One of the great surprises of Tekken 7 It was the introduction of characters from other sagas turned fighters, some of the most prominent being Geese Howardthe charismatic face of evil from SNK; Noctis, the heir to the throne of Lucis in Final Fantasy XV; either Negan, the charismatic villain of The Walking Dead and leader of the Saviors. Now, Katsuhiro Harada, head of the saga, has explained what will happen to this class of guests in Tekken 8.
As Bandai Namco announces classic characters from the series returning to Tekken 8, players are already asking for guest fighters for the title. After some other message received, Harada has decided to announce that “there is a character that should be done before guest characters”so it is better not to expect this class of fighters for now.
There is a character that should be made before the guest character, so please forget about the guest character for now. https://t.co/YkjpZv9Zzu

It is unknown if Harada wanted to anticipate that this character that should arrive in Tekken 8 will be a completely new one or someone from the past who has not yet confirmed his return. However, the tweet has already started a thread of theories about expected returns. Curiously, AlfaBetaJuega had the opportunity to ask Harada and Michael Murray, producer of the series, which guest character they would introduce into the saga if they had complete freedom.
Tekken 8 is approaching its release
Tekken 8, que will run at 4K resolution moving at native 60 FPS without upscaling, at least in the PlayStation 5 version, will focus on the aggressiveness of the fighters, this time rewarding the most offensive players. The game, which has a launch window, will also come to Xbox Series and PC.
