What’s worse than a woman with a pet tiger? A woman with a pet tiger who also happens to be the wife of Heihachi Mishima and has devil powers like her son Kazuya.
Kazumi Mishima has been announced as the next character in the 7th installment of the hit (no pun intended) franchise. She will also be the game’s final boss. In a video posted by ‘tekken channel‘, you can see her and her tiger in action. Not only does she have a lot of hard-hitting moves herself, but she can also summon her tiger to jump in and cause some damage.
If that wasn’t enough, after you win the first round of her boss fight, she will transform into her devil form, ready for more. A video posted by ‘Wikia TekkenpediaFr‘ shows gameplay from the arcade version, which is already out in Japan.
Supposedly Kazumi will also be a playable character for gamers, but as of now it’s unsure if we will be able to utilize her second form. Kazumi Mishima joins a fantastic cast of both veteran and new characters for Tekken 7, which will all be on display and playable at the Evolution Championship Series (EVO2015).
Here’s the current roster of characters:
- Alisa
- Asuka
