Good news for Tekken fans as Evo 2014 will have Tekken Tag Tournament 2 after all!
VG24/7 reported that Evo 2014 will include Tekken Tag Tournament 2, according to Evo co-founder Joey "Mr. Wizard" Cuellar during a iPlayWinner's The Fray Twitch stream. Developer Bandai Namco Games will also be the fighting tournament's primary sponsor.
While this is great news for Tekken fans, the following will probably be something Tekken fans will be sad about.
Namco Bandai "Tekken X Street Fighter" has been delayed. In what should have been a 2014 release has been pushed back indefinitely and "Tekken" creator, Katsuhiro Harada has pointed out some reasons why on his official facebook page.
It has been reported by VG24/7 that Tekken X Street Fighter is on the release schedule of Namco Bandai Games this 2014 but according to Katsuhiro Harada, that is not the case.
According to his posts on Twitter, Katsuhiro Harada claimed that Tekken X Street Fighter is not like SNK where their crossover games with Capcom are release within two years of other and that Tekken X Street Fighter will undergo a name change and it will need more "blank".

What is this "blank?" Katsuhiro Harada says it is what it is, "Blank". This could suggest that they are still figuring out the stuff going into the game so a 2014 is not going to work.
Blank is blank. I don't say that "mean". RT @Behemothbear Need more "blank"? Sorry, I don't understand. — Harada_TEKKEN (@Harada_TEKKEN) March 11, 2014
Katsuhiro Harada also said that there will be no Tekken related games to come out this 2014.
Probably I'll announce New 2 or 3 titles in this year. But it's not TEKKEN. TEKKEN announcement = secret now… https://t.co/6ECIXnZrYJ
