Capcom’s marketing for Street Fighter 6 is in full swing so it’s possible that the company will announce a 2023 release date too. In addition to Tekken 8, it’s likely that we’ll see a few more anticipated fighting games at The Game Awards. Bandai Namco already announced its plans to release the fighter sometime next year, though didn’t provide an exact date yet. So far, the only confirmed characters seem to be Kazuya and Jin, though this new showcase at The Game Awards might offer a glimpse at more of the roster.įans speculate that since we’re seeing a lot more of Tekken 8 now, it might be targeting a 2023 release date.

It presented a mix of cinematic transitions and gameplay, showing off some truly impressive visuals and a massive leap from Tekken 7. Jin gets the upper hand by utilising his Devil Gene. The reveal trailer for Tekken 8 showed father and son Kazuya Mishima and Jin Kazama trading blows as a storm rages around them. Bandai Namco confirmed that it would be built entirely in Unreal Engine 5 and would only be available on current-gen consoles as well as PC, meaning it won’t be released on PS4 and Xbox One.

Tekken 8 was first announced earlier this year at a PlayStation State of Play event. A Tekken 8 package has seemingly gone out to select individuals stating that fans can tune into the awards show on 8 December for another look at the fighting game. Tekken 8, the upcoming highly anticipated fighter from Bandai Namco, has been confirmed to appear at The Game Awards 2022.
