TEKKEN 8
Heat System Showcase, Battle Stage Destruction, Jun Confirmed
Playable
|
|
|
|
 Following
the TEKKEN World Tour 2022 North America Regional Finals for TEKKEN 7,
chief producer Katsuhiro Harada and producer Michael Murray debuted some
new gameplay footage of TEKKEN
8
and provided new insight on the game's new "Heat" system
mechanic. The new footage demonstrates how characters like Jin
Kazama, Lars, and
Jack-8 can use the "Heat" system to extend their
offense and apply pressure. [UPDATE]
 A lot more
of the Heat System was demonstrated in the official TEKKEN 8
character reveal trailers. Watch the first twelve TEKKEN 8
character reveal trailers in 4K in our video below!
Additionally, Murray and Harada previewed TEKKEN 8's Battle
Stage Destruction system — which was previously teased briefly in the Game
Awards trailer — in addition to
revealing Paul
Phoenix's Rage Art (confirming the return of Rage Arts for TEKKEN 8).
The producers noted that Battle Stage Destruction is not only for visual aesthetics
but will also effect gameplay (for example: widening
the stage, transitioning to a new area, or possibly extending combos). As this was a live reveal, you can also hear the
pure excitement of the live crowd in attendance! 
|
Harada and Murray also confirmed that Jun
Kazama is indeed playable in TEKKEN 8 and revealed several pieces
of TEKKEN 8 concept artwork showing off Jun's updated attire.
|
Finally, Murray and Harada announced a free TEKKEN
7 update coming out on Tuesday, December 13th, 2022 to
celebrate the recent milestone of 10
million copies sold. The update will add a variety of new character
art panels to the game created by some very talented (and perhaps
recognizable) fan artists from around the globe.
|
[UPDATE]
Some of the illustrations that players will be able to add to their
characters' versus screen panels are by artists such as: Click Burgundy,
Geoffrey Daigon, Kotomaru, Suzuki Sake, Ushiwakamaru,
Aru Barros, Carlos Fornas, Lag, Viel8801, September,
and Milos Djurdjevic. Below are some samples of the upcoming free TEKKEN
7 fan art panels to be added to the game tomorrow. Congrats to
all of these awesome artists!

Head over to the new article for more details on the free version 5.10
update including the patch
notes and take an even closer look at the new Character Panel Set. Be sure to
stay tuned on Fighters Generation for upcoming
TEKKEN 8 news,
future character reveals, and original content coming soon!
