Tekken 8 - Shaheen

The Tekken 8 hype continues with Bandai Namco releasing a brand new character trailer, this time for Shaheen. As one of the newer fighters in the series, he debuted in Tekken 7 and wants to avenge his friend who died at the hands of G Corporation, headed by Kazuya Mishima. Check out his moves below.

Specializing in CQC, Shaheen is capable of quick strikes while also stomping and even surfing on his enemy’s body. His play style is about pokes and counter hits, capably punishing opponents who miss their attacks. Though lacking in many good low attacks (outside of the slides), Shaheen is easy for new players to pick up.

Tekken 8 launches on January 26th, 2024, for PS5, Xbox Series X/S and PC. A free demo is available for PS5 and launches for other platforms on December 21st. Check out the latest story trailer here, which sees other fights working with Jin Kazama to oppose Kazuya’s Mishima in the ultimate worldwide battle.
