TEKKEN 8 Reina Early Concept Artwork by Bayonetta Artist, Mari Shimazaki

  

A standout newcomer to TEKKEN's diverse roster, TEKKEN 8's Reina is a major part of the story and brings an incredibly fluid and hard-hitting Japanese martial art called Taido to the iconic series. While her impressive moveset and insane animations were designed by Bandai Namco's own talented team of artists, Bayonetta character designer Mari Shimazaki was behind Reina's visual design in TEKKEN 8. Namco has been bringing in guest artists to design various costumes for their legendary 3D fighting game characters since the days of SoulCalibur 2 and TEKKEN 5. On social media, Mari Shimazaki posted several early Reina concept illustrations with her own commentary added.
