When it comes to the roster of Tekken 8, you'll struggle to find a character that stands out as much as Yoshimitsu does, and that's taking into account the bear and the panda. It probably has something to do with him being a space ninja, equipped with a distinctive set of armor that makes him look like he's been plucked straight out of a game like Elden Ring.

With both of these mods combined, it's almost as if Yoshimitsu was meant to be slicing and dicing his way through Elden Ring all this time.
