Tekken 8 is now available for PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S judging by the reviews, It prevails. I’m looking forward to playing the game this weekend, especially taking French swordsman Victor Chevalier to the training lab. The squad is quite diverse with some familiar faces and new blood vie to become the King of the Iron Fist. However, fans don’t seem entirely happy with what’s in store for them. Instead, people beg for it Final Fantasy VIITifa Lockhart is set to be added to the game, and game producer Katsuhiro Harada has responded.
Over on X/Twitter the words “Tifa” And “Tekken” were trending on January 26th, Tekken 8is the start day. This is the Internet, and wherever there is a popular figure on the Internet, There is rule 34So scroll through these topics at your own risk. Suffice it to say, when the game’s servers were turned on: Stans bombed the former bird app with posts, begging Bandai Namco To Pwetty, please add Tifa to the game.
This is a request though goes back almost a decadeit is not unfounded. Tekken has had guest characters since then 1997s Tekken 3. These fighters usually come from other franchises, such as: Final Fantasy XVIt’s night And The walking deadThis is Neganboth of which appeared as DLC in Tekken 7. Considering this is a series about kicking and punching your opponent, and Final Fantasy VIISince the game’s raven-haired heroine is all about kicking and punching, it makes perfect sense for her to join in Tekken 8‘s roster if something like that were to happen. Unfortunately it’s not like that. Katsuhiro HaradaAfter probably getting fed up with all the chatter online, he has finally spoken out about Bandai Namco’s current position on guest characters.
“We all know she’s attractive and I understand that,” Harada said to a fan begging for Tifa. “But we haven’t decided on guest characters etc.”
As the saying goes: never say never. Street fighterAkuma was one of them Tekken 7is one of the most popular crossover fighters appearing in a number of tournaments throughout 2023. Since Harada and the team are currently undecided about which guest characters will be included in the newest fighter, there’s always the possibility that fighters from other games will show up. Just don’t expect guest characters to come first Harada said in 2023.
