Tekken 8 Free Updates Add Photo Mode, New Story, and More as Lidia Returns | Push Square

pushsquare.com:

Bandai Namco has spiled the beans on what's next for Tekken 8. Throughout the rest of 2024, players can expect a bunch of free updates, and Lidia has been confirmed as the game's second DLC character. She arrives at some point this summer.

Lidia debuted in Tekken 7 as one of its final DLC fighters. She was quite well liked, featuring an aggressive playstyle and some cool stance-based stuff. She should fit right in.

As for the updates, a big balance patch is out this spring — so that'll be here soon — and in the summer, a new stage called Seaside Resort is dropping, alongside a dedicated photo mode. The latter could be a fantastic addition, given how good the game can look.

Then, in the autumn, a new story chapter's being added, which seems to feature Eddy. 'Online Practice' and 'Ghost vs Ghost' modes have also been mentioned.

There's a lot to look forward to then, but are you hyped for more Tekken 8? Don't drop your combo in the comments section below.

Robert (or Rob if you're lazy) has been a fan of PlayStation since the 90s, when Tekken 2 introduced him to the incredible world of video games. He still takes his fighting games seriously, but RPGs are his true passion. The Witcher, Dragon Quest, Mass Effect, Final Fantasy, he's played 'em all — a little too much, some might say.

Slightly disappointed at this choice but oh well

my girl is back

Maybe I'm just old fashioned and «don't get it», but for me fighting games, more than any other genre, really brings home the penny pinching nature of the modern games industry.

She was already leaked a long while ago but its still nice to see her back, one of the better newcomers imo.

Nothing is free in Tekken

Lei Wulong, please
