The game introduces 32 characters, including returning favorites and new additions, each contributing to the overall narrative. The development of “Tekken 8” was hinted in August 2022 and officially announced during Sony’s State of Play event next month. The game was made using Unreal Engine 5, focusing on a more aggressive tone and enhancing the combat elements of the previous game.

New game mechanics have been added, such as the Heat system and Tornado hits, as well as updated character models and voice acting. The online mode includes arcade missions with tournaments, arcade features, customizable avatars, and special in-game currency. Stability testing begins in July and October 2023, with demos available on PlayStation and Xbox Series in December.

Tekken 8 gameplay

Tekken 8’s fighting game style is similar to previous Tekken games. Game producer Katsuhiro Harada said that the design of “Tekken 8” is “more aggressive” than its predecessor, rewarding players who take the initiative to attack rather than defend.

To achieve this goal, Tekken 8 introduces a new system called “Heat.” When a character enters a “warm-up” state, it not only deals chip damage and unlocks additional moves, but it also changes the properties of certain moves, such as Heavy Guard Breach. A fighter in this state can dash to cancel their actions. Heat’s timer can be stopped by using the fighter’s moveset, and defending against a critical hit or Heat status character will cause chip damage, allowing players to restore health by attacking opponents.

The game also brings technical updates and redesigned features. The “Rage” system from the previous game returns with changes, such as “Rage Drive” being separated and redesigned into “Heat Crush”, a super move tied to the Heat system. The “screw” mechanic is replaced by the “tornado” extender, and some levels present hazards, such as harder walls and floors that require multiple attacks to break, and explosive elements that cause opponents to explode upwards.

Tekken 8 aims to provide a more cinematic combat experience, emphasizing staged destruction and specific character reactions. All character models and voice acting are brand new, with no reuse from previous entries. The online mode features an “Arcade Quest” battle lobby with an arcade environment, regular online battles, and tournaments. Players can customize their avatar using an in-game currency called “Fight Money.” Tekken 8 is powered by the next-generation Unreal Engine 5, making it the first major fighting game to use this advanced engine.

After recovering from his injuries, Jin found that he could no longer activate his magic at will. He participates in Japan’s tournament qualifiers and meets Rena, a student at Mishima Institute of Technology who looks a lot like his grandfather Heihachi. After securing a spot in the main event, Kim discovers that Rina is a Mishima and secretly wants to know how Kim and Kazuya activate their demonic powers.

Meanwhile, in Italy, figures such as Claudio Serafino, Zafina and Ling Xiaoyu watched the game. Zafina warns that Kazuya needs to be stopped and Jin is found. Niklas Clayson revealed information about the demon gene and Azazel to Yggdrasil. In the official game, Kazuya absorbed Azazel’s power and became a true demon. Jin, Leroy Smith and others tried to resist Kazuya. Claudio uses his power to hurt Kazuya, seemingly sacrificing himself.

Jin believes he can regain control of his demonic powers and travels to Kazama Sanctuary. Determined to eliminate the rebels, Kazuo also faces opposition from Yggdrasil, the United Nations Independent Forces, and former tournament combatants.

In a subconscious battle, King faced his own demons and finally accepted and took full control of his powers. He saves Lars from Kazuya’s attack and fights Kazuya in the final battle, purifying each other of their demonic genes. Jin wakes up in his angel form, defeats Kazuya, and leaves with Xiaoyu. In the post-credits scene, Reina, who was thought to be dead, survived Kazuya’s attack and revealed her demonic genes, vowing to avenge her father Heihachi.
