Tekken 8 reveals gameplay focused on Kazuya’s moves

A new gameplay trailer for Tekken 8 has been released, showing Kazuya Mishima in action.

The trailer shows the veteran of the series facing his sun, Jin Kazama, in a setting similar to New York’s Times Square. The video also shows Kazuya transforming into his *text muted* form and using his Killer Beam move on Jin.

While it’s not yet known how Kazuya will transform into *text muted*, it’s likely related to the game’s Heat Mode feature, where players can activate a special state for their character for a brief period, gaining new abilities.

The new trailer can be seen below:

Kazuya is one of the most popular characters in the Tekken series and has appeared in every game except Tekken 3 (which marked the debut of his son Jin, who has since become the main protagonist of the series).

He initially appeared to be the hero of the first game, but it was soon revealed that Kazuya was actually one of the series’ main villains, with plans for world domination.
