With Kazuya’s gameplay being revealed last week, it was only natural that they would bring in his franchise rival in the form of Jin Kazama.
Just in, we have a new gameplay reveal for Jin, and to nobody’s surprise, it’s a showcase of him just beating down Kazuya’s ass. Check this out:
With Jin being the ‘Ryu’ of the Tekken franchise, we see that he has a lot of basic moves that have been with the character throughout the series. We know that other characters have been beefed up with weapons and Kazuya has an alternate demon version with long-range attacks, but it seems like Jin will be keeping things close-quarters.
Despite just relying on punches and kicks, it’s like they’ve taken the dial for special effects for his moves and cranked it up to eleven. I guess that’s what helps indicate that he has high damage output? I could be wrong.
Here’s the official overview for Tekken 8:
Developed by Bandai Namco Studios, Tekken 8 pushes the envelope for fighting games and takes full advantage of the power of the latest generation of consoles by creating one of the most visually stunning and immersive titles in the genre yet. Tekken 8 picks up after the gruesome battle that ended in Heihachi Mishima’s defeat, focusing on a new rivalry pitting father against son as Jin Kazama stands in defiance against Kazuya Mishima’s quest for world dominance.
As of now, Tekken 8 still has no release date.
