A serious flaw fighting games can have now days is in online gameplay. Most fighting games are all about special moves, counters, and combos, none of which can be successfully pulled off without reflexes, and correct button timing. It’s awesome to be able to fight your friends or strangers online, but if gameplay isn’t up to par, it just ruins the entire experience. But fear not, we have updates! YES! Tekken fans rejoice! A free update to enhance online gameplay is scheduled to be released on Turkey Day, November 26th.

The following enhancements will be made to online battles:

• Improved input response: improvement of the game’s responsiveness to button / command inputs;
• Selectable search priorities for ranked matches: players will be able to set search priorities for opponents in ranked matches based on comparable rank or connection quality as well as location;
• Optimized data transmission between fighters and spectators: fight data will be optimized in order to reduce the bandwidth load on the host’s console;
• Signal strength bars: the signal strength bar will reflect connection quality more accurately;
• Chance to cancel match: players will be able to cancel the match before it begins once the opponent’s signal strength has been displayed on ranked matches.

This update is not to be confused with the online co-op Scenario Campaign mode, which is scheduled for release separately this winter.
