The most recent instalment of the legendary fighting game series will be Tekken 8. Kazuya Mishima was briefly shown in a teaser trailer for EVO 2022, but nothing else. However, the Sony State of Play event on September 13 gave us more information about the game and what to anticipate.

In order to demonstrate how the game may appear in real-time, Jin and his evil father Kazuya Mishima engaged in combat. Here is what we currently know about Tekken 8, which is the franchise’s upcoming instalment, as interest in it grows.

Tekken 8 Release Date

On January 26, 2024, Tekken 8 will launch on the PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam. The Standard Edition, Deluxe Edition, Ultimate Edition, and Premium Collector’s Edition are the four versions of this fighter that are offered.

The “Gold Suit Pack” for the game’s 32 launch roster characters, a Kinjin avatar skin, and the “Playable Character Year 1 Pass” that will add four more roster members after launch are all included when you purchase the Deluxe Edition.  All of the Deluxe Edition features as well as Kazuya, Jun, and Jin avatar skins and a “Classic Tekken 32 T-Shirt Set” for your avatar are included in the Ultimate Edition.

Tekken shared a post on Twitter about Takken 8 release date:-

Tekken 8 Trailers

At EVO 2022, a teaser trailer for Tekken 8 was released. It was a brief teaser that featured images from the original Tekken game and harkened back to simpler times. Since this is a film from the teaser’s presentation at EVO, you can hear the audience roar when they see this updated Kazuya, who is a definite improvement over his Tekken 7 character model. After this Tekken teaser, we would see a full trailer for the upcoming Tekken game, which made it clear that it would be the series’ next significant instalment.

We also observed a list of upcoming games, which you can view below:

This video game trailer is real-time 60 frames per second, as opposed to many others that are pre-rendered. However, changes could be made before the document is published. The battle between the father and son opponents took place when some well-known gaming mechanisms were in use. The trailer included electric attacks and slow-motion finishers. On December 9, 2022, Tekken 8 published a teaser trailer that featured the game’s narrative in addition to some eye-catching gameplay animations and combos.

The keynote for Tekken 8 then started. Kohei Ikeda and legendary Tekken creator Harada unveiled fresh gameplay elements for Tekken 8 while seated side by side. The brand-new Heat System and all the moves that go along with it, a redesigned Rage system, Guard damage, and other quality-of-life enhancements that set Tekken 8 apart from its predecessors were some of these.
