Tekken 8 story centers on an ongoing clash
“With the disappearance of Heihachi Mishima, the all-out war between his Mishima Zaibatsu and the Kazuya Mishima-led G Corporation came to a close, as the latter seized victory due to its increased influence,” reads the game’s synopsis. “Even so, G Corp continued to wage war across the globe. Half a year later, peace is yet to return to the world. Various world leaders gathered at the behest of the United Nations, where they pledged to carry out sanctions against G Corp for as long as they refused disarmament. But then, Kazuya appeared as a representative of G Corp. He announced he would be rejecting their terms and immediately had his forces storm the assembly hall, turning it into a sea of flames along with the rest of New York.”
Tekken 8 is set to release on January 26, 2024 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. A demo is out now for the PlayStation 5 and will be available on the Xbox Series X|S and PC next week.
