Tekken-net October Campaign - New Customizations Added to the Store

Tekken-net is having its October Campaign and for this occasion, new and old customizations items in Tekken 7 Fated Retribution are up for grabs for people to unlock & buy in the in-game Fight Shop. Most of the older items are premium customization items that were only earnable back in previous Tekken 7 vanilla campaign / events but they're back for this month for players that missed out. The new batch of custom items include more additions to certain characters wardrobe as well some items from the YAMASA collaboration which is the company that makes TEKKEN related Pachislot machines. If you have ever seen players at events rocking the frog related wear, they're with Yamasa. Full details on the October campaign are up on Tekken-Official for those in Japan.

Akuma Currently Has the Largest Pool of Higher Ranked Players in Japan

Tekken 7 Fated Retribution has now been out for roughly 2 months and the data on how well certain players and their characters are piling in on Tekken-net to review. The most interesting piece of info I'm taking away from is the amount of high ranked Japanese players for each character. This I feel gives a good idea on not only who is succeeding well in Tekken, but which character as well. If you're not aware, Tekken 7 uses a ranking system that goes from Beginners into the Dans and from there it goes into a series of ranks organised by their color scheme. It's not a 1:1 representation but I would say, a player that got to the red ranks (Genbu, Byakko, Seiryu & Suzaku) in Tekken 7 is roughly the equivalent of a Street Fighter player getting something like Platinum rank in SFV. With all that said, here is all the data I compiled from Tekken-net.

TEKKEN-NET Carry Over Data from Tekken 7 to Fated Retribution

Alongside the June 15 Press conference news, Tekken Official published a final complete list of all carry over data from Tekken 7 in arcades to the Fated Retribution update. Ranks are not getting completely reset but rather, you'll start off with a lower rank in Fated Retribution when it goes live next month. The most notable of news to come from this is that Treasure box and item development have been removed and that a new fight money shop is being implemented into Tekken-net. This news may not be much for those waiting out on console version but for those playing on the arcade version, I translated the list of carry over information below.
