The popular fighting game "Tekken 7" has continually added more characters to its gameplay from other games and franchises. It seems just about time for publisher Bandai Namco to add one more name to the list of available fighters in the game. "Final Fantasy XV" fans who have "Tekken 7" will finally be able to play Noctis in the next few days.

The characters added to the game come in the form of downloadable contents (DLCs) as Noctis will be the third DLC for "Tekken 7." Those who get the DLC, as in the previous DLCs, will not only get Noctis himself. Players will also get costume options as well.

The costumes include the regular Casual Outfit, Royal Raiment, Choco-Mog Style, Fighting King's Raiment and Kingly Raiment. Alongside Noctis and his costumes, the DLC will also come with a new stage called Hammerhead. It is a stage featured based on Cid and Cindy's service station. Of course, the setting would not be complete without the two being on the stage as background characters. Other main characters will be featured in the background as well.

Those who want to see how Noctis will fight and his combos in the game can check out the announcement trailer. The trailer featured Noctis using warp strike-enabled teleporting and can even switch swords, per VG247.

The news of Noctis being in the game might not be surprising to those who have been keeping tabs on the game. Noctis was first teased for the game back in November last year. Back then, no release date was given. At least now fans know it is definitely coming soon.

The DLC will come on Mar. 20, 2018. Unfortunately, no price has been mentioned yet but it should be in line with the previous DLCs. That said, it would cost around $7.99
