Bandai Namco has released a gameplay trailer for the latest Tekken 8 character joining the roster, and it’s Fahkumram – but there’s a little more, this time.
The trailer also shows Armor King, you see, another fighter being teased for Tekken 8. Fahkumram will officially hit the game on July 10th, but you can get him 72-hours early if you’re a Season 2 Character & Stage Pass and Season 2 Character Pass holder, starting from 7th July 2025.
Fahkumram joins the likes of Anna Williams who also joined the roster recently, and the game is fantastic already, so more fighters is just more reason to play. Obviously the trailer is cool, showing off how he fights, but if the comment section is anything to go by, people are more excited to see Armor King in action.
