Captain Falcon would be an awesome Tekken 8 character
Many Nintendo fans only know Captain Falcon as aSmash Broscharacter (despite his racing origins), and his melee-based fighting style seems well suited to a traditional fighting game. It stands to reason that his moves fromSuper Smash Bros.,translate perfectly intoTekken 7!The Captain FalconTekken 7mod by JSRRemix and Mr. Fletch completely rework Noctis and impressively “shows his moves” like the powerful Falcon Punch and explosive Falcon Dive.
The mod has been blowing up since content creatorUMINuploaded an impressive reel of Captain Falcon’s attacks and model onTwitterSaturday with almost one million views. In the past, they’ve debuted trailer-like videos for mods based onOverwatch 2‘s Kiriko,Final Fantasy VII‘sCloud Strife,Soul Calibur‘s Ivy, and Hatsune Miku.
An impressive Captain Falcon Tekken 7 mod
Captain Falcon fits right intoTekken 7.In this Showcase video, he demonstrates the ability to juggle his opponents in the air with his precise kicks. He can also do a flip kick that looks impressive inTekken 7.The Falcon Kick does seem busted as it’s so fast, but Noctis’ abilities with his sword are also astronomically quick.
Captain Falcon’s Up-B inSmash, the Falcon Dive, is used as a flashy conclusion to an air combo. Not many characters inTekken 7have this set up in the air, so it’s a neat change to the flow.
What does the mod do?
With the TKDataPatcher mod tool, you’re able to add him to the game by using Noctis as the base character. You’ll have to go to the Character Customize menu to get Captain Falcon ready.
Then, you’re able to alter the shading of the hero; you can go with a darker, shadowy look to the racer. There’s also a brighter toon shader option that fits hisSmash Bros.look. Either way, you can’t go wrong. UMIN has provided a download link to the mod featuredin their videodescription. There’s also a tutorialyou can follow hereto install TKDataPatcher.
Keep in mind that UMIN claims in the comments of the video that the mod is currently unfinished, but you can play the custom character right now.
