Tekken x Street Fighter to be 1v1?


Mano-y-mano.

Street Fighter x Tekken (SFxT) will make its way to stores on March 6, 2012 for Xbox 360 and PS3. While the hype for that game grows stronger each day, one game that's waiting in the wings is Tekken x Street Fighter (TxSF).

This will be Namco Bandai's turn to show what they have to offer for the Capcom crossover. With the news surrounding SFxT, many fans assumed that TxSF would also be a tag team affair.

That, however, may not be the case according to the game's producer, Katsuhiro Harada (via Twitter):
GreatKungLao: "What you thinking about fighting system for TxSF? Is it going to be tag-team only, like SFxTK?"
Harada: "Considering 1 vs. 1."
With Tekken Tag Tournament 2 (TTT2) slated for release later this year, it may not come as too big a surprise that Harada would make TxSF 1v1.

TTT2 hit Japanese Arcades on Sept. 14, 2011.
