Tekken 8 Minor Update 2.000.003 Fixes Eddy Bug, May Patch Adjustments Preview Revealed
[summaraize]
Following the disastrous Season 2 patch for Tekken 8 where we saw a follow-up patch be released to help mitigate the backlash, Bandai Namco has released a minor patch for Tekken 8 today, which players will see as version 2.000.003 (2.00.003) to fix a specific issue.
This a smaller download compared to the other updates, and with good reason given this doesn’t bring any new content, but is more of an emergency patch to fix a gameplay-breaking change.
Tekken 8 Eddy Gordo vs. Nina Bug Fixed in Update Version 2.000.002
Patch Content
- Fixing the issue that during a match between Eddy and Nina, Eddy may move in front of his opponent immediately after the start of the match.
As far as we’re aware, that’s the only thing fixed in today’s patch per Bandai Namco. However, the developers aren’t done communicating wth just that. Expect the version 2.01 update to be released in mid-May, and will include balance adjustments.
May Ver. 2.01 Patch Planned Changes
- Aerial combo damage will be mitigated.
- Revision of the performance of Heat Burst, etc.
According to the devs, after the mid-May patch, they will continue to work on improving the performance of each character, and the situations where one-sided games tend to occur based on user feedback.
This is a solid first step, and we hope this somewhat lifts the community’s spirits.
