Update: Screenshots of Nina Williams in Tekken 7: Fated Retribution have been added.

Original Story:

Deadly assassin Nina Williams is returning to the King of the Iron Fist tournament once more. The classic character has been announced as the newest addition to Tekken 7's roster through its updated arcade release Fated Retribution. 

To see Nina Williams in action in Tekken 7, you can check out her reveal trailer below.

The news comes in celebration of the announcement that Tekken 7: Fated Retribution is going to be featured at this year's Evo after Tekken 7 was featured last year. The annual fighting game tournament always draws massive crowds and viewership across the globe as the world's best converge to compete for the title of their respective games. Rounding out the Evo lineup is Street Fighter V, Guilty Gear Xrd - Revelator, Mortal Kombat X, Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3, Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, Super Smash Bros. Melee, Pokkén Tournament, and Killer Instinct. Evo 2016 starts on July 15 and runs through July 17 in Las Vegas.

The arcade version of Tekken 7 released last year in Japan. A console version is currently scheduled to release sometime in 2016.

 

Our Take
It's great to see a mainstay character return to the series after being left out in the initial Japanese arcade run.
