It's the best Tekken game to Date, as someone that loves all types of fighting games this is the last beacon of 3d fighting games and it is the best one to date. It is full of features that people who enjoy fighting games need. It has Crossplay, decent online, jukebox (the entire tekken soundrack from 1 up till this one), great graphics and a decent story (especially if you like Jin).
Truly an Upgrade for Tekken in a good way.

It is the first time i have ever pre-ordered a game. Let me tell you, i am not disappointed! The movement is MUCH more fluid than the SF6 and the MK1. So if you have any hesitations, choose this game!
- Fluid movement
- Unlimited/no skill ceileng
- My Geforce GTX 1660 Ti can play this game on max settings EFFORTLESSLY
- STEEP learning curve
- Needs a very big time investment to be competent
- Bandai Namco chose to keep the rage arts...

For now I'm dissappointed as I cannot play Tekken 8 even though I bought it and activated it... I hope the issue with the launching of the game on my computer will be resolved soon ! (EU-Polaris error)
- I bought the game, activated it and the game does not launch. I have reinstalled the game and up until now, I'm waiting

The game could be fun but it's full of cheater, rage quitters, macro users and Namco apparently doesn't do anything to fight this plague.
There are too much broken OP characters and you will practically see only them in rank spamming broken moves.
There are too much particle effects hurting your eyes.
The game is a mess with full screen moves, repeatedly 50/50 forced and the heat system is just a raw kind of bar system in its native form, practically tekken has become an anime fighter.
I will change probably my review when they will release a patch fixing, all the bugs, broken characters and overall, punishing cheaters and pluggers.

I love all types of fighting games, but this one is the best I've ever played. TK8 has all the features we need. I really like the characters' costumes. If you wanna play a game with great graphics, an interesting story,... and have fun times with your friends, I recommend you buy it now.

I wanted a nice Tekken game, I got a Tekken but...
It's a good game with a few interesting features but at the same time, said features are so-so.
The Tekken ball mode is nothing new.
There is no Tekken Force mode.
Only three new characters.
Simply put, a price too high for not enough content, even with IG discount.
Edit: And now, they added a battlepass and microtransactions. Yep, it's trash.

- Gorgeous visuals
- Easy to combo your opponents
- Basically Tekken 7.5 in term of "new" things
- Less content than Tekken 7
- Battlepass and microtransactions

I haven't played Tekken in a while, but Tekken 8 is a great game. The controls are perfect, very addictive and many game modes. The graphics are stunning, as are each of the fighters on offer, with endless visual customization.
I recommend everyone to play.

Tekken 8: It's another Tekken, nothing special but if you love this saga you have to buy it!
I'm not a fan of the story/lore, but i love to fight against other players. I'm waiting for DLCs and new characters.
