Now we have the full name of Tekken 7next DLC fighter: Lidia Sobieska. Bandai Namco recently sent out physical press kits with the character’s name included. The press box included a letter from Heihachi Mishima addressed directly to the new fighter as well. Lidia Sobieska will be launched in the early spring of 2021. [Thanks, Destructoid and Mark Julio!]
Bandai Namco is stepping up its promotional efforts for Lidia in Tekken 7. Inside the press kit is a letter from Mishima Zaibatsu’s own CEO, Heihachi Mishima. This adds some extra wisdom for people to reflect on. As a reminder, the new DLC fighter is the Prime Minister of Poland in Tekkenuniverse of.
According to Heihachi’s letter, Lidia requested the removal of the Tekken Force deployed in Poland. The CEO said he has no intention of complying with her request, but admired her for having achieved her position at such a young age. Although the letter is read with cordiality, in the typical Heihachi style, it is more of a threat. The difficult position in which Mishima Zaibatsu placed Lidia will serve as her motivation to enter the King of the Iron Fist Tournament.
