Casey Scheld2 weeks ago

Announced at EVO 2024 earlier today, the storied fighter Heihachi Mishima will make his way to Arika and Bandai Namco’s TEKKEN 8.

Originally labeled as “disappeared,” Heihachi Mishima utilizes the Mishima-Style Fighting Karate style that is best suited for aggressive play.

See Heihachi Mishima’s return with the TEKKEN 8 trailer below:

TEKKEN 8 is available for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Be sure to read our review of TEKKEN 8, which we gave a 90/100:

“TEKKEN 8 hits hard with what could quite possibly be the best TEKKEN entry to date. Fresher than newcomer Azucena’s signature coffee blend, this title does everything in its power to make this King of Iron Fist tournament worthy of all players.”
