcements regarding Namco’s involvement at Evolution this year. They will be bringing Tekken Tag Tournament 2 cabinets, adding $5000 to the pot for Tekken 6, and have an Evo exclusive reveal for Soul Calibur 5. Members of both the Tekken Tag 2 and Soul Calibur 5 development teams will be on hand as well!
