Tekken X Street Fighter Hasn't Been Started Yet

With Capcom's SFxT coming sometime early next year, and a ton of footage being shown, gamers are anticipated more news on Namco's TxSF. Well we have some good news and some bad news. Check it out.

Tekken X Street Fighter is still on the back burner for now, while Capcom hammers away on developing Street Fighter X Tekken. "Tekken X Street Fighter, we really haven't started on that yet," Harada told Eurogamer.

Tekken X Street Fighter is slated in pencil for 2012. That was the Bad News.

The Good News is that they are working on Tekken: Blood Vengeance, a feature-length CG movie based upon the cinematic intros of Tekken 5 and 6. It has been in development since January 2010 and is scheduled to release this summer.

Harada stated that the movie doesn't have anything to do with that awful Live Action Film: "That doesn't have anything to do with it this time. We're not trying to rewrite those wrongs. Fans are always asking us for a 3D movie. This is our response to them... We want to make a movie that everyone can enjoy, though. Not just Tekken fans."

The movie is to be presented in full stereoscopic 3D and will tell a story that runs parallel with the events of Tekken 5 and 6. Check out this trailer for the upcoming CG movie.

Good thing I don't care about Tekken games! JAJA! No but really, they have a lot on their hand with Tag2 and they have been saying TkxSf would most likely be in 2012 for a while.

True but in competition with Street Fighter x Tekken, they are falling behind. SFxT is scheduled to release before April 2012, and with Namco not even starting on theirs then I doubt we will see a 2012 release.

Yea that is pretty bad, and the SF community is immense. It's even worse for kof13, not too long ago they said something about waiting on release because they didn't wanna compete with AE....well damn it better come WAY Before SfxTekken or we will never see that game.

Tekken vs would have to compete with all the other fighters inculding Street Fighter vs. The 3d gc movie sounds pretty good though. I won't pick up the Tekken version anyway, and Tekken Tag 2 would just overload the Tekken fans. For once I think waiting to put the game out is the smart choice.
