The rest of the names on the list, however, remain expendable and replaceable. Veteran staple characters such as Paul, Hwoarang, Jin, and Yoshimitsu among others are bound to make a return in Tekken 8, so we should expect no surprises on that front. Such an attitude gives hope that Tekken 8 will offer a more polished character roster than ever before, and we certainly hope that Namco Bandai will favor quality over quantity.

These attempts, however, speak volumes about Namco Bandai’s willingness to listen to their fans, make improvements and strive towards improving the series in any way possible.

Akuma’s and Negan’s bizarre and out-of-the-blue guest appearances in Tekken 7 has been met with mixed reception, and any subsequent attempts to patch up their errors have resulted in further character imbalances. Many fans share the sentiment that the newly-incorporated characters bring nothing extraordinary to the table, which can be attributed to their lack of originality, wit, or personality. At the same time, Namco Bandai has managed to strike a balance between following the main plotline while simultaneously giving some of the spotlight to Tekken’s secondary characters, many of whom have become the series’ staple fighters over the course of 20+ years. The conflict within the Mishima clan has always been the main hook of Tekken games, ever since its first installment back in 1994 on the legendary Playstation.

With Heihachi having been eliminated for good, and both Kazuya and Jin finally gaining full control over the Devil Gene, the stage is set for one of the fiercest battles the Tekken universe is yet to witness. Judging from Tekken 7’s epilogue described above, it’s evident that the next game’s story will be centered around the final generational battle of the Mishimas: Jin Kazama vs. Tekken 8 Story: The Fate of the Mishima Bloodline Suddenly, they’re joined by Jin, who reveals his intention to kill Kazuya and thereby bring a stop to the destructive conflict between the Mishima Zaibatsu and the infamous G Corporation. Stick around until the end credits wrap up and you’ll be greeted with a cutscene featuring Alisa, Leo, and Lars standing on top of a ruined building, lamenting the world’s fate upon Heihachi’s demise at the hands of Kazuya. The closest thing we’ve got to a trailer so far is Tekken 7’s secret ending, which can be seen by beating chapter 14 of the main story mode.

If you were to scour the internet in search of a trailer for Tekken’s next installment, you’d only stumble upon thousands upon thousands of fan-made trailers – a testament to the ever-growing restlessness of Tekken fans worldwide.

In short: take everything with a grain of salt. While some would be left discouraged by this challenge, here at Game Gavel we’ve decided to put on our detective hats and sniff out the answers for ourselves. Much to our dismay, so far Namco Bandai has been awfully silent on the topic of Tekken 8, so all we have to go by are rumors and speculations roaming the internet forums. To be perfectly frank, the more appropriate title would’ve been ‘Tekken 8: Just Rumors, Basically’, but we’re all about that clickbait, you know what’ I’m sayin’?
