Tekken 8 Official Thread

Final previews are pouring out on YT, all characters, stages, costumes, gameplay of chars whose trailers haven't yet been shown etc.
Won't even bother to post it as there's ****load of it:P

Demo coming out on Thursday exclusively on PS5 and on December 21 for other platforms.

Previews looking very positive in general but the DAMN JUKEBOX! Max recorded some footage of the reveal stage with Electric Fountain from T6 playing, not only does this work as intended now but it's also not a PS-exclusive feature anymore. Starts at 17:12:D

Not long now. Looking forward to my pre order unlocking.

Did you preorder?

Weirdly enough, I haven't yet:P I mean, I rarely preorder anything but this time it's more because I'm still unsure whether I want to play it on PS5 first, sell it and move to Steam later or just get it on Steam, well see:P

PS5 demo is live, four characters, a bit of Story, Arcade Quest + Ghost Battle.

Hard to get too excited about it since I've already been through 30+h of Ranked across three network tests but I might jump in later to faff about with wavedashing and electrics:P

I don't play Mishimas but I plan to play Reina as she's the first Tekken char to use Taido but she still retains a lot of the Mishima kit so shaking some rust off might be worth it for those broken +5 on block electrics:D

Super-interesting moveset and her preset 3 outfit is just so good.

1600h for me as of last year, haven't played since then:cry: Though a couple of hundred of those was probably idling/waiting for matches/whatever:D 0h for story mode, this time I'll at least try to play it:P

That's according to Steam counter though, not sure how accurate it is.

Anyways, new players are going to have a time of their lives among all the sweatlords mashing Heat 24/7:cry:

only a mere 92 hours of Tekken 7 ranked for me, think I fell off around Leroy's release that brought with it a bunch of character nerfs if I remember correctly.
Haven't touched 8 yet but super excited for the January release. Not sure I will have the time to get it into like I used to but will certainly try.
 
just installed the demo.....JUST WOW!

The graphics engine is absolutely incredible and its plays beautifully.

I am running it on the 2nd system in my sig as its in the home office next to my desk. 2070 super absolutely chews through it at 1440p
 
Goddamn Tekken. The game had my heart in Tekken 2, especially with that sound track. Next time I got to revisit Tekken was Tekken 5 iirc. I was introduced to Lily, who became my leg flailing fave, and some nice visuals, but that was about it.

Got Tekken 7 eventually on PC, which looked like crap for the year I discovered it - certainly not particularly noticeably better than PS3 Tekken 5.

Know what ****** me off? Your opponent transforming in to something completely ethereal / superior after being defeated, with screen destroying moves. Tekken 2 was prime as I remember it:- all your opponents started off in the same form as they ended.
