Good news to all "Tekken" fans, Bandai Namco Entertainment has revealed the beginning of the story mode, where it shows two of the most exemplary fighters solving their symbolic problems.

During a stage event at PAX West in Seattle, Bandai Namco had a demo of the upcoming console version and the very beginning of Akuma's story mode was live streamed during the event, DualShockers reported. In the video, initial part on the history of Akuma was revealed. Also, fighters of the classic "Tekken" series like Jin and Kazuya will be included in this new chapter.

"Tekken 7" will breakthrough to different consoles, including Xbox One, to provide the next installment of the most admired game in the market. It is worth noting that in the past, Bandai Namco presented the official console version of "Tekken 7".

In some scenes of the video, the cinematic was epic with Akuma having some beef with Heihachi. Akuma can do Haduoken which then transforms into the actual fight that gamer can control and fighter can talk trash as well, Attack of the fan boy reported.

Preceding "Tekken 7", Akuma was also a playable character in the spin off game, "Street Fighter X Tekken" acting as the final boss in the story mode if the player's lead character was from the "Tekken" series. In the "Tekken 7" storyline, Akuma helped Kazumi to slay her spouse and her own son due to the fate of causing widespread chaos and death.

In one of the early trailers for "Tekken 7", Akuma was first introduced as silhouette that Kazumi speaks to before his full revelation. Akuma acts as Fated Retribution's secret final boss replacing Kazumi once in a while in the in-game.

Akuma, a major antagonist and enemy of Ryu is a character from the Street Fighter series. Best known for his strength in the storyline and in the gameplay, Akuma is famed for his trademark "Raging Demon".
