Tekken 7 - Nina Ivory Cutter Infinite Combo Discovered

That was pretty fast! YOU from KYSG got access to console Tekken 7 at the Tekken Bar event in Japan and already managed to find an infinite combo with Nina at the wall. This I presume is only on Kuma but might be for other big characters. It should go without saying that it is pretty early with the game still actually not being released yet so expect a patch to fix this in the near future. You can check out the infinite video below then go e-mail Harada.
