As a continuation from the seventh mainline game, it will focus on a conclusion of Kazuya and Jin's enmity. It is set for release on the PlayStation 5, Windows through Steam, and Xbox Series X/S platforms. A teaser for a new mainline entry in the series was shown during Tekken 7's tournament at EVO 2022, before being formally announced on September 13, 2022, during Sony's State of Play presentation. Tekken 8 was announced on September 13, 2022, via the PlayStation State of Play. The second trailer also revealed the return of Paul Phoenix, Marshall Law, King, Lars Alexandersson, as well as a new version of Jack. Jun's design comes from artist Mari Shimazaki, famous for Bayonetta. The game marks the return of Jun Kazama, Jin's mother, who was believed to be missing in the events of Tekken 3 and onwards. Jin wants to kill Kazuya to end the chaos from their lineage as his father keeps causing chaos in the world. Set six months after the events of Tekken 7, the fight is reminiscent of the final battle between Kazuya and his father Heihachi, but Harada aims to surprise the audience. However, Harada has remarked that the final scene of the trailer involving broken chains acts as symbolism for Jin breaking free from the conflicts he has been connected with for several games. It continues absorbing his humanity to the point that he becomes his Devil Jin alter-ego in the middle of the fight. While Jin already faced his relatives in previous games from the franchise, in the upcoming one, he is shown in a major conflict with his Devil Gene abnormality. Jin Kazama and his father, Kazuya Mishima, are poised to begin their final battle, which has been building up since Tekken 4. * It is unclear yet if Devil Jin will feature as a separate character to Jin in ''Tekken 8''. In contrast to Tekken 7, which is powered by Unreal Engine 4, Tekken 8 will be powered by the Unreal Engine 5, making it the very first major fighting game to utilize this latest game engine. In addition, voice lines will be based solely on the current voice actors, rather than using any from the previous games. Rather than recycling content, all character models are completely new and are meant to be an improvement over previous games. However, unlike the Tag mode-only health bar regeneration system from Tekken Tag Tournament games, fighters’ recoverable health can only be recovered by attacking the opponent. When guarding against a normal state’s heavy attack, or Heat State characters, fighters will receive a chip damage that causes their health bar to become regenerable. Tekken 7’s “Screw” damage property was originally going to return in this game, but it is ultimately replaced with a newer juggle combo extender system that puts opponent into a ground-bound-like state upon falling to the ground quickly - similar to Tekken 6 - whether the combo extender be a launcher or a knockback. This new system was based on reception to the predecessor. There will also be a focus on stage destruction, character reactions to these, and making the gameplay enjoyable to watch as well as play, since Tekken is now considered a high-level e-sports game. The Heat State’s timer can be stopped if fighters’ move sets are being used. Fighters can also dash cancel their designate moves into the Heat State, similar to MAX Mode from The King of Fighters series. Similar to Soul Charge state from Soulcalibur VI, the Heat State grants not only chip damage and additional move sets, but also changes the properties of some characters’ move sets, such as a heavy guard break. The gameplay will reward aggressiveness rather than those who "turtle up". The eighth main and tenth overall installment in the Tekken series, the game is set to be released for PlayStation 5, Windows, and Xbox Series X and Series S.Īccording to director Katsuhiro Harada, Tekken 8 gameplay will focus on "aggressiveness" and will have a new "Heat" gauge system, in addition to returning gameplay features from Tekken 7, such as Rage system-based attacks, with the Rage Drive having been separated and reworked as a Heat system-based move known as Heat Smash, leaving the Rage State that can only have an access to use Rage Art once more like prior to the Fated Retribution version of Tekken 7. Tekken 8 ( 鉄拳8) is an upcoming fighting game co-developed by Bandai Namco Studios and Arika and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment.
