It was already announced that Miguel Caballer Rojo is going to be included on the ported console version of Bandai Namco's "Tekken 7." But fans want more playable characters to join the roster. It is speculated that Anna Williams and Julia Chang, among others, will also be included when the game gets released in 2017. However, Lei Wulong has been confirmed to be not included.

Miguel was the most recent character announced by the studio. The hot-blooded Spanish Miguel was introduced in 'Tekken 6," and he will be joining the next game to carry on his revenge upon Jin Kazama. Kazama was the one who ordered the air strike that killed Miguel's sister on her wedding day, Forbes reported.

It is important to know that Miguel is already included in the "Fated Retribution" expansion pack for the arcade version. This is also the reason why fans are excited to have the game on their game consoles.

Several other characters are rumored to be included on the ported version, such as Zafina and Roger Jr. While Katsuhiro Harada, the game producer, has already confirmed on that Wulong will not be able to make it.

Harada posted on Twitter, "He has a chance of course. But his usage rate was too low. Our effort wasn't."

"Tekken 7" is already confirmed to include a total of 33 playable characters, 20 of which will be included when the game rolls out, while the remaining fighters will be added over time. There will be eight characters that are new to the game, namely Katarina Alves, Claudio Serafino, Lucky Chloe, Shaheen, Josie Rizal, Gigas, Kazuma Mishima, and Master Raven. Additionally, Akuma, from Capcom's "Street Fighter" game series, will be a guest character, as well as a new form of Jack, Jack-7.

Meanwhile, PC fans are still hoping that their game version will be included in the cross-platform gameplay feature. Harada mentioned earlier that there is a big security risk when PCs are involved. Once the development team has found a secure way, they will open up the feature immediately, Avoiding The Puddle reported previously.

"Tekken 7" is expected to be available for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Windows PC in the first half of 2017.
