Tekken 8 Latest Trailer Confirms Lili’s Return
Tekken 8, the new entry in the fighting game series by Bandai Namco currently in development for PC and consoles, will see the return of yet another popular character, as revealed by a new trailer that was shared online.
The new trailer, which can be watched below, confirms that Lili will return in the eight main entry in the series, complete with a brand new costume that was designed by Lady Jasmin Darnell, as confirmed by Katsuhiro Harada on Twitter.
Lili returns to #TEKKEN8 !
Lili's new costume designed by Lady artist @JasminDarnell. I met her amazing talent in 2017& a few years later I ordered Lili's costume design from her. Plz visit her website (I was lucky enough to order a design from her before she became famous)! https://t.co/HVvl7d3cqm pic.twitter.com/NfFJRIbuEg— Katsuhiro Harada (@Harada_TEKKEN) April 23, 2023
Tekken 8 will see the return of plenty of characters that have become iconic since their introduction in the series, such as Kazuya Mishima, Nina Williams, and King, and others who have been absent from the series for a very long time, such as Jun Kazama. Characters who made their debut in Tekken 7 will also return in the new entry in the series, such as Leroy Smith, a controversial character who was considered to be vastly better than any other character in the seventh entry in the series when he first became available as DLC.
Alongside new gameplay mechanics which aim to improve the classic Tekken experience, Tekken 8 will bring some welcome improvements for online play. Earlier this month, Katsuhiro Harada confirmed that the game will support cross-platform play, also thanks to the fact that it is now easier to implement, as opposed to the Tekken 7 days when Sony and Microsoft were open to the idea, but didn't make it easy to implement for third-party developers, also due to security concerns.
Tekken 8 launches on a yet-to-be-confirmed release date on PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and Xbox Series S. You can learn more about the next entry in the series by checking out Kai's hands-on preview.
