If the UK's physical games chart is anything to go by, Tekken 8 looks to be a hit for Bandai Namco. It's debuted in the number one spot, with nearly two thirds of copies sold being the PS5 version. According to GamesIndustry's Christopher Dring, the game's physical launch sales are "more than double" those of Street Fighter 6 — though this doesn't account for digital at all. Still, it's clearly a very healthy launch weekend for Tekken.
Bandai Namco has also revealed that the Tekken 8 Season 1 second character will be Lidia Sobieska! Check out the Season 1 trailer.
Bandai Namco Entertainment has revealed the Tekken 8 roadmap for free updates coming this 2024 and it includes a free new map and more.
Fahad from eXputer: "Bandai Namco has been banning excessive rage quitters in Tekken 8, but their solution doesn't punish those who don't rage quit as often."
This "issue" has been blown way out of proportions. I have never seen someone rage quit on anyone that i've watched and i personally have maybe close to 200h in myself and this has never happened to me. Sure if they can make it like MK great but this is such a none issue imho.
Your experience is nothing compared to the information they will have on disconnects, so if they say it is an issue you will accept that it is an issue that needs to be dealt with.
I'm ok with banning serial pluggers in ranked matches. But what I would like to see happen instead is to put people with higher than acceptable disconnect percentages into matches with other pluggers until they stop disconnecting. Let the pluggers play together in separate lobbies until they learn to lose gracefully.
As well as the measures they have implemented why can't they just seamlessly change the inputs from player to AI player so the player can continue the match and still recieve the match points.
its soo good, i played it for 5h straight yesterday haha
this one is way better then 7 and am enjoying it way more then MK1 and SF6.
So good
Over 75% on PS5 is nuts. Given PS4 still has a lot of players whats the Xbox share 5%? It's no surprise they're trying to phase out physical release on there no one's buying them
