Tekken 8’s release is almost upon us, and to help draw up hype, Bandai Namco has released Tekken 8’s intro movie, featuring some gorgeous cinematics. That’s not all; they’ve also revealed when we can expect to see the first DLC fighter!

Tekken 8 Intro Movie

Wow, talk about epic! However, if you played the demo, then you’d probably know to expect that already!\

But that’s not the only thing for Bandai to reveal either. If you stuck around until the end of the video, you might have noticed a release roadmap for DLC being announced, with Eddy, Tekken 8’s first DLC figure dropping this Spring!

Looks like one character will drop per season, so we’ll have something to look forward to throughout the entire year. Though I suppose the bigger question is, who will be the other DLC fighters? We already know the full roster, so plenty of other characters have been left out. Of course, there could be more new ones, too, not to mention potential crossover characters like Tekken 7 had. 

Who do you hope we’ll see arrive in Season 1? Think we’ll get any surprise crossovers, or will that be saved for another season instead? Let us know!

Tekken 8 officially launches on January 26 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
