Nina's back in Tekken 8, and plenty has changed.

As part of the Tekken World Tour 2022 Global Finals, Tekken 8 game director Kohei"Nakatsu" Ikeda and executive director Katsuhiro Harada gave a keynote on the upcoming game's fighting mechanics. Bandai Namco also took the opportunity to show a new trailer featuring returning character Nina Williams, no long dressed in the bridal gown that was her default outfit in Tekken 7 and instead wearing an outfit more like something Ada Wong would rock in a Resident Evil game.

Rage has been part of the series since Tekken 6, where it activated when fighters were low on health and boosted their damage. Tekken 7 added Rage Arts, powerful attacks that could only be activated while Raging, and Rage Drives, more powerful versions of regular attacks. While the Rage Drives have been ditched in Tekken 8, the system still exists, and Rage Arts cause more damage the more hurt you are when you activate them.

The Heat System lets fighters power up for a short time, entering a state in which they're covered in blue fire and have their specialties enhanced. Examples given included Marshall Law's nunchaku attacks getting stronger, and King's run becoming a Power Crush. While in the heat state, attacks cause chip damage even if blocked , and two special actions are available.

Nina Williams, the great deadliest assassin will be in Tekken 8 🎮.

Haven't played tekken in a while but I'm hyped for this. The render looks great. The effects could be better if toned down but over all it looks nice!

I have not played Tekken since Tekken Tag, I hope the new battle system is not as complicated as it sounds or at least I hope it is easy for a new player to pick up and then have depth to it for hardcore players

Can’t wait for a new Tekken!!!

Tekken 8 is looking pretty great in UE5!
