During today’s State of Play, Bandai Namco kicked off the show with a first look at Tekken 8, the next chapter in the long line of fighting games.
The short trailer shows Jin Kazama facing his father Kazuya Mishima on a rainy cliff. Jin managed to transform into his demon form as he flew, and after doing so he threw a huge punch. Severe storms raged behind the combatants during the battle, with hurricanes raging in the sea below.
a PlayStation Blog A post by Tekken’s executive producer Katsuhiro Harada confirms that all of the visual elements that appear in the trailer – “character models, backgrounds and effects” – are all in-game assets. The scene is taken from the game’s story mode, but the blog states that what you see is similar to what players will experience in the middle of the fight.
“While this was captured from story mode, it’s not a pre-rolled movie for the trailer, but a real-time movie,” Harada wrote, shooting at 60 frames per second, similar to how you’ll experience Game vs. Battle. mode “.
The reveal follows a small tease shown during Evo 2022 in August, in which a single image of Kazuya’s face was shown alongside the words “Get Ready” after the Tekken 7 Grand Finals.
Tekken 8 will arrive on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and PC via Steam in the future, as no specific release date or window has been revealed with the trailer. No other characters were revealed during the short trailer.
