New Fighters for Pokkén Tournament Revealed

January 23, 2015

A new batch of playable fighters for Bandai Namco's upcoming fighter Pokkén Tournament has been unveiled.

During a Famitsu live broadcast, the studio confirmed that, in addition to Machamp and Lucario, Suicune, Gardevoir, and Pikachu will all be playable in this upcoming Pokémon-filled arcade fighter.

Watch Pikachu and Lucario go head-to-head in the gameplay video below.

Pokkén Tournament will be coming to arcades in Japan later this year. We still don't know when or if the game will be coming to Wii U, but I'm sure it's only a matter of time before we get confirmation on that front.
