Virtualand Singapore Getting Tekken 7 in September

The FaceBook page for Virtualand Singapore just posted a teaser saying that they're set to receive Tekken 7 in their arcades in September this year. I'm not sure if this will be a location test or a full release of the game in the South East Asian region yet but it's good to finally see Tekken 7 being more available then just Korea / Japan. There's not much else said about the news since it's just being teased but should you be in the area, this might be worth looking forward to.
