In the new installment of the "Tekken" franchise, there will be no cross platform play, according to Bandai Namco producer and game director Katsuhiro Harada. PC gamers will be unable to play against console users such Xbox or PS4.

The reason of eliminating the cross platform play is because PC gamers have reputation of cheating especially among game console players, according to PC Gamer.

Another reason was security risk as cross platform play open the door for potential mods and hacks to spread across platforms.
