Tekken 8’s Microtransaction Store is Now Live
01.03.2024 - 02:45 / gamingbolt.com / Bandai Namco / Eddy Gordo
A little over a month after its release, Tekken 8 now has an in-game shop where players can spend real-world money to buy cosmetics for their characters. Dubbed the Tekken Shop, the shop is kicking things off with Uniqlo-branded gear, along with other cosmetics like classic costumes and avatar skins.
There are currently 4 legacy alternative costumes, 4 avatar skins and 8 fireworks that can be purchased from the Tekken Shop. According to Bandai Namco, the shop will be updated with new items on a monthly basis.
The Tekken Shop was originally uncovered earlier this month, and is seen by some as a fairly controversial addition to Tekken 8, as the title is a full-priced AAA release which launched without any indication of such an item shop coming to the game. Tekken 8 is also slated to get more content in its first year in the form of four DLC fighters. Among the additions to the roster will be fan-favourite Eddy Gordo this Spring.
Tekken 8 is available on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. For more details, check out our review.

Tekken 8 Has Implemented Microtransactions and Fans Aren’t Happy!
There are many “plights” in the video game industry that are affecting the various businesses that inhabit it. Just this week alone, two major publishers announced that they were laying off a combined 1500 people, and more are likely to come in March. Another issue is the cost of games and the amount of cash just being thrown at them in an attempt to be good and sell well. That’s one of the reasons for the layoffs, in fact. The other side effect of such actions, as being proven right now by Tekken 8, is that microtransactions are popping up everywhere. Much to the dismay of gamers as a whole.
