Pokkén Tournament was just recently released in Japanese arcades. There has been little talk about North America getting its hands on the new fighter, until now.

The Senior Vice President of Entertainment and Game Strategy at Dave & Buster’s, Kevin Bachus, has started an Ask Me Anything on Reddit, and has revealed that Dave and Buster's plans to feature Pokkén Tournament in its arcades.

Bachus states, "We will be testing Pokken. Candidly both NAMCO and I are more optimistic about that title and our typical guests than Tekken." There is no official time frame yet as to when this will actually happen.

Surely Pokémon's draw on younger audiences piques D&B's interest in the game for their more family-oriented arcades. You can hit the jump below to see some game play footage of the new title.
