Tekken 8 Teases Its Explosive Story Mode in Latest Trailer | Push Square

pushsquare.com:

Bandai Namco is full steam ahead with Tekken 8 as the fighting game fast approaches launch day. The title is due for release on 26th January 2024, and up to now, most of its trailers have been focused on single characters. This new one, however, shows off the game's Story mode — and it's looking typically mad.

Following on from the events of Tekken 7, the story will follow Jin Kazama in his quest to bring the fight to his father, Kazuya. The mode will involve the game's wider cast in a narrative that'll see the return of the King of Iron Fist Tournament — but it seems the world has bigger problems if Kazama is allowed to run rampant.

The just-released Tekken 8 demo includes the first chapter of this Story mode, so you can see how it starts out before the full game comes next month. Are you excited for Tekken 8? Tell us in the comments section below.

Having grown up alongside PlayStation, Stephen has developed an eclectic taste in video games and a wide knowledge of the medium, from small indie gems to the biggest AAA blockbusters. Ever hopeful that the Burnout series makes a miraculous return.

Can we take a moment to appreciate how fire Yoshimitstu looks?

I played the demo today and I loved it. It was just a small taste, but it was so, so delicious.

Yoshimitsu looking good! The demo is really enjoyable too, though none of my usual characters is valuable

This looks awesome and capitalizes on all of my nostalgia. Tekken 4 was one of the first games I owned on PS2, amazing game. That being said I just cannot justify spending 70 bucks on a fighting game. I don't play online and wouldn't really play locally with anyone so I don't think its worth it for just the campaign and the odd time I would throw it on for a round or two.
