Tekken 8 Exceeds Bandai Namco's Expectations, Tops 2 Million Sales | Push Square
Bandai Namco’s excellent brawler Tekken 8 is exceeding the publisher’s expectations, and has topped two million units less than three weeks after its release. It took Tekken 7 around two months to achieve the same milestone, meaning this new entry is selling at a much faster pace than its predecessor. Bravo to all involved.

The success is deserved, and we’re huge fans of the game, as noted in our Tekken 8 PS5 review: “Tekken 8 is a modern fighting game masterclass. It doesn't skimp on single player modes, its online offering is robust, and it's a serious visual spectacle. But most importantly, the battles are brilliant; accessible yet deeply technical, and supremely satisfying to be a part of — perhaps more so than ever before.”

It’s been a good time to be a fan of fighting games, having Tekken, Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter 6 all releasing quite close to each other. Definitely Tekken 8 has been my favourite though!!
It deserves the success. Whilst it was a joy to play and platinum i ended up selling it to a friend.i just found it too hard for me to master on a competitive level. Great game tho.
