The latest character to be revealed for Tekken 8 is Leo, who first made his debut in the series with Tekken 6. In the new trailer, Leo’s moves are showcased with his Bajiquan style coming through. It is a Chinese based martial art that focuses on close combat with powerful moves. Leo is also on his quest for revenge against the Mishima family.
Looking back on the last game, Tekken 7, we awarded it a mighty 9/10 in out review, saying: “Tekken 7 is a phenomenal fighting game experience and one I’d highly recommend. It’s by no means perfect, as the game is not without a few technical issues online, some long loading times, and minor continuity errors, yet as far as most people will be concerned, it delivers a stunning, up-to-date fighting game experience from one of the masters of arcade fighting games. A solid return to form.”
A while back, a lengthy Tekken 8 gameplay deep dive that explored new gameplay mechanics including a new heat system, modified Rage Art system that uses a common input – Rage Drive from Tekken 7 has been removed – and a recover gauge that has some common ground with the Tekken Tag Tournament games.
Tekken 8 will release on 26th January for PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC.
