Also, Lei has got himself a new face
I’ve been playing fighting games pretty much since they were invented. In that time, I’ve seen literally thousands of character skins come and go; the good, the bad andInjustice 2. But I don’t think I’ve ever seen a look I’ve been so instantly taken with thanthe recently revealed AnnaforTekken 7’sSeason 2.
That crazy-ass dress that looks straight out of a JRPG. The weird symbiote-style stockings, the jaunty hat. It all combines to make the smugger Williams sister look like a million bucks. She’s gonna fight in that shit, too, taking on Nina’s gun-toting “Undercover Bride” getup. There was a time, around 2000, thatKoFwas the king of fighting game fashionistas, butTekkenseem to have stolen that crown with their latest Iron Fist Tournament.
Anna isn’t the only hottie bringing a new look. Veteran character Lei Wu-Long (who bizarrely wasn’t in the game at launch) is also returning, wearing his usual cop ensemble. Although now the kung-fu superstar’s gear is looking lessCity Hunterand moreThe Raid. I guess times have changed – faces too – as Lei’s mug is now a far,farcry from the Jackie Chan-alike we know and love.
You can check out a wealth of excellent screens of the two combatants in the gallery below. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have to start getting that dress sewn together for my cosplay.
