The next mainline entry, ''Tekken'' 7, released on the System ES3 arcade board in 2015 and runs with Unreal Engine 4. Most of the characters who last appeared in ''Tekken 6'' return, as well as several new characters. This game is notable for being the first mainline entry to introduce true guest characters—though ''Tekken 3'' had Gon, ''Tekken 7'' introduced Akuma from {{uv|Street Fighter}} as a significant part of the story, and characters from {{uv|Fatal Fury|The King of Fighters}}-related series (namely ''Fatal Fury'' shared universe series, and the titular ''KOF'' tournament series), {{uv|Final Fantasy}}, and even ''{{iw|wikipedia|The Walking Dead|franchise}}'' were later added in as DLC and additional contents for post-console release Arcade updates (the latter guest series is excluded from the arcade updates). The game also introduced several new mechanics, including an additional "Rage" family of systems, which are often comeback mechanics when low on health. The game received an update titled ''Tekken 7: Fated Retribution'' in 2016, which introduced new characters, stages and mechanics. This version provided the basis for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Microsoft Windows versions in 2017. The game has gone on to be the third best selling ''Tekken'' game (behind ''3'' and ''5'') in history at over 7 million copies sold.

Finally, a Netflix animated series of the franchise titled ''Tekken: Bloodline'' was revealed, and will premiere in 2022. This series will focus on Jin Kazama's plot during the storyline of the franchise.
The ''Tekken'' team has also collaborated with {{iw|bulbapedia|The Pokémon Company}} to develop ''{{iw|bulbapedia|Pokkén Tournament}}'', which released in arcades in 2015 and on Wii U in 2016. The game is notable for having different stages and characters between both versions, and using the same compatible memory card on both versions can unlock the missing content in both. The game received an enhanced port titled ''Pokkén Tournament DX'' on [[Nintendo Switch]] in 2017, which combined the content in the arcade and Wii U version and added new content. Aside from a ''Tekken'' skin created for ''Galaga'', ''Tekken Mobile'', released for mobile devices in 2018, used touch screen inputs to use the fighter and has gacha elements known as Waza cards, which did have unique effects. As of February 15, 2019 the game was no longer playable likely because of the negative reception of the game's expensive prices, and lack of revenue on the game's part. Four years later and after continuous updates for ''Tekken 7'', a Netflix animated series of the franchise titled ''Tekken: Bloodline'' was revealed, and premiered in 2022. This series focuses on Jin Kazama's plot during the storyline of the franchise.
