« Bandai Namco updating Tekken 7 with Season 2 DLC, adds new gameplay, Anna Williams, Lei Wulong and Negan from The Walking Dead »

While it seems that rumors of a second season of downloadable content for Tekken 7 were true, Bandai Namco still managed to throw players a curve ball with the announcement.

After Tekken 7's finals during Evo 2018, the company revealed that the game will be getting a second season of content along with a game-system overhaul that will include new Rage Drives and wall bounce moves. There will also be six new characters, including returning fighters Anna Williams and Lei Wulong.

However, the most surprising announcement was that a third new fighter will be the villain Negan from The Walking Dead. A maniac with a baseball bat wrapped in barbed wire, Negan seems an odd choice and it will be interesting to see how Bandai Namco fits him into the world of Tekken.

The identities of the other three characters, or other details on Season 2 or its Season Pass, are not available at this time. Readers can check out the first Season 2 trailer below.
