It has been rumored for a while that the upcoming "Tekken 7: Fated Retribution" will not be an exclusive game to Sony's video game console. Fans have kept their fingers cross that, hopefully, the day will come when every fan on every platform will have a great fighting day.
It seems that the gaming gods are listening to their request as an insider has said that the game will be available for the Xbox One. Furthermore, a product placeholder was uncovered on an online store.
WCCFTech earlier reported that a representative of Bandai Namco, the game developer and publisher, mentioned at the MCM ComicCon in London that the game will not be a PlayStation 4 exclusive anymore. A Twitter user named J.Va related the information through a post, which said, "Namco rep just said Xbone and PC versions of Tekken 7 are also happening. @TronKnotts @destructoid."
