 During
tonight's The
Game Awards 2024, the first category announced at the opening of the pre-show
was none other than "Best Fighting Game 2024" — with TEKKEN
8
reigning supreme and receiving
the most votes from fans, beating out Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection:
Arcade Classics and 3 other games. After accepting the award for "Best Fighting Game of
2024," Katsuhiro Harada and Michael Murray told fans at The Game Awards to
stay tuned for an announcement. Later on in the show, Clive Rosfield, the
main protagonist of Final Fantasy XVI, was revealed as TEKKEN
8's first guest character. Clive joins the game next week on December 16th.
After an initial teaser broadcasted live during TGA '24, Bandai
Namco shared Clive's full-length Gameplay Trailer. 
Clive's
trailer shows off his flashy sword and magic-based fighting style,
including a demonstration of his fiery Rage Art which features an iconic summon
monster from the Final Fantasy series, Ifrit. Clive can summon a
variety of weapons and monsters to fight alongside him. Similarly to Noctis
in TEKKEN 7,
Clive brings his own Final Fantasy XVI-themed battle stage — Phoenix
Gate— to TEKKEN 8. Nothing but beautiful fan service for Final
Fantasy and TEKKEN players, alike!

To celebrate new playable character Clive Rosfield arriving next week on
December 16th, the TEKKEN 8 in-game shop has been updated with
new "Final Fantasy XVI ×
TEKKEN 8" collaboration items, including: universal Final
Fantasy-themed customization items for all characters, Final
Fantasy monster "Bomb" King for use with TEKKEN Ball mode, Final
Fantasy avatar items, and more. The collaboration also rewards TEKKEN
8 players with 500 TEKKEN coins to spend in the shop.
