Bandai Namco Entertainment has released a new patch for Tekken 8, although as with the previous update, there’s no major balance changes due to the ongoing Tekken World Tour. However, there’s a couple of interesting additions, including a new costume for Devil Jin, a character win rate data option allowing you to see how you perform against the cast (handy for determining which matchups you need to learn), and some hitbox adjustments.

Tekken 8 was released for PS5, PC, and Xbox Series X/S in January 2024, and continues the long-running feud between Jin Kazama and Kazuya Mishima, the latter having plunged the world into chaos in his quest for global domination. In terms of mechanics, Tekken 8 adds the Heat system, which can be activated once per round and gives your character access to new moves and inflicts chip damage. Tekken 8 is currently in its second season, with its next DLC fighter arriving next month in the form of Armor King.
