Here’s ten minutes of Tekken 8 closed network test gameplay

Come for the fighting... leave if you're going to critique how bad we are at it.

The Tekken 8 closed network test kicked off late last week, and we’ve got some gameplay from it for to you check out.

We go through a bit of the tutorial — learning about the Heat Timer, Heat Smashes, and more — alongside one CPU fight and a King versus King online battle.

I’m not the best fighter out there, granted, but the video below will give you a taste of what to expect from Tekken 8 at the very least.

We don’t have a specific release date for Tekken 8 as yet, but the fighter is planned for a 2023 release on Windows PC, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X and PS5.

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
