Heihachi Mishima makes his return to TEKKEN 8, pushing the game’s roster to 35 characters. He is the third DLC of the Character Year 1 Pass, joining Eddy and Lidia. The King of Iron Fist, seemingly dead at the end of TEKKEN 7, has managed to cheat death and is back with an evolved style, learned thanks to his time with the Tekken monks.
In addition to Heihachi, a new stage, the GENMAJI TEMPLE, is also available for individual purchase. But that’s not all, as the 1.08 version of the game comes with new free content; a new Story Mode, Unforgotten Echoes, has been added. Happening in parallel of the TEKKEN 8 main story, it follows Eddy, Lidia and Heihachi and gives more details about how Heihachi managed to survive his fate in TEKKEN 7. In this mode, Eddy, Lidia and Heihachi are playable even for players who don’t own the characters.
New features have also appeared, such as the much-requested possibility to put any character in the TEKKEN 8 main menu, or the possibility to practice online with friends in the TEKKEN Fight Lounge. A new TEKKEN Fight Pass is also available, including the collaboration shoe with NIKE. The Gentle Monster sunglasses for Kazuya are also available to be claimed in game for a limited time.
