Tekken 8 introduces the new Jin Kazama

After the recent reveal of Tekken 8 during the State of Play, Bandai Namco has been pushing the marketing campaign for the upcoming fighting game. We have seen gameplay trailers for Nina Williams and Kazuya Mishima that revealed their new movements and looks. The latest one could even transform into a devil of sorts to fight. Now it's the turn of another iconic fighter in the series, Jin Kazama, who shows his acrobatic movements and deadly strikes in a brand new video.

Not only the video reveals brand new movements and flashy combos, but also the eye-catching renewed art style of Tekken 8, which looks quite a bit more spectacular than its predecessor. Unfortunately, the fans have a long wait ahead until they can play the game. Bandai Namco is supposed to release it during this fiscal year, but that shouldn't happen anytime soon. Tekken 7 has been confirmed as part of the lineup for this year's EVO. The USA tournament is scheduled for August 4, (there will be another one in Japan much earlier), which points directly to a Tekken 8 release during the fall or even in early 2024.

At least, the current marketing policy for the game almost guarantees that we will see more gameplay videos in the coming months because there are quite a few fighters that have not been revealed yet.

Not only Tekken 8 will bring back the best fighting mechanics and a plethora of iconic and new fighters to choose from, but also the new World Tour mode, the Heat system, and the return of Jun Kazama to the franchise after 25 years away.
