Confirmed Barefoot Customizations in Tekken 7 (Home Version)

Tekken 7 is OUT! Well, actually, it isn't officially... but some places, like Peru, have broken street date and not a lot of gamers are streaming Namco-Bandai's latest and greatest KOIFT game online and spoiling things for impatient Tekken fans the world over.

Well, we have to wait a few days more for the release of the PC version, but I think it'll be worth it. I did take a look at some non-spoilery vids, such as the one above. It shows off the currently-available customizations for most (Eliza not included) of the fighters in the game. I say 'currently' because it is quite obvious that many items which exist in the arcade version (and should by all rights be in the home game as well) as as yet missing. These include the swimsuits (including the all-important Tropical Bikini) for both females and males. I assume these items will be added post-launch by a patch, or offered as DLC content; the Season Pass after all mentions 'more additional costumes'.

That aside though, all is not lost. There ARE barefoot customizations for our lovely Tekken babes available in the game out of the box, although not for all of them. So who got left out of the bus and who will be barefootin' it on Tekken 7's launch week?

The Bad News first- Asuka Kazama, Nina Williams, Master Raven, Kazumi Mishima and Ling Xiaoyu (and Leo Kliesen if you still consider the character female) all have NO unique barefoot customization options as of yet. I'm really not sure why that is so- does the Tekken Team draw lotteries to see who can go barefoot or not in every Tekken game? Is there some sort of unwritten law? It can't be by age with Asuka and Ling being grouped with the other ladies... I really can't figure it out.

Anyway, the Good News: Lili Rochefort, Alisa Bosconovitch, Lucky Chloe, Josie Rizal and Katarina Alves each have one barefoot customization option.

Alisa has a barefooted skirt called the 'Peach Beach Skirt'.

Josie Rizal and Lucky Chloe both have P1 Bare Feet customization, allowing them to go shoeless in their default bottoms.

Sassy Katarina has a full-body customization called 'No Summer Dress', which refers to her Summer Dress oufit. Equipping No Summer Dress leaves Kat in just a fancy two-piece swimsuit and her sexy, lethal bare feet.

Finally, Lili has her uber-sexy 'High Class Bikini Skirt', a lower body customization which pretty much goes perfectly with any top. This pretty much shoots up her hotness waaay over Asuka (who is just a frumpy hag compared to her hahaha). Can you say upskirts every time she moves? LOL

So out of the box, about half of the female cast can go barefoot- half can't. That should be remedied by the addition of the Tropical Bikini costume, which we may have to wait for a bit. But thankfully, even this early I can easily say that at least Tekken 7 is miles away a much better game for footfans than Tekken Tag 2 was, and thanks to the sexier outfits, a notch above our longtime favorite, Tekken 6.

Man, I can't wait for June 2! Have you preordered your Tekken 7 yet?

Tekken's Barefoot Knockouts on DeviantArt

The lovely (and limber) Capoeirista Christie Monteiro joins VS on DA!

 In case you haven't already checked out my recently-opened DeviantArt page, VirtualSoles, perhaps you can spare a moment or two to go there. It's my new diversion these days, which admittedly is taking a bit of time away from both this blog and my Youtube channel- but I guarantee you the sexy XPS pose artworks starring the barefoot babes of Tekken and other games is worth it. Have to say, all the frustration I had with the disappointing lack of barefoot customization in Tekken Tag 2 has been alleviated by the awesome fun and enjoyment I've been having with XPS and XNALara. I've pretty much been able to pose and compose hotter KO's and sole views than any of the Tekken games (or any fighting game or videogame yet seen for that matter) have ever given us.

That's not to say I'm not waiting impatiently for the next big fighting games, mind you... but playing with the character models in XPS is an awesome way to pass the time, and I get to compose some pretty cool scenes, whether you're into barefoot babes or not (I think). So check out the page- so far in terms of Tekken, I've got Lili Rochefort (both Tekken 6 and Tekken Tag 2 barefoot models), Asuka Kazama, Kunimitsu, Ling Xiaoyu, Leo Kliesen and most recently, Christie Monteiro to play with, and I'm hoping to find more in the days and weeks ahead. Also, I'll be posting stuff with other game babes, notably the ladies of DOA5 and some cool surprises. See you on DA!

Ling Xiaoyu Bikini Mod (Streetfighter X Tekken PC)

Barefoot, bikini Xiaoyu: So cute, it hurts!

I have to admit, I'm not a big fan of Tekken's kung-fu kitten, Ling Xiaoyu. When she first appeared in Tekken 3, she was a bit young for my tastes, and her fighting style wasn't to my speed. Tekken 6 nicely gave us a slightly older Ling, and the barefoot customization finally made me take notice of her charms. Still, I preferred my Asuka and Lili. That all said, I really am finding her amazingly adorable in Streetfighter X Tekken (PC), thanks to the latest sexy barefoot mod produced for her- no less than a skimpy bikini! The original mod was apparently made by modder Moedjoer, though I myself had to make a couple of tweaks using SFIV Explorer to remove some tacky bits (the bikini mod was made from one of Ling's existing alternate costumes). And well, as you can see in the pic above- Bikini Ling is a wonderful sight to see.



Tekken's Good Girls take on the SF Assassins... whose soles will prove the stronger?

Gamers not liking the usual big (read: HUGE) feet in SFxTK will like this mod, since Ling has small, cute feet to kick iwth, similar to Lili Rochefort's bikini mod (in fact, I think they may share feet assets). Because of her petite size and slim build, I think the small feet really suit her (even if I do indeed prefer the feet to be a bit bigger). This kinda makes it a bit of a rule that Tekken Girls have small feet, while all the SF Girls have larger peds (or do they?). In any case, I really like Ling in this mod, and I think any footfan will too. Imagine those cute little feet in your hands, spreading her toes wide for you, clean fleshy soles just begging to be kissed and massaged.



Tekken's Barefoot Cuties take on Capcom's Hottest Girl Duo...

Anyway, those cute soles aren't just for ogling- they're for kicking... and that's what Ling does in the vids I've included in this article. Ling isn't the most aggressive or deadly of fighters, but when she pulls off a win, it's quite cool. So check out the vids! I've got another hothotHOT mod lined up, so stay tuned!

Ling Xiaoyu: Barefoot Magical Maid (Tekken 6)

I've posted (and will post) a lot from Tekken 6, but sadly I haven't really done many videos for kung-fu cutie, Ling Xiaoyu. It just doesn't help that she's really not my type of character in terms of gameplay style- she's very evasive and tricky, and her moves are really hard to master (for me). Well, she's still adorably cute, with lovely petite feet that look so soft and kissable even though she can pummel pretty much anyone into submission with them. Anyway, not enough barefoot Ling is criminal, so here's a little dose of her, care of this KO vid. Ling is wearing a combination of her maid and magical girl customization pieces, resulting in a fetching 'Magical Maid' look. Sadly, not all her magical sparkles can keep Ling from being knocked out and left unconscious in the middle of the High Rollers' Club. Certainly, she requires a nice foot massage to soothe her aches and nurse her back to health, eh? Check it out! I'll try to have more Ling in the future!

Ling Xiaoyu (Tekken Series)

Ling Xiaoyu: Kung Fu Feet at their Cutest.

Yet another Tekken babe, the super-cute Ling Xiaoyu is one of the most popular and well-known fighters in the long-running franchise. Boasting one of the most beautiful and graceful fighting styles seen in a fighting game plus a loveably cute personality, Ling has surely tip-toed into many a barefoot fan's fantasies since she debuted in Tekken 3. Surely, this kung-fu expert has strong, beautiful feet, with perfectly-formed toes and soles smoothened by countless kicks. From Tekken 3 to Tekken 5 though, fans have had to imagine how awesome she could be barefoot since Xiaoyu has never shown off her feet in a Tekken game... until now. Once again, barefoot fans have Tekken 6 to thank for finally giving us Xiaoyu's bare feet to ogle, admire and enjoy. Perhaps it was just as well the perfect time to see them, with Ling quite a bit more mature now (at least physically, if not in behavior) and surely at her most beautiful and sexy. One more reason to await Tekken 6 for consoles, later this year. For now, enjoy more of these videos with barefoot Ling.

Here is Ling kicking butt in Bloodline Rebellion and showing off a bit in her win animations. Ling's petite but potent feet are revealed to be as lovely as we've always imagined them. Imagine her waving them in your face!


Here's Ling in her P1 Qipao dress outfit sans shoes (Barefoot Customization is nicely free and ready-to-use in Bloodline Rebellion), getting KO'ed and showing off some nice sole shots in the process.


Here's Ling in another KO vid, knocked unconscious by Zafina who's just sitting next to her, staring. Well, if Xiaoyu was lying before me like this, I'd be staring at her too... though probably I'd do more than just stare. I'd surely venture to give Ling a soothing massage for her beautiful, unconscious feet. And maybe sneak in a kiss or two on her soles before she wakes up (and kicks my ass). Heheh...


More KOs with Ling from Zafina. This time, Ling's in a sexy 'rabbit shirt' custom, which nicely shows off a bit of mid-riff.


This vid has Xiaoyu in the grip of creepy Sergei Dragunov (damn luck guy), who sends her off to dreamland again. Where is Dragunov crawling to? To a better position for a better view of Ling's feet, of course.
