SINGAPORE, November
9th 2016 – Leading
video game developer and publisher, BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment Asia, today
announced that TEKKEN 7: The King of the Iron Fist Tournament 2016 for
Southeast Asia has concluded. We congratulate Muhammad Adriyansyah Jusuf (MEAT)

will also be part of the team to represent Southeast Asia at the upcoming King
of Iron Fist tournament in Japan on 10th December 2016.

“We are really proud of the Tekken fans
in Southeast Asia. Their passion towards the game continues to show how popular
Tekken is in this region. It is regretful that we could not bring the
qualifiers to Thailand this year, we promise it will be bigger and more
exciting for Thai fans in 2017. The next console release of Tekken 7 will
definitely continue to bring excitement to the fans and we hope to further grow
the Tekken brand in Southeast Asia.” – Rainel Tan, General Manager (Southeast
Asia). 

Due to the passing of
His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej on 13th October 2016, the Thailand
qualifiers will be postponed until 2017. However, fans will still be able to
pit their skills on Tekken 7 at Thailand Game Show Big Festival 2016 happening
on 9th to 11th December for causals. More information will be
announced at a later date.
