There you will also be able to create new Avatars, communicate with chat and emotes, configure matchmaking and enjoy the experience of customization and game modes in the Battle Area, Customization Shop, Tekken Dojo and Beach Area areas. The lounge will also host Tekken Ball, the beloved mini game that made its first appearance in Tekken 3. Epic battles await you on a beach volleyball court. The trial period will only offer access to the Battle Area and Customization Shop.
