Which game engine powers Tekken 7?

Tekken 7 is powered by Unreal Engine 4. Bandai Namco chose Epic Games’ engine to help develop the fighting game for multiple platforms, including arcade hardware, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Windows.

The move was significant because earlier mainline Tekken games generally relied on technology developed more closely around their target hardware. Unreal Engine 4 supported Tekken 7’s detailed character models, cinematic story sequences, and simultaneous development for consoles and PC. Tekken 7 was also the first Tekken game released for PC.

The answer is not Unreal Engine 5, which powers the later Tekken 8. MT Framework is associated with several Capcom titles, while Unity is a widely used general-purpose engine but was not the engine credited for Tekken 7. The game first reached Japanese and Korean arcades in 2015 before its home release in 2017.
