Frick it;
-Tekken 8 WILL be going directly to consoles.
- Confirmed characters thus far are Jin, Kazuya, Ling, Leroy, King, Paul, Marshall Law, Nina and Yoshimitsu. Expect those characters to be shown first as they're furthest in development.
-New characters so far is a military chick who's a grappler(Think Lars mixed with Jaycee), A character with a "Jailhouse Rock" fighting style who actually specialises having thier back against the wall via wall run-esqe exclusive moves and position switching properties. Oh and a literal Gorilla.
-New rage mechanic "Perfect dodge". Game goes slow-mo and makes your character step back and be invincible for a few frames, allowing for a clear whiff punish.
-Ling loses faith in Jin for embracing the devil gene. Lars dies. Catalist for big fighty fighty. Spoilers I guess. Don't know the whole story in context.
- Something about a thunder God being alluded to? Could be the final boss, though no clue.
- Levels so far are a construction site, a cruise ship and a museum. Oddly enough, no testing on the trailer level though that could just be story mode exclusive.
....and that's all the leaks. Why? Underpaid and had my pay cut. F this job.
Oh and the guest character is Furiosa from Mad Max Fury Road. Enjoy!
>”leaking” Tekken details
>literally no one cares about tekken or its god awful story
lmao cool bro
What about single player content like Tekken force and Netplay (rollback)?
No idea. They probably haven't even thought about what bonus mode yet let alone developing it. Don't know anything about the netcode either.
Don't care about anything but Tekken Bowl and Julia

V-Shift
>embracing the devil gene
frick are you talking about? the teaser literally shows that jin didn't really embrace it in the way kaz did and moreso just learned to control it
also if true is heihachi back? he's totally going to be playable in some capacity but will he be in the story somehow?
No idea about Heihachi. Not going to pretend I know everything like some BS leaker. It's probably difficult to decide how they're going to bring him in considering the circumstances of the voice actor but IF they do, expect a brand new voice actor at least. Probably a dlc or flashback in the story? Perhaps both? That's my best assumption.
>only thing new is piling more shit into rage
sounds about right
what do you homosexuals gain by writing stupid fanfic fake leak bullshit?
a dopamine hit?
Actually Heihachi is dead and does not come back, but they build a robot version of him and give him all the gathered data about his fighting style, while also adding robot upgrades like piston hands and such, they decide that it will be a new JACK model, specifically JACK 8, or JACK-HACHI since 8 in japanese can also be spelled as that, basically it's a pun to make a combined version of Heihachi and JACK.
hold the fricking phone Black person, are there two """"""insiders'"""""" here?
i like this. if fake then huge props to you because you are one creative son of a b***h
It's a copy pasta of a fan theory going round. They aren't the one to come up with it nor does it have any basis. Will they actually go down the robot Heihachi route? Probably, but it won't replace Jack.
This makes it possible to have Heihachi back with robo pre-recorded vocals
I thought he would be added as a new Jack model but the hachi shit is literally confirming it
What does Paul's new design look like? What about Yoshi?
Off by memory, Paul has got his hair down, a white tank top, jeans and barefoot for some reason? Yoshi looks like a mannequin with Samurai armour come to life? Best way I can describe it.
Wait, Paul actually had a buzzcut. My mistake.
Sounds good I am erect.
