Tekken 7 has done quite well for itself according to director and chief producer Katsuhiro Harada. When asked how much the title has sold on consoles, Harada revealed on Twitter that since its launch back in June and running through until September, the sequel has shifted over two million copies. That's not bad at all.
We gave Tekken 7 a strong 8/10 in our review, and we still reckon that it's easily one of the best fighting games on PS4. However, we will say that in this age of service-based titles, a few more updates here and there wouldn't go unappreciated. We'd love a couple of extra characters outside of the planned season pass content, for example.
Still, a good game selling well is something to be celebrated. Are you a fan of Tekken 7? Punch a hole in the comments section below.

Shame the game itself is a step back for the series imo
Following on from the Micro-transaction discussion - if a game can be considered as doing well with just 2m copies sold, then you would believe that its 'profitable'. Any 'additional' sales then would be just profit and no doubt all the DLC will increase profits without considering any 'Micro-transactions'. Not saying that specifically about Tekken but looking at the games industry as a whole.
I'll buy tekken 7 as soon as they release a team battle mode
Tekken 7 is a great game, but personally I long for the days where you had to play story mode to unlock new characters and stages, rather than having them all unlocked from the start. Unlocking Gon or Doctor B in Tekken 3 was a mark of achievement and kept me playing longer than I would otherwise. As it is, I enjoyed Tekken 7, but have not played it as much as I would if there was a proper progression/rewards system (outfits don't count). tekken isn't alone here of course. It seems all fighters do the same these days for online/esport reasons, but it's a shame

I agree. Not having any major unlockables takes away from what potential single player experience there is to enjoy.
Good for Tekken 7, I haven't played it in awhile buts it's a good fighting game to come back to. I think Capcom is aiming for those numbers for MVC Infinite. Something tells me that might not happen unfortunately.
Still havent bought it. Waiting for Southtown's ghost to appear.
I loved it but gotta admit, after I got the Platinum trophy I haven't touched it since.... Nothing on Tekken there's just to many games to play between the PS4 and Switch (first world problems 😋)
