Pallet swaps
There final two characters aren’t standard characters that you unlock through a story mode, cheat code or buy opening your wallet. In fact, both of these characters hide in plain sight. Here is how players can unlock Devil Kazuya and Violet.
Devil Kazuya
Players who played through the Tekken 7 story mode (and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate) may be familiar with Devil Kazuya and it’s actually possible to play as him in Tekken 7.
To do this, players will simply need to play as Kazuya and enter his Devil Kazuya form by using Kazuya’s Rage Art. To use Devil Transformation you just simply have to push the right bumper on your controller or Up/Left punch 2x. This will transform the player into Devil Kazuya for a short duration.
Violet
On this day 6 years ago, it was announced at the 2016 Gamescon event that Lee Chaolan/Violet was joining Tekken 7 as a returning playable character for the game. The reveal trailer can be watched below. pic.twitter.com/5wgzCajGHW

The alter ego of Lee Chaolan, Violet is simply just a palate swap for Lee that can easily be accessed in the character select menu. To play as Violet, simply hover over Lee and swap to the Player 2 outfit which can be done by pressing Circle or Square on a Playstation controller or X or B on an Xbox controller.
