Tekken Revolution (Free to Play)

It's practically like Tekken Tag 2 except no tag and only solo. Arcade mode is "offline" - in the sense that its not PvP. and with stats uploaded to unlock features but yeah, no practice mode offline. I think also you need to be "online" in the literal sense in order play. Tokens are free and self-replenish over time although you can purchase them as well. Right now you should also be getting some bonus stuff like additional credits for signing up first day.

Think of it as a digital online arcade machine.
I think that's what they're going at with here which maybe pretty intersting (with other games too) if it catches on...
 
This game is SUPER SCRUBBY. You have launch punishable invincibility attacks that counter string characters (which I like), but at the same time it messes with frame disadvantage (which I dont like). This game is basically special versus where you dump stats into characters to make them stronger which is extremely dumb. You can only play for a limited time if you are bad and keep losing, but I don't care too much on that since I am getting win streaks. Also, you have to unlock characters by grinding so I am forced to play Lars over Jin. There are no 1P or 2P costumes from what I can tell, there is also no practice mode, and no offline vs. This game is extremely scrub friendly and made for casual gamers. Don't take this game seriously because it is basically scrub tactics to win.
 
Current theory I've been seeing around the internet is this was released as a kind of beta for some new mechanics they're thinking of using for Tekken x Street Fighter. Bounds being removed was a surprise to me. the Special Arts super armor is pretty nice. Not exactly sure what is special about the Critical Arts yet though. I've only done arcade mode and 3 online matches so far. Anyways, yeah...this game is just stupid fun. No real point in putting time into really learning it seeing as tournaments of any kind are pretty much impossible with no offline versus and the currency thing.
 
I agree for the most part with Wolf here.. The game overall can be fun, but no bounds and limited characters are pretty much negatives for me.. I don't like the special invincibility moves much either.. But with all that said, it's an appropriate F2P game for people on the fence about Tekken in general..
