Additionally, the following player information will no longer be displayed before a match: character selected, wins, rank, and title. You can also now toggle voice chat on or off.

For those that don't know: Tekken 7 recently released earlier this month on PS4, Xbox One, and PC: coming in as the 9th installment of the series. The game notably arrived on the scene back in March 2015 in Japan via an arcade release, before an updated arcade version, dubbed Tekken 7: Fated Retribution, was released in July 2016. Then Bandai Namco announced the game was releasing worldwide on PS4, Xbox One, and PC on June 2, 2017. Tekken 7 also serves as the last chapter of Mishima clan saga.
Tekken 7 is available for $59.99 USD. You can check out review of it here. In other recent and related news, the game topped both last week's Japanese retail sales' chart and European retail sales' chart.
