TEKKEN 8 Story Trailer lands a punch ahead of the January 26th release!

Bandai Namco releases Tekken 8 on January 26th 2024 and has released the brand new story trailer before the game gets into melee range!

Fists will soon be flying again in the Tekken universe: With Tekken 8, Bandai Namco has a sequel to the martial arts series in the forge that promises visually appealing fisticuffs based on Unreal Engine 5. Once again, there are disagreements between the Mishima and Kazama bloodlines. Kazuya Mishima's father Heihachi Mishimia is considered defeated and Kazuya continues his campaign of conquest. The story trailer introduces us to the background story of Tekken 8 and not only presents familiar fighters, but also new faces. For example, "Coffee Queen" and MMA fighter Azucena from Peru, who is probably already fully loaded with caffeine.

Meet Yoshimitsu in a new character spotlight video

Get to know not only the story, but also Yoshimitsu. If that's even necessary, because you may already know Yoshimitsu from the other installments in the Tekken series. For Tekken 8, however, the manji ninjutsu armed with katanas has undergone a facelift. Because Yoshimitsu has never gone out like he does in Tekken 8. Powerful whirling attacks with his blades make life difficult for opponents - and as can be seen in the trailer, the bludgeoning Yoshi even fends off bullets from a Gatling gun.
