New Tekken 8 Trailer Introduces Jun Kazama in Action

Bandai Namco has finally unveiled a gameplay trailer dedicated to perhaps the most intriguing member of the Tekken 8 roster.

Jun Kazama, the mother of Jin Kazama, last appeared as a playable character in Tekken Tag Tournament 2 in 2012.

A modernized iteration of Jun's fighting style is still based on Kazama Style Traditional Martial Arts, however, contains some surprises:

Tekken 8 is being developed for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. The team has kept the release date a secret, but the fighting game may go on sale as early as 2023. 

According to plans, Tekken 8 is now one of the publisher's most important games in development. The product is described as "to release in 2023 or later", which means it can be presented to the public in the fiscal year 2023, starting after March 31, 2023. Of course, this still leaves a chance for a release window in early 2024, as the fighting game is being developed on Unreal Engine 5 only for the latest generation of PlayStation and Xbox home consoles.
