Tekken 8 Roadmap for Free Updates for 2024:

Here’s what players can expect from the game this year in terms of free updates per Bandai Namco:

Spring
Balance adjustments

Summer
New stage: SEASIDE RESORT
New Photo Mode

Autumn
New chapter of Story Mode

And more!
Online Practice
Ghost vs. Ghost

Expect a balance patch for the season (Spring) to be released soon! Bandai Namco has announced that patch notes for version 1.04 will be available tomorrow, April 30, 2024.

Of course, this free update roadmap doesn’t include the paid character DLCs players are getting as well. Will we see a free character be released for the game? While chances are slim, Tekken franchise boss Katsuhiro Harada did tell us that they might consider it. For more on our chat with Harada, go read our full interview where we talk about pluggers, the in-game shop and more.
