Tekken Roster: What characters can we expect?
It can be difficult to predict the Tekken lineup at times. This is especially true after Tekken 7 as many legacy characters such as Lei, Julia and Marduk were added as DLC. Because of this, anyone from Tekken’s past may be returning in Tekken 8 Heihachi Mishiyama is the only one who won’t be returning to Tekken 8 because he soaked in molten lava at Tekken 7’s end.
He’ll still probably be playable. You could bring him back to play in a dream mode, or for some other reason. NetherRealm already did this for The Joker, in Injustice 2.
In terms of actual predictions, only four characters have appeared in every major Tekken game, and two have already been confirmed (Paul Pheonix, Nina Williams), whereas Heihachi has been pronounced dead. Yoshimitsu is the only character left, and he has played a major role in Bandai Namco’s fighting games over many years. You can expect the strange ninja character to appear during Tekken 8’s lifetime.
can be used to analyze the statistics of Tekken 7, and determine which characters the players want to add to the game. Armor King is one of the most played online characters in Tekken. Other popular players include Dragunov, Feng, Dragunov, and Devil Jin. Leroy Smith, a fellow newcomer for Tekken 8, has already been announced before the release of the game. This could indicate that other popular characters will appear.
