TEKKEN 8 Version 2.01 Now Live, Patch Notes

  

The latest patch for TEKKEN 8 (V2.01) is now live and introduces major balance adjustments and fixes to address recent battle-related issues. After carefully considering community feedback, a variety of improvements were made to certain mechanics to improve the effectiveness of defense, sidestepping, and toning down certain aspects of Heat techniques and new moves recently added in Season 2. The TEKKEN Shop has also been updated with new items such as the Vigilante Tech Pack and Cyber Phantom Pack.
 

Bandai Namco's Kohei Ikeda (Nakatsu) had this to say on Twitter: "We released the balance adjustment patch (V2.01) today. Due to the time required for battle-related adjustments, some items could not be included in this update, but we plan to address them gradually in the balance updates scheduled for June and July." Nakatsu continued, "We will continue to review feedback from the community, discuss and evaluate it within the team, and remain committed to improving the overall gameplay experience for TEKKEN 8."
 

TEKKEN 8 (V2.01) PATCH NOTES
 





 
 

 
As a competitive TEKKEN 8 player, I can confidently say that the overall game balance, side-stepping effectiveness against Heat moves, and defensive options have been vastly improved with Bandai Namco's recent updates, especially V2.01. Side-stepping feels great in the new update! Stay tuned on The Fighters Generation for more TEKKEN 8 news.
