Tekken 8 - Year 1 Final DLC Character Reveal

Between the upcoming Winter Update and the start of Season 2 in Spring 2025, Tekken 8 fans have a lot to look forward to. However, what about the final DLC character in the Year 1 Pass? Bandai Namco has confirmed their launch for this Winter, and, best of all, they’ll be revealed at The Game Awards on December 12th at 4:30 PST.

The Year 1 Pass has added three DLC characters after launching in January. Eddy Gordo arrived in April, followed by Lidia Sobieska in July and the infamous Heihachi Mishima in October. Balance updates, new stages, and features like Photo Mode have also been added for free.

Who could the final Year 1 character be? Is a character from another franchise possible, especially given Tekken 7’s use of Noctis from Final Fantasy 15 and Negan from The Walking Dead? Time will tell, so stay tuned for updates from The Game Awards next week.
