Tekken 8 Reveals Gameplay for 2 More Characters
Bandai Namco just dropped two new gameplay trailers for Tekken 8, featuring the returning characters Panda and Alisa Bosconovitch. Both Panda and Alisa will be playable in the game's launch roster, and fans are eager to see how these classic characters have evolved. Panda first appeared in Tekken 3 as a palette swap for another bear fighter, Kuma. Since then, she's been a part of every Tekken game, earning her own character slot from Tekken Tag Tournament 2 onward. Alisa, an android resembling Dr. Bosconovitch's late daughter, made her debut in Tekken 6. Both characters have ties to Ling Xiaoyu in non-canon material. The trailers showcase the fighting styles of Panda and Alisa. Panda shares a moveset with Kuma, emphasizing strikes from a distance due to their longer limbs. Panda incorporates some moves from her friend Ling Xiaoyu, with a cute pre-match animation. On the other hand, Alisa, a robotic fighter, wields chainsaws, jetpack wings, and even her own head. Her unique moves, including a comedic yet powerful Rage Art finishing move, have excited fans. Here's the confirmed list of Tekken 8 characters:
