The Arcade edition of Bandai Namco's Tekken 7 is currently being tested in Japan and brand spanking new gameplay has begun popping up conveniently. At this point the graphics don't exactly scream next gen but it's still early and besides, that's not what's caught our attention...
At Tokyo Game Show 2014, Bandai Namco revealed the newest addition to the Tekken roster, Latina fighter Katarina. And her style, Savate, is actually a French martial art, designed to allow graceful punching and only foot kicks.

Tekken's long time game director Katsuhiro Harada says Katarina will be "sassy-mouthed" and apparently also "vocal in-game." The Latina chick is also meant be a newb-friendly combatant, and a clear signpost for a return to accessibility after the hardcore-oriented Tekken Tag Team Tournament 2.

Players at the Arcade location test in Japan take control of Katarina as she is pitted against Tekken veterans, Kazuya, Xiaoyu and Dragunov, check out her moves in the video below.
