Since the announcement of Tekken 7, fans have been constantly speculating about the roster. As we’re getting closer to the release date (early 2017), there’s a few familiar faces that are still yet to be announced, one being Lei Wulong. Lei is a classic character from the Tekken franchise who has been included in every installment since Tekken 2. His unique moveset and comedic nature is one of the many reasons fans love him, so it’s understandable that members of the community are eager for him to return.

Still no official confirmation of Lei’s being included in the game, but here we see that Harada is acknowledging fan’s requests by stating that he will share the opinions with his team.
In response to Harada’s comments, one fan asked the community to favorite and retweet the tweet so the team can see how in-demand Lei is.

However, fans were quick in their response, stating that character polls suggested otherwise:
Tekken 7’s roster is already a generous size, however we have been told more characters will be announced. How do you feel about the current discussions regarding Lei Wulong?
