World Tekken Federation Free on Launch of TTT2

World Tekken Federation Free on Launch of TTT2

Will not require further purchase

Written by punkyliar on 04 September 12 at 01:33

Three weeks ago we covered the announcement of a new online service, World Tekken Federation, for use with Tekken Tag Tournament 2. The service will offer stat tracking, forums, facilities for forming clans and detailed histories for every fighter in the game. The price of this service was unknown at the time of the announcement and we promised that we would bring you more news if we heard any changes.

Namco Bandai has now announced that the service will be absolutely free. Namco's Vice President of Marketing, Carlson Choi, had this to say:

With TEKKEN TAG TOURNAMENT 2, the team is committed to providing an unparalleled fighting game experience and are proving our dedication to this effort by offering World Tekken Federation free of charge to everyone who buys a copy of the game. Bringing together TEKKEN fans from around the globe in such a robust online community is a first for the fighting game genre and will give veterans and beginners a chance to develop their fighting skills in an exciting new way.World Tekken Federation will be available coinciding with the launch of Tekken tag Tournament 2 on September 11th in North America and September 14th in Europe.

Namco is really providing their fans with a great game & services to go along with it. Other game companies take note.

Seriously is there anything else they can give us for free? Free characters,free stages,free costumes,even online pass might be free but I'm not sure, free tekken hub. This will be fighting game of the century. With huge roster, all those game modes, improved online,customisation. I'm suprised TTT2 is on one disc with all that content. Learn Capcom, learn. BTW I've read that DOA5 will have DLC after release but paid, hmm that doesn't look good for team ninja considering how much free stuff TTT2 will have.

About TTT2 'free online' pass, look at first picture.

And about DOA5 DLC.

Im not a fighting game player,I do however think some of them are the best games visually and creativly. Just wanted to say that. Back on topic, this is how gamemakers should treat their customers and support their games. Im sure this will build a stronger community and help fuel sales of the game.
Way to go Namco Bandai.

The access to WTF is free "to anyone who purchases a copy", right?

Let's take a second and consider the worst:
What if by "buy a copy" they really meant "buy a new copy" but stay vague on purpose ?
What if, in the end, it's another bloody elite pass ?

It's too vague and I've heard way too much PR bullshit no to take this with a large pinch of salt, I'll go ask my local game shop clerk his opinion when the game retails, or if any of my friends gets the game on launch.

It doesn't say you need exactly new copy, maybe it can be used. As long as you have the game you can use WTF service. Besides what would be the point of using WTF without having the game and you don't have to use it. Hell I will from day one.
