The asking price for Tekken 7's Legendary Edition was only roughly $35 USD, which isn't bad at all, but still, this release left the community a bit puzzled. Armor King, Anna Williams, Marduk, Julia, Lei, Zafina, Ganryu, and Kunimitsu are all a part of this edition, but noticeably absent are the game's newcomers and all third party guest characters (aside from Street Fighter's Akuma who is a part of the base roster).īandai Namco was careful in noting that this wasn't necessarily a "complete edition," but it still felt weird as buyers would be getting some content from every season pass, not all of it, and would have to go in and individually purchase anything they were missing. This package, which is only available in the EU region, brought about a new release of the game with fresh box art that came packed with the base game and some of the DLC characters, not all of them.Įssentially, those who snatched up the Legendary Edition would be getting 36 launch characters and 8 previously released DLC characters who hailed from past Tekken games. interesting choices on this front.Ĭonfusion from fans started out when the company revealed the Tekken 7 Legendary Edition late last month. The Tekken 7 Originals Edition and Definitive Edition seem to be the game's "complete" editions, with the latter being the real complete version of the game.
This is a way to entice fans who may have waited to pick up the game into joining the fight with a great deal, and I generally always see these editions as a bit of a last hurrah and opportunity for game developers to not only get a bit more money out of their product, but to also make things easier and get the entirety of a title wrapped up neatly in one package. These commonly come in the form of "Game of the Year" editions for major games, and in the fighting game space they usually have a new version name added to the title so consumers know that this is the big, definitive release.Ĭomplete editions notably include the base game and usually all of the main DLC that was purchasable during the content support lifespan, and these final packages typically come in at a lower price point than it would have cost to buy everything individually when it originally saw its release. Modern titles that see continued support for a window of time after their official release sometimes see a final version of the game released after all downloadable content has finished being launched and fully run its course.
Now, before we get into the specifics of Tekken 7's Originals and Definitive Editions, let's talk about how and why a video game's complete edition is typically released.
