Yes, you read that correctly. Katsuhiro Harada of Tekken fame stated that he will continue to support the idea of free DLC regardless of pressure from the higher ups at Namco. His personal opposition against Paid DLC stems from the recent controversy regarding Street Fighter X Tekken's on-disc DLC. He has already stated earlier this year on his twitter that the most recent Tekken entry, Tekken Tag Tournament 2, will have free DLC in lieu of Capcom's failure and fan feedback. Moreover, he also stated that fans can expect to receive Tekken X Street fighter this gen and also talks the challenges behind pleasing the fanbase. See the sources more info.
