Tekken 8 Might Have a Hackerman Problem

Tekken can't catch a break, huh? When Bandai Namco aren't making some questionable things themselves, the outside forces are the ones that come knocking.

This time, a significant amount of users have reported that their ranks have been reset after playing a certain person, but it can also end up with you losing the player stats entirely and having your name forcibly changed.

The hacker's Tekken ID is 4y6g-RHni-6N6E, with their region being set to America. However, it seems like you can no longer find it in the game, so perhaps he was banned?

Regardless, exploits like this are rarely found by just one person, since people who do look for hacks and exploits, tend to be parts of communities that revolve around this. As a player, there's not much you can do. We'll have to wait for Bandai Namco to acknowledge this exploit, and patch it out as soon as possible.
