After the latest Tekken game which is released in 2015, the players and the fans of the series started to ask the question “Will there be a Tekken 8?”.
The latest game of the series, Tekken 7, was a great success. The latest game of the series, published on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC platforms, received an average score of 82 over Metacritic, approaching the success of the series’s favorite game, Tekken 3. Some of the players who follow the series also follow the same type of game, Mortal Kombat. Mortal Kombat’s last game did not get good grades from the players, although received good grades from critics, and the eyes turned to the Tekken side. Will the game series, especially loved by console players, come to light with a new game after the release of Mortal Kombat 11?
Will there be a new Tekken game “Tekken 8”?
There will of course be a new Tekken game in the future. The creators of Tekken will not leave their “Tekken” rights behind and will release the Tekken 8 game, some rumors that the game has started to be developed.
Although the developer company avoids questions about Tekken 8, the developer of the game, Katsuhiro Harada, stated in the following tweet that he is in the plans for the future of the series last April.
Katsuhiro Harada:
“Since I can no longer fly around the world, I have time to write a new title planning sheet & design document. Of course I’m also thinking about what to do with the new plan of “TEKKEN World Tour” and TEKKEN Series with many staff.”
Is the game Tekken 8 officially confirmed?
Everything is just a rumor right now, nothing about the game has been officially confirmed. Perhaps the next game maybe Tekken 3 Remake.
Tekken players tasted the impressive story as well as the action of the game. The dramatic story of Tekken will continue in the 8th game of the series.
What will be the storyline of Tekken 8?
As there is no clue about the game yet, what we have to say now is only guesses. In the new game, perhaps we can see that the secret curtains in the game have disappeared. We can testify that Asuka learned about the connection between Jin and Jun. Ling may learn that Jin has a demon inside him and we can see how she reacts to this.
The devil genes things may end before the players are bored. In addition to unraveling the secrets in the game, we can also see changes in the game’s storytelling technique, because the storytelling technique in the old Tekken games is liked more than the players rather than the storytelling technique of the 7th game.
When will Tekken 8 come out?
Due to the fact that there is no official explanation and study news about the game, we cannot give a clear date, but when we evaluate the gap between the release dates of the main games, we can see a new Tekken game until 2022. Against to some predictions, we do not think that the game will be released in 2021 with the delays caused by the pandemic all over the world and we can see Tekken 8 towards the middle of 2022.
What platforms will Tekken 8 be on?
We can not share an official detail about the game yet, but we can make some predictions when we look before the series. The game also released on the PC platform with the 7th game. We also think that with the release of new consoles, Tekken 8 will debut on Xbox Series X, Playstation 5, Xbox, Playstation 4, PC, and Nintendo Switch platforms.
