Tekken 8 Trailer Reveals Devil Jin

According to a new leak, Tekken 7's Lidia and Fahkumram will be included in Tekken 8's first season pass as DLC fighters. Tekken 8 has a roster comprised of a healthy mix of newcomers and veterans. Some of the characters that were introduced in Tekken 7 have returned for the eighth mainline entry, which include the Wing Chun practitioner Leroy Smith, the exorcist Claudio Serafino, and the Saudi Arabian fighter Shaheen.

A Tekken 8 dataminer has uncovered several clues that hint at some of the DLC characters who might be making up the game's first season pass alongside Eddy Gordo.

For those who want the best possible visuals, a modder has come up with a Tekken 8 configuration that allows for even better graphics than the game's ultra settings. A few weeks after its release, Tekken 8 has quickly become one of the most popular games to come out in 2024, proving to be another big hit for the legendary franchise.

Publisher Bandai Namco and developer Spike Chunsoft Co., Ltd. have revealed 24 fighters for Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero, and they're all Goku and Vegeta. Unsurprisingly, considering Goku and Vegeta are the two main characters in the Dragon Ball Z saga (amongst others like Gohan, for example), Spike Chunsoft is giving players the chance to fight using their various forms. This includes Super Saiyan, Super Saiyan 2, Majin Vegeta, and more. 

The first few weeks of 2024 have thoroughly dispelled the notion that this year was going to be a slower one than the last one, with a string of several excellent new games already having launched in January. Last week, Tekken 8 joined that growing list, and the widespread critical acclaim that Bandai Namco’s fighter has enjoyed is being reflected in its engagement numbers as well.

Tekken 8 is off to a solid start on Steam, as it has surpassed the previous game's concurrent player count on the platform. Tekken 8 is the eighth mainline game in the long-running fighting game franchise, being touted as the grand finale of the Mishima Family storyline. A number of impressive fighting games were released in 2023, with major releases like Street Fighter 6 and Mortal Kombat 1 being praised by fans and critics alike. With that in mind, Tekken 8 had a lot to live up to, and fortunately it seems to be doing just that.

Tekken director Katsuhiro Harada has made a statement following the heavy volume of requests from fans to see Final Fantasy 7's Tifa Lockhart added to Tekken 8. The long-awaited release of the newest entry in the fighting game franchise has already seen rave reviews from both fans and critics. Many have already referred to Tekken 8 as one of the franchise's strongest entries, praising its upgraded graphical presentation and new mechanics like the Heat system. Now, fans are clamoring for one particular character to join the roster.

Almost nine years after the previous game’s launch, Bandai Namco’s Tekken 8 is out now for PS5, Xbox Series X/S and PC. Developed on Unreal Engine 5, it continues the saga of the Mishima clan, with Jin Kazama battling Kazuya Mishima.

The trophy / achievement list for Tekken 8 has come out prior to release.

Tekken 8 is on its way, and fans now have a sneak peek of the upcoming game’s Achievement and Trophy list. The latest installment in the long-running Tekken franchise launches on Friday, January 26th, introducing new mechanics and four new characters.
