Tekken 8 Evolves Core Fighting Systems To Bring The Heat Preview

Our handson preview showed that Tekken 8 s gameplay mechanics look to open up a new layer of depth for the series triedandtrue 3D fighting. Tekken 7 is a pillar of the fighting game community for a reason. It s the most refined that the 3D fighter has ever beenand there s nothing quite like some goodass Tekken. Even so, there s always room to evolve. After I got a few hours of handson time with a preview build of Tekken 8, it s clear how it can take the franchise in a bold new direction. That freshness is the core gameplay mechanics, specifically the Heat System and Special Style, as well as smaller changes that reward aggressive play.
