<p>The executive producer of Tekken 7, Katsuhiro Harada, has revealed a new character for his latest fighting game. Catalina was described as a sassy mouthed woman of Latin America descent who will be very vocal in the game. Her fighting style is said to be very different from anything seen in the Tekken franchise so far. Harada also mentioned that she will be a very good character for beginners to use. The announcement was made at the TGS 2014 Tekken discussion which you can watch <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yy56WP1J_bQ">here</a>. The character announcement starts at the 11:47 mark.</p>
<p>Catalina won&#8217;t be the only new character to join Tekken 7. Harada previously released concept art for a new Arab character on Facebook. Catalina will be playable at the Tekken 7 location tests taking place in October. Tekken 7 was announced at EVO 2014 and is said to be the concluding chapter of the Mishima clan saga.</p>
