The latest European release schedule from Namco Bandai contains an entry for Tekken 3DS. It’s listed with a “TBA” release date.

This means one of two things: Namco Bandai made an error (which is very possible), or we’re getting another Tekken game for the 3DS. I’m somewhat doubtful that we’ll see another handheld Tekken game so soon after Prime Edition, but you never know.

Namco Bandai has announced One Piece Unlimited Cruise SP2 for Europe today. The 3DS title hits European store shelves on July 27.

One Piece: Unlimited Cruise SP2 features action gameplay, over 12 playable characters, 15 bosses, and more.

The first One Piece Unlimited Cruise SP was released in European territories earlier this year. Whereas Japan received one full, complete product, Namco Bandai decided to split the European release into two episodes.
