Bandai Namco is Working on a Bugfix Patch for Tekken 8

Bandai Namco’s Tekken team has identified several unintended changes that happened in the 1.03.01 Tekken 8 update. The team is working to fix them, and the patch will be released as soon as it’s ready.

Here are the bugs that are being looked at:

• Zafina

Due to animation data changes, back dash distance is shorter than expected.

• Tornado

The collision detection between characters and walls has been adjusted to address the issue of players slipping through opponents and whiffing when performing a Rage Art after executing a Tornado near a wall. However, this made certain existing combos inconsistent.

• Rage Art and Heat Burst

In specific situations, opponents are able to move during the time freeze animation before the activation of Rage Arts or Heat Bursts.

• Azucena "Espresso Agresión"

As a countermeasure against this attack, we initially implemented balancing adjustments in version 1.03.01 with the assumption of "evading sideways and then counterattacking." However, the current difficulty in executing counterattacks.

• Eddy "Heat Dash"

- The ability to activate Heat Dash despite whiffing in specific circumstances.

- The behavior of the opponent when Heat Dash is activated under certain circumstances and deviate from expectations.

• Eddy "Dash and Back Dash"

The occurrence of unintended dashes or back dashes.
