Tekken 8 is the highly anticipated eighth main installment and tenth overall entry in the acclaimed fighting game series. Developed by Bandai Namco Studios and Arika, Tekken 8 marks a major leap forward as the series’ first major title to utilize Unreal Engine 5, promising a visually stunning and immersive experience.
Plot: Set six months after the events of Tekken 7, Tekken 8 delves into the intense conflict between Jin Kazama and his father, Kazuya Mishima. The story intensifies as Jin, grappling with his Devil Gene, transforms into Devil Jin during the climactic battle. The game explores Jin’s struggle to break free from the familial conflicts that have driven the series’ narrative since Tekken 4. Players will also see the return of Jun Kazama, Jin’s mother, alongside other familiar faces from the series.
Gameplay: Tekken 8 introduces a new layer of depth with its ‘Heat’ gauge system, which rewards aggressive gameplay over defensive tactics. The game features a revamped ‘Heat Smash’ system and a new ‘Heat State’ that inflicts chip damage and alters character movement properties. Stage destruction and dynamic character reactions enhance the visual spectacle of battles. Additionally, the new system for extending juggle combos replaces Tekken 7’s “Screw” damage property, while fighters must attack to regain health.
Key Features:
- Unreal Engine 5: Experience breathtaking graphics and immersive gameplay with the latest technology.
- Iconic Characters: Fight with familiar faces like Paul Phoenix, Marshall Law, King, and Lars Alexandersson.
- New Character Models: Enjoy entirely new character models created from scratch.
