<p>The new Tekken announcement features a new roadmap, a second DLC character, and free content for players. The announcements have Tekken 8 users excited to experience the latest free stages, game modes, and other exciting features.&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="https://en.bandainamcoent.eu/tekken/tekken-8" data-type="link" data-id="https://en.bandainamcoent.eu/tekken/tekken-8" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">Bandai Namco</a> has ascertained the re-introduction of Lidia Sobieska in the game, who was featured in the earlier version of Tekken. The roadmap they shared shows that Tekken 8 will introduce Photo Mode, Seaside Resort Stage, and a new story mode chapter later in the fall.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Tekken 8 fanatics on X reacted to the new roadmap and scheduled updates with rather mixed emotions. Most Tekken 8 players expressed a lack of enthusiasm, citing the need to reintroduce Waffle House as a stage in Tekken 8.&nbsp;</p>
<p>A player aired his excitement for the new stage but downplayed the re-introduction of Lidia, stating the game already has five butch female players.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Tekken 8 has had huge success this year since its launch back in January. The franchise sold over 2 million copies in under three weeks, quickly overshadowing its predecessors. Despite this massive success, the game has also received its fair share of scrutiny from players.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Tekken fans have publicly shown discontent, claiming the game has been heavily monetized. Tekken 8 integrated several monetization features within the game, including a Fight Pass and several paid character cosmetics, among others. Fans have reacted negatively, leading to a bad score of “Mostly Negative” on Steam user reviews.</p>
