First Tekken Anime Series Announced, Coming To Netflix This Year
gamespot.comNetflix has announced its latest video game adaption, and it's a new Tekken show. Tekken: Bloodline is a new anime based on the classic fighting game series, and it's coming to the streaming platform this year.
The new show is focused on Jin Kazama and his journey to get revenge after a «monstrous evil» entered the world and shook his life up. Check out the teaser trailer below to get a closer look at the new series.
