The anticipated next installment in the « Tekken » game franchise has been unveiled with a trailer as part of Sony’s latest State of Play showcase.
« Tekken » 8 is officially in development and it will be hitting the PlayStation 5 platform in the near future. The first teaser for a next-generation « Tekken » game was showcased at the EVO 2022 tournament in August, but it only revealed a brief look at Kazuya Mishima, the anti-hero lead of the long-running fighting game franchise. During the PlayStation State of Play showcase for 2022, Bandai Namco finally shared a meaty trailer that officially introduces « Tekken 8. »
From the looks of it, « Tekken 8 » appears to be leaps ahead of « Tekken 7 » in terms of photorealistic graphics. The short trailer shows the father-son duo of Kazuya Mishima and Jin Kazama duking it out in stormy weather. The skin textures have been rendered with great detail, the muscle tone is well-defined, and the surrounding elements like the gusts of winds and the falling raindrops also show impressive visual clarity.
