New Heat System adds depth
Visually stunning presentation
Accessible to newcomers and veterans
Tekken 8 is a fighting game that builds on the solid foundation of its predecessors, introducing a fast-paced, aggressive combat system while remaining accessible to newcomers. Critics have praised its new mechanics, including the Heat System, and its visually impressive presentation. However, some have noted drawbacks, such as a lackluster story mode and occasional issues with online connectivity. The game's balance between old and new elements resonated well with veteran players and first-time fighters.
