TEKKEN 8, will be playable to selected players on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC with a Closed Network Test (CNT) that will start on 21st July 2023.
Developed by Bandai Namco Studio Inc., TEKKEN 8 promises to be the most visually stunning TEKKEN title yet and comes along with major new changes to combat, with a new “aggressive” combat system that encourages an offense-first play style, rewarding players who stay on the attack while offering spectacular plays. With the upcoming CNT, players will have a chance to experience this new philosophy and play a part in helping influence key game mechanics and features coming to TEKKEN 8.
The TEKKEN 8 CNT will feature online head-to-head “Ranked matches” with cross-platform matchmaking. Selected players will be able to pick from 16 characters including Jin, Kazuya, Paul, Law, King, Lars, Jack 8, Xiaoyu, Nina, Leroy, Lili, Asuka, Hwoarang, Bryan and the newly announced Claudio. There will be five stages available, Urban Square, Yakushima, Rebel Hangar, Sanctum, and Arena.
The CNT will take place across two different sessions, with a Week 1 CNT only on PlayStation 5 and Week 2 CNT available for all three platforms, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC. A subscription to Xbox Live Gold or PlayStation Plus is not required to participate. Participants to the CNT will be selected on a first come, first serve basis.
