Come February 28 two DLC characters will be released for Tekken 7. They are Negan from The Walking Dead franchise and Julia, a returning favorite from multiple earlier entries in the Tekken franchise.
We have the first screenshots and trailer for these two characters. They are considered "DLC 8" and "DLC 9" and are a part of the Tekken 7 Season Pass 2. They will also naturally be available to purchase individually.
One of these two characters is a bit out of left field, so let's maybe start by talking about Julia.
Julia Chang
Country: USA
Fighting Style: Xin Yi Liu He Quan and Baji Quan
After retiring as the masked fighter Jaycee, Julia concentrated fully on expanding her reforestation efforts around the globe, far from the fighting scene. But her project quickly needed money. Finding it difficult to secure backers, Julia was forced to return to the fight far sooner than she had wanted. Seeking one final fight, she made it her mission to beat Kazuya Mishima. Doing so, she theorised, would gain the global attention, and subsequent funding, that her project required.
Negan
Country: USA
Fighting Style: N/A
The Walking Dead’s Negan, the charismatic leader of the Saviors, brought other communities together under his thumb with the motto “people are a resource.†One day, Negan received reports that an unknown group had taken out several of his men. Per his standard policy, he enacted a plan to capture and make an example of them. The survivors fell into Negan's carefully laid trap, but, just as he was choosing his victim to serve as an example, the group put up an intense fight and escaped. Negan worried they would disturb his new world order if he did not deal with them swiftly. Taking his barbed-wire bat Lucille - named after his beloved wife - into his hand, he set out to take care of these foolish ingrates who would challenge his authority.
