Bandai Namco has pushed the newest update for Tekken 8, adding a meaty chunk of new content to the fighting game. Chief among them is new DLC fighter Lidia Sobieska, who has now become available in early access for owners of the Year 1 pass. For everyone else, she will be available to purchase starting July 25.
In addition to support being added in for Lidia, Tekken 8’s newest update has also added Seaside Resort, a new stage that is available for free to all players. Additionally, a photo mode has also been added for free. Beyond that, there are new items that are available for purchase in the in-game story, other improvements and bug fixes, and balancing changes for some characters. Check out the full patch notes below.
Tekken 8 is available on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. Bandai Namco recently announced that the villainous Heihachi Mishima will be rising from the grave as the game’s next DLC character this fall. Check out his announcement trailer through here.
