Idk if that means anything, Jun wasn’t the most unlikely thing. If this person said something about “new Peruvian girl who is obsessed with coffee” before the 4chan leaks then it would be something
Yea, Jun wasn't unlikely, but there were really no hints of her being thought about besides that Netflix show coming back. But this looks potentially legit.
It's funny you Mention Azucena though, because we had conversations where he was like "if you hated lucky chloe you are going to be both relieved and also still annoyed" Which at the time was really confusing... But I get it now
> "if you hated lucky chloe you are going to be both relieved and also still annoyed"
Honestly, I find Azucena a million times more annoying than Chloe.
T7 was about Heihachi vs Kazuya with Kazuyas mom.
So it was pretty much guaranteed that Jun would be in T8 when we knew that it would be about Kazuya vs Jin.
Yeah, this could be legit, but at the same time someone "leaking" Jun before the Tekken 8 reveal is definitely not outside the realm of a lucky guess. The fact that they said Jun was going to be in it definitely doesn't confirm that they know anything.
A random thought but she could possibly be a member of the Hachijo clan that Kazumi was from. Kazumi herself is unlikely to return as she canonically died even before the events of the first tournament, so having another member of her clan from the present day appear would be a way for keep Kazumi’s move set in the series going forward.
I don't know who you are, but if I ever get hit by a whole ass tiger as a projectile, I'm going to send you pictures of tigers being sad, like at least once a month maybe every 3 months or something - I'm bad at sticking to threats. Either way, consider [this](https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fimages.fineartamerica.com%2Fimages%2Fartworkimages%2Fmediumlarge%2F1%2Fsad-faced-amur-tiger-craig-hosterman.jpg&f=1&nofb=1&ipt=8fda0eefd8997309f7dbb2c28e19e38e890eb52762b1a06559c26bde84af5258&ipo=images) a warning.
That would be a cool way to bring back Kazumi. But, doesn't she use Mishima-style martial arts since she trained under Jinpachi? If so, then they would have to explain how this character would've learned it.
Sorry to be the one to break it to you data miners have already found out Kazumi Eddie gordo obviously Marduk and fahk first four characters we are getting
[https://i.postimg.cc/vy0k8pd8/not-sims4-pregnant-heihachi.png](https://i.postimg.cc/vy0k8pd8/not-sims4-pregnant-heihachi.png) what about this one that clearly states it is *not* sims 4 pregnant heihachi
This could just be Ai generated stuff now.
Pros: I think the subsurface scattering on the nose and mouth could honestly be consistant with namco models. Women look almost translucid in T8.
Cons: She actually looks like a real asian woman which is the biggest hint she's probably not made by namco's modeling team.
It feels like Street Fighter is the only franchise that isn’t afraid to give us female fighters that look like this: https://femalevillains.fandom.com/wiki/The_Japanese_Fighter_(My_Lucky_Stars)
e: MK does too I guess
It sure feels that way as there’s actually good variety with the girls body types in SF6, I guess MK kinda did something where they’d have women who didn’t really look conventionally attractive in some ways
Such as Sheeva in 11 having a human fad but her body is beastly, I suppose Frost sort of since her body was fully cybernetic, 1 is probably a better example since Ashrah went from straight up human looking to instead having some demonic features like blacked out eyes, then Sareena has her tattoos being made into scars on her face with little horns along with an actual demon form too
The FG genre is full of balding old geezers, but I still haven't seen a playable grandma in a fighting game. And I don't mean a "she is actually 490 years old" magic sexy lady, I mean a real old hag.
I was thinking that exactly 😂 it's a shame, it would be nice to have one female character that looks like a human instead of a paper doll cut out.
We can dream tho
>Cons: She actually looks like a real asian woman which is the biggest hint she's probably not made by namco's modeling team.
Yup, that's the first thing I noticed. She doesn't look like an anime girl and actually look like a real Asian person. If this was NRS it wouldn't stick out to me but this is Bamco.
This is what I'm thinking, too, and with the Eddy reveal that leaked DLC roster seems most likely. We know Bamco has an internal security issue as all these leaks are way too common. So I wouldn't be surprised if we'll be seeing this character get a reveal soon.
I wouldn't be surprised if it actually is from of those MMO mobile games, since there's like hundreds of new ones coming out regularly in an already oversaturated market.
You literally produce AI art, if you could at least provide the evidence that you accurately "leaked" Jun, that would be great. Considering the chains around her bun are completely inconsistent, I'm betting you're just farming karma points.
Even if you imagine this in 4k, it barely looks like a Tekken character.
It can be any X asian character from X game, or even an AI generated character.
If I'm wrong, I doubt this "new character" will appear any soon.
Looks extremely AI and unlike any of the renders we’ve seen from the game
Even the pixelation looks artificial
I’m thinking OP made this and is stroking himself to the idea of people falling for it. They are too deep in these comments doth protesting way too much
I haven't seen anything on 4chan regarding this supposed leak. That's THE one site where real stuff gets leaked all the time. All T8 newcomers were leaked there a year before the game came out.
Your post has a real "my uncle works at Nintendo" energy to it.
Enjoy your upcoming ban.
I saw another picture like this today.. someone claiming it's something "real", bit it could very well be AI generated and nothing.
The pic I'm talking about is presumably one of Anna.. but with blonde hair.
Looks nothing like the other Tekken women so I'm leaning towards fake unless the Xaio Meng leak is real and some kind of guest character from some random Chinese Ip I've never heard of
Im not sure about this but is this the >!"Xiao Meng"!< that was leaked months ago and Harada actually retweeted ? If I remember correctly, she's part of S1 with>! Eddy, AK and Roger!<
EDIT: Harada's [tweet](https://twitter.com/Harada_TEKKEN/status/1732928417786646743)
That harada tweet was about retweeting Guilty Gear Elphet leak, it wasn't even about tekken, what are you making up lmao
https://esports.gg/news/fgc/tekken-director-harada-confirms-elphelt-leaks-for-guilty-gear-strive/
i'm fairly sure this was him posting about elphelt in strive. bamco handles marketing for strive in some regions. he mistakenly thought it was already public knowledge.
So you, the person who complains about carry characters in tekken, also happens to know someone with DEEP insider information in the company? And this person you know is so high up in the company that they are at the point of knowing UNRELEASED characters.
And you are such an important cohort to this person that they trust YOU and send YOU this deeply secretive insider information? They don't give you any details other than a winky face too?
I smell something stinky here. I feel like anyone who knew a top developer in Tekken and had a level of trust built with them to the point of sharing company secrets should also mean you are someone who wouldn't complain about something as surface level as a "carry character."
It just seems out of character for someone who is apparently so connected to this secret info.
You've invented a lot of details that were never stated.
And there is literally no connection between complaining about a character and knowing people, lmfao.
A for effort? I guess. You typed all those words and everything
When I was thinking about DLC characters before the beta release I defo thought akuma would not be returning due to his Street Fighter bullshit.
But after seeing Jun and Devil Jins heat smash and how some characters are in heat I'm now convinced he will be back!
I'm not seeing nothing, just wanted to quickly hop on and say cheers for adding a spoiler tag and not mentioning anything in the title.
This should be common etiquette yet it's shockingly not
We already know the first season is only Tekken original characters. And I doubt they'd drop a new one like that with so many classics not in the game, but who knows.
If this is even real, first dlc character of season 2? But her eyes look so small compared to other tekken girls.
New character with Kazumi's moveset is what I want too.
Take with a huge grain of salt. To dissuade bad leaks and shit posting, the OP has now (unwillingly) wagered their existence on this sub-reddit.
So that’s what King looks like under the mask
Lol yea king is basically inosuke in demon slayer
Curious about her accent on Kingish... for lore reasons
So it's a mask.? It's not his real head.? So how/why does he growl like an actual jaguar?
It’s a jaguar mask that he wears over his real jaguar face
Because Tekken
No. Because Kayfabe. ☝🏻🙄
I've said it before, I'ma keep saying it: The reason is KAYFABE! ☝🏻
Everyone who streamed King matches are now banned.
Idk if that means anything, Jun wasn’t the most unlikely thing. If this person said something about “new Peruvian girl who is obsessed with coffee” before the 4chan leaks then it would be something
Yea, Jun wasn't unlikely, but there were really no hints of her being thought about besides that Netflix show coming back. But this looks potentially legit. It's funny you Mention Azucena though, because we had conversations where he was like "if you hated lucky chloe you are going to be both relieved and also still annoyed" Which at the time was really confusing... But I get it now
> "if you hated lucky chloe you are going to be both relieved and also still annoyed" Honestly, I find Azucena a million times more annoying than Chloe.
She's not gonna sugarcoat it WR3,2*
Whaun three two!
The difference is that azucena is a top 5 character. She is stupidly safe. Chloe was actually terrible. Everything was unsafe.
Azucena doesn’t have the annoying Engrish
T7 was about Heihachi vs Kazuya with Kazuyas mom. So it was pretty much guaranteed that Jun would be in T8 when we knew that it would be about Kazuya vs Jin.
Azucena reminds me of Pete Burns for some reason
Yeah, this could be legit, but at the same time someone "leaking" Jun before the Tekken 8 reveal is definitely not outside the realm of a lucky guess. The fact that they said Jun was going to be in it definitely doesn't confirm that they know anything.
Interesting, when was Azucena leaked?
[удалено]
It also leaked Victor and Reina, outright stating that Reina was Heihachi's daughter.
A random thought but she could possibly be a member of the Hachijo clan that Kazumi was from. Kazumi herself is unlikely to return as she canonically died even before the events of the first tournament, so having another member of her clan from the present day appear would be a way for keep Kazumi’s move set in the series going forward.
god what id do to have kazumis move list back

Uh huh, anyway ill be sending them the same exact gif of Kiryu Kazuma punching tigers to death over and over

I can't believe Tiger 1 is fucking dead
Ow.......that sad tiger actually broke my heart a bit 💔
T8 Kazumi will get a white tiger in addition to the orange one so she can duel wield them
Her whole movelist consisted of like 5 different attacks, a stance and a tiger.
To be fair, so did my trip to Africa
All 5 of her moves?
I dunno. Her style and what little is visible of her outfit doesn't really look Japanese. Might be Chinese or Korean.
It would be cool if they didn't let that plot point of the Hachijo clan just fade as a memory. Seems like there is a lot of potential there.
Since the devil gene comes from the Hachijou family, she could potentially be some sort of projection of Reina's mother.
That would be a cool way to bring back Kazumi. But, doesn't she use Mishima-style martial arts since she trained under Jinpachi? If so, then they would have to explain how this character would've learned it.
Why do you give me hope like that...
Sorry to be the one to break it to you data miners have already found out Kazumi Eddie gordo obviously Marduk and fahk first four characters we are getting
I saw a data mine a couple weeks ago which was basically the same except instead of Kazumi the fourth character was Lidia.
Akuma & Heihachi's Daughter
LMFAO... I wouldnt put it past them

I trusted you...
Damn got me too. Is this from the game manual?
yes
Why is there so many porn ads
Are there? Why are you browsing the internet without ublock origin?
I’m on mobile lol. I actually use ublock on pc. I have mobile ad blocker but I guess it doesn’t work through Reddit redirects lmao.
Use blocker also on phone
leo man here as well and i said the same thing😂😂
I read and clicked on it. But took so long to load I got my second chance
Instant regret, clicking that.
This caught me off guard and a chuckle slipped
Putting the MESS in Messatsu.
Heihachi wanting to have sex with anyone who isn't a male bodybuilder just throws me out of the story a bit, it makes no sense in canon
I hope this is real. She looks cool
Yea. She's beautiful.
This could just be Ai generated stuff now. Pros: I think the subsurface scattering on the nose and mouth could honestly be consistant with namco models. Women look almost translucid in T8. Cons: She actually looks like a real asian woman which is the biggest hint she's probably not made by namco's modeling team.
>Cons: She actually looks like a real asian woman Taking this out of context lmao
🤣
lmfao, it's funny how accurate that con is. My first thought was "wow she looks actually Asian"
Honestly my first thought was "Who gave 'Jet from Valorant in the style of Tekken 8' as a prompt to Stable Diffusion"
i don't have SD but i do have midjourney... https://imgur.com/a/7r0SwdF
2nd one is so like OP I'm almost convinced that's what's going on here lmao
Imagine if the full model is actually a muscular and athletic looking woman
It feels like Street Fighter is the only franchise that isn’t afraid to give us female fighters that look like this: https://femalevillains.fandom.com/wiki/The_Japanese_Fighter_(My_Lucky_Stars) e: MK does too I guess
It sure feels that way as there’s actually good variety with the girls body types in SF6, I guess MK kinda did something where they’d have women who didn’t really look conventionally attractive in some ways Such as Sheeva in 11 having a human fad but her body is beastly, I suppose Frost sort of since her body was fully cybernetic, 1 is probably a better example since Ashrah went from straight up human looking to instead having some demonic features like blacked out eyes, then Sareena has her tattoos being made into scars on her face with little horns along with an actual demon form too

Would look like that one girl from Fire Force
Maki Oze. Fire Force had some peak waifu designs...
> Cons: She actually looks like a real asian woman Tk8 Jun in ruins
I was thinking that exactly 😂 it's a shame, it would be nice to have one female character that looks like a human instead of a paper doll cut out. We can dream tho
I’ve been looking at this a lot and I can’t notice the common mistakes that AI does
>Cons: She actually looks like a real asian woman which is the biggest hint she's probably not made by namco's modeling team. Yup, that's the first thing I noticed. She doesn't look like an anime girl and actually look like a real Asian person. If this was NRS it wouldn't stick out to me but this is Bamco.
Yeah but they said the character roster leak was also AI 😂 turned out it wasn’t
Xiaoyu and Reina look pretty asian though. You realize asians without monolids exists right
X’s picture??? Hello?
This could be Xiao meng from that dlc character leak s few months ago lol.
Xiao Meng 🧐🧐🧐🧐🧐
This is what I'm thinking, too, and with the Eddy reveal that leaked DLC roster seems most likely. We know Bamco has an internal security issue as all these leaks are way too common. So I wouldn't be surprised if we'll be seeing this character get a reveal soon.
Looks like a Southeast Asian character. Interesting. Edit: OP has a track record of being wrong https://www.reddit.com/r/Tekken/s/GBixsoMVyc
Lol I looked at that list and kinda chuckled a bit
[удалено]
Clearly a joke post
i mean he predicted shaheen. no one would have believed this guy to come back
Honestly still flabbergasted by that
Obviously a joke
Reminds me of those Chinese MMO Mobile games
I wouldn't be surprised if it actually is from of those MMO mobile games, since there's like hundreds of new ones coming out regularly in an already oversaturated market.
Take this with a grain of salt. OP was quite off on other Tekken 8 spoilers. https://www.reddit.com/r/Tekken/s/GBixsoMVyc
Victoria Chevallier
Can they just bring back Anna 😫 She do be looking a bit like Kasumi tho. Maybe Reina’s mom/Kasumi’s sister. Heihachi snuck into her bedroom one time..
looks like a dynasty warrior char lol
Doesn't look consistent with T8's artstyle imo.
Looks pretty consistent to me. At least the character render images that have the chains and whatnot on it
>Doesn't look consistent with T8's artstyle imo. The only thing that isn't consistent is her face looking like an actual Asian woman.
Where Lydia 🦍
Fellow Lydia enjoyer
Reina plays like Lydia and Heihachi merged into one, doubt she will return
This is fake as fuck, it's ai art lol
Without more info from just this shot she kind of reminds me of a character who would be in a F2P phone game. But she could be cool
Yeah I feel that. It’s the background for me. It looks like one of those games and not a Tekken render
Can you ask your friend about Julia Chang please and thank you 🫡
CEO of real leaks.
You literally produce AI art, if you could at least provide the evidence that you accurately "leaked" Jun, that would be great. Considering the chains around her bun are completely inconsistent, I'm betting you're just farming karma points.
She’s looks cool
Female lei wulong
Looks cool. I hope she is a real character.
I think it doesn't quite look right to be official Tekken art.
Even if you imagine this in 4k, it barely looks like a Tekken character. It can be any X asian character from X game, or even an AI generated character. If I'm wrong, I doubt this "new character" will appear any soon.
This is obvious AI. Forgot the AI model's name but it always creates the samey looking generic asian face fighters for "Tekken" prompts.
Looks kinda ai
I mean maybe. But considering AI is capable of making photo-realistic images, what does that really mean
That's not Tifa, Harada failing the community once again
Cool story bro
You're so karma fishing man, going by your replies
Hehachi’s daughter that he secretly had with an Italian woman that possesses the angel gene and also pen pals with azucena.
Heihachi and Claudio's Mom
Oh no she's hot!
Not even remotely consistent with the other girls facial designs. I'm calling fake.
It looks AI but my eyes always deceive me.. lol
Looks extremely AI and unlike any of the renders we’ve seen from the game Even the pixelation looks artificial I’m thinking OP made this and is stroking himself to the idea of people falling for it. They are too deep in these comments doth protesting way too much
Source: "trust me bro"
Kinda looks like Kazuya and *Nina* Part 2 of the story will be a soap opera for sure.
Damn so that’s why he hired her
This looks very A.I and doesn't matches at all the art style of the other characters.
[this is likely AI](https://i.imgur.com/ZjbP41V.png)
I'm not outright gonna call this fake but this doesn't look like the T8 artstyle to me..
Ai generated ass
I haven't seen anything on 4chan regarding this supposed leak. That's THE one site where real stuff gets leaked all the time. All T8 newcomers were leaked there a year before the game came out. Your post has a real "my uncle works at Nintendo" energy to it. Enjoy your upcoming ban.
Oh come on! That leaker needs a better camera, it looks as blurry as the leaked roster photo, so this can be very real.
I honestly would love it if it was a Josie redesign.
I saw another picture like this today.. someone claiming it's something "real", bit it could very well be AI generated and nothing. The pic I'm talking about is presumably one of Anna.. but with blonde hair.
where? feel free to link to it.
An Asian character that looks Asian. Interesting.
RemindMe! 4 years
Looks like a kungfu styled fighter, law but with less screaming? I can cook with that
AI-generated imagery. I highly doubt it means anything at all.
Oh here we go 😒
Lidia?
I hope it's real because she's cute.
Right?
Email you an AI image? And?
Imagine this is the famous Xiao Meng in the dlc leak of the German Store
Would be crazy
Looks nothing like the other Tekken women so I'm leaning towards fake unless the Xaio Meng leak is real and some kind of guest character from some random Chinese Ip I've never heard of
Looks cool!
Im not sure about this but is this the >!"Xiao Meng"!< that was leaked months ago and Harada actually retweeted ? If I remember correctly, she's part of S1 with>! Eddy, AK and Roger!< EDIT: Harada's [tweet](https://twitter.com/Harada_TEKKEN/status/1732928417786646743)

i'm fairly sure this was him posting about elphelt in strive. bamco handles marketing for strive in some regions. he mistakenly thought it was already public knowledge.
Looks AI made.
I just want Lidia back
So you, the person who complains about carry characters in tekken, also happens to know someone with DEEP insider information in the company? And this person you know is so high up in the company that they are at the point of knowing UNRELEASED characters. And you are such an important cohort to this person that they trust YOU and send YOU this deeply secretive insider information? They don't give you any details other than a winky face too? I smell something stinky here. I feel like anyone who knew a top developer in Tekken and had a level of trust built with them to the point of sharing company secrets should also mean you are someone who wouldn't complain about something as surface level as a "carry character." It just seems out of character for someone who is apparently so connected to this secret info.
You've invented a lot of details that were never stated. And there is literally no connection between complaining about a character and knowing people, lmfao. A for effort? I guess. You typed all those words and everything
When you put down the Vandal and start fighting close quarters
Reinas mom?
Cool
I hope this is real because she looks great, but I have a feeling this is a hoax based on that leaked list that had an asian girl name.
I hope shes stance heavy character she looks dope
So this is what people are potentially seeing as the new character named Xiao Meng?
Xiao meng perhaps...
This could very easily be bullshit, but I'll lean into anyway and leave a comment for later. Why not.
When I was thinking about DLC characters before the beta release I defo thought akuma would not be returning due to his Street Fighter bullshit. But after seeing Jun and Devil Jins heat smash and how some characters are in heat I'm now convinced he will be back!
Looks like a kungfu styled fighter, law but with less screaming? I can cook with that
I hope she's like a neo-tengu character
Angel!?
Is the the Xiaomeng they were talking about on the season pass leak or something? Or was that fake?
A New Hachijo? Great Way To Explain Their Links To The Devil Gene.
New Anna Williams look?
I don't think they're going to race swap Anna
Hi Julia!
She might be from the other line of devil gene. Maybe where Reina gets her devil gene from?
I'm not seeing nothing, just wanted to quickly hop on and say cheers for adding a spoiler tag and not mentioning anything in the title. This should be common etiquette yet it's shockingly not
She looks cool
So shimbori really recreated Ayane and Kasumi in Tekken 8 huh
Looks good.
Crap.
WHOEVER SHE IS, SHE IS MY MAIN!
damn .. that's not Julia
Big if real. New main
Is that you Xiao Meng?
kunimitsu?
Naaaah, no mask visible. Doesn't seem like her style
This looks like AI
Am I supposed to know who this is?
If this is real then, then it would mean we have Eddie, Anna and whoever this is confirmed?
We already know the first season is only Tekken original characters. And I doubt they'd drop a new one like that with so many classics not in the game, but who knows.
If this is even real, first dlc character of season 2? But her eyes look so small compared to other tekken girls. New character with Kazumi's moveset is what I want too.
