Murray is known to be working alongside Katsuhiro Harada of Tekken, thus this might point out to Tekken 7's release next week. There is no official announcement about it yet.
The Taipei Game Show 2017 will be held this weekend and it will showcase various games while revealing helpful information about the possible title releases for the year. Bandai Namco will be joining the event as an exhibitor. Tekken Game Director Katsuhiro Harada did not confirm through his Twitter account about his appearance on the event however, Bandai Namco may still push through the discussion about the release date of Tekken 7.
So far, early 2017 is the only confirmed schedule regarding the release of Tekken 7. The tweets that were posted by Murray may give clarifications for those Tekken fans who are persistently waiting for the title's release on consoles. Tekken 7 is only presently available on arcade cabinets that can be found in leading local arcades that are outside of Korea and Japan, according to The BitBag.
The release date announcement for Tekken 7 will indeed brighten those competitive and casual fans of the famous series. Meanwhile, the Rage Art move has been added in order to extend the Tekken Rage system. It was explained that players are given the freedom to spend their whole rage state in order to unleash a super move that deals massive damage to opponents. However, they will lose their rage state if they will miss their Rage Art.
