Bandai Namco has revealed the plan of content support for the popular fighting game Tekken 8 for the second season.

Here's What We Know

Until the end of the summer, Tekken 8 fans are expecting several interesting activities and updates.

Patch 2.01 will be released on all platforms as early as May 13th, which will introduce Ghost Showdown mode and new paid in-game items in the shop, including Cyber Phantom Pack and Vigilante Tech Pack costumes.

Update 2.02 is scheduled for release on 3 June. The Japanese developers will launch a crossover with Karate Kid: Legends, which premieres on 30 May. Players will receive free hoodies for characters in the Tekken Shop, and there will also be a street arena with promotional banners for the film and paid classic costumes for Dragunov and Kuma.

Patch 2.03 will be released later this summer and will feature a collaboration with the Pac-Man franchise. The season pass will include a new arena and cosmetic item.

And even later, Tekken 8 will add a character named Fahkumram, who first appeared in the seventh instalment.

Tekken 8 is available on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series.
