Tekken is one of the biggest fighting game franchises out there, and is also home to one of the most bitter rivalries in gaming history. Heihachi Mishima and his son Kazuya are two of the biggest haters out there, with the two engaging in regular bouts of throwing each other off of cliffs. However, the latter punching the former in the chest and stopping his heart entirely at the end of Tekken 7 - and then going on to throw him into an active volcano - convinced some that Heihachi was dead for good in Tekken 8.
Unfortunately for Kazuya, Heihachi didn't kick the bucket after all, as it was announced during this year's EVO tournament that the character will be added to Tekken 8 as DLC at some point this Autumn. It was a bit of a surprise, considering director and series creator Katsuhiro Harada has maintained for a while that he was super dead this time, but it was a hype moment that made the entire stadium at EVO erupt in joy.
Making a Tekken character should be about expressing creativity, not make or break on whether they get made for real.
However, it doesn't seem like everyone...
