Tekken 8 Fans Are Really Sick Of Azucena Talking About Coffee
Tekken 8 players are getting really sick of newcomer Azucena talking about coffee all the time, as it's pretty much the only part of her personality we've been let in on.
One of the best things about Tekken 8 is its roster, which is made up of beloved series veterans and some of the all-time best newcomers to join Tekken in a long time - Azucena, Reina, and Victor.
