« Japanese Tekken team gains additional sponsors »

The Japanese team Yamasa has added four more sponsors to its list of supporters.

The team, consisting of Daichi "Nobi" Nakayama, Kato "Yuu" Yuji and Takehiko "Take" Aoki, was originally sponsored solely by Yamasa, the company involved with creating pachislot games based on Tekken.

However, according to Avoiding the Puddle, the team has now added Japanese specialty PC company Level ∞; capture and streaming device maker AVerMedia; BenQ monitor brand Zowie; and gaming chair provider AKRacing as additional backers.

It's interesting to note this shows a continued growing interest by otherwise PC-focused companies into the traditionally console-focused fighting game community. Team Yamasa will be competing in Tokyo Tekken Masters, taking place on Sept. 3, 2017, in Tokyo, Japan.
