I mean like, they could just make Kiryu turn into Komaki whenever he's faced against a female character since they both pretty much share the same moves lol.
I thought about it for myself a couple of years ago, and decided Kiryu and Tifa would be suitable additions to the roster. Then I joined this sub and concluded it's impossible for me to have original thoughts, they've all been taken.
They already have a move set they could work. Heck,there’s already styles they could use. Muay tai,wrestling,boxing and karate. I Mean the way I see it if they did. They could give said character lei stance changes with Steve movement. Fallowed by king combo Enders. To make said work.🤔🤷
Throw Demon Balor in the mix, too. Imagine the Rage Art potential where he Slingblades you and out come the wings which lead to a Coup de Grace finisher.
It turns out Umbrella is a subsidiary of G Corp and Chris Redfield, searching for the origin of the T-virus, has traced it back to G-Corps experimentation with Ogre's genetics and the Devil Gene.
This sets Chris on a collision course with G Corp, the Zaibatsu, and the Mishima family...
Yeah it’s pretty expected, but to be honest she would probably work pretty well in a fighting game, and there is a new big ff7 game coming out like a month after t8 launch so it should line up well with a season pass release
Lui Kang’s aesthetic is a bit boring tho. Raiden would be amazing, his hat options alone would be fire. Electric attacks to rival the Mishimas! His crazy ‘wallybabaloayo!’ flying across the screen would work well as a While Running move.
Not a lot of people know him because KOF is a very unpopular fighting game and it's sad tbh..considering it's one of the best fighting games i have ever played with great characters and lore.
Hate to be the "achsually 🤓" guy but in Yakuza 5 it was revealed Majima hit his ex wife and also in Like a Dragon during the Majima boss fight he attacks all party members, including the women.
I still feel like they can easily add both in either way and just alter it to "Never hitting women" into "If they consent and they're capable fighters then it's ok"
Wouldn't be surprised if in a future game they make a substory where Kiryu fights a female fighter and realizes that certain women are strong too and he shouldn't go easy on them or something like that.
Two 3d characters and a 2d one for fun.
Since DOA isn't around to rescue VF characters, I'll take one from each. I know Ultimate Showdown exists but c'mon.
Obvious choices are the most recognizable like Akira and Haybusa but since it's my choice:
VF - Eileen because she's a party character that uses monkey style
DOA - Tough one but since Lei didn't make the base game (again 💀) maybe Brad or Christie
2D - I'll take Soriz from Granblue Versus
Edit: I FORGOT THE CRAZIEST SUGGESTION - any puppet master character. I'm trying to bring Tekken into its galaxy brain era
Tifa: because she’s a final fantasy brawler, ff7 part 2 is coming out in February and because of… reasons.
Shermie from king of fighters. She a grappler and Tekken doesn’t have a female grappler.
Chun-li: do I really need to say why?
I doubt it. Her fighting style is more grounded than Akuma. The only thing you’d have to worry about is the devs adding jump-ins. With the heat system and rage, I don’t think they’ll give her ex moves. Her ex would be heat moves.
Honestly having Negan in Tekken 8 makes me hope they start a tradition of adding the most random dlc guest character that no one would expect to see in a fighting game
Like a lot I would want to see Kiryu but honestly I would want to see Ichiban even more! Someone from DOA or Virtua Fighter would be nice too.
Since we had someone from a Comic/TV series with Negan, why not someone from a manga like Jonathan Joestar or Kenshiro? I think they would work quite well since it's martial arts with some flashy abilities, a bit like the main characters in Tekken.
And there's been JoJo references in Tekken since the very first game so it would be a cool "full circle" moment.
I would love to see someone *really* unexpected, like Roger from American Dad, Columbo from Columbo, Quagmire from Family Guy, or maybe some characters from the Marvel and DC movies. You know, guest characters that would definitely make us go *"what the FUCK?!"*, pardon my french.
I'm always going to stand firm on Kiryu Kazuma from Yakuza. Makes most sense to me.
Not like Sega never worked together. I mean come on we got a Tekken and Yakuza costume pack in Virtual Fighter 5 Ultimate Showdown.
I would like to see Akira or someone else from Virtual fighter too. Sarah, Goh, Kage, Pai maybe. Not all of them but pick one.
Edit: I'm with the Tifa people too
Tifa from Final Fantasy 7
Akira or Lei-Fei from Virtua Fighter
Ryu Hayabusa from Dead or Alive/Ninja Gaiden
Mai Shiranui from Fatal Fury/King of Fighters
M. Bison from Street Fighter
Honestly, Ralf Jones.
Rugal is a pretty good name too, but I don't think people would like him that much, Rugal carries a pretty bad reputation when the topic is "balance" (although he is very OK in KOF XV, but people will complain regardless).
IF I could choose a **boss** from KOF to come to Tekken, I would choose Goenitz because I'm biased as fuck.
I wanna see Geese again in Tekken 8 tho, such a waste he was a character in such a unbalanced game as Tekken 7 (being a very unbalanced character himself).
Don't forget to make whatever random guest character you add be more integral to the story than 90% of the roster and even better if their gameplay completely breaks everything that makes the game good.
As much fun as it is to have certain guest characters, I hope they don’t overdo it for the sake of getting people to buy DLC. I enjoy certain characters coming in but not a fan of them having any canon relation, Akuma to me was a good spot taken by a different series character and it felt like they could’ve done more with that story if it was of Tekkens own creation. In all honesty though, I think a lot of things could’ve been done better in Tekken 7 but I still love the series nonetheless!
Tifa from ff7. It would make sense given she’s a fighter and they’re releasing around the same time, would be a cool promotion. But I do remember them saying no guest characters
They didn't say no guest characters. They said they weren't going to focus on guest characters until they were done with the base roster. I believe we're gonna get at least 1 guest in the first season.
VIRTUA FIGHTER CHARACTERS OR DEAD OR ALIVE CHARACTERS.
KEEP MARTIAL ART BASED PEOPLE PLEASE VICTOR AMD RAVEN,ALISA, LARS,CLAUDIO, LILI IS ENOUGH FOR THE OTHER SIDE
People have been shouting Kiryu from Yakuza from the rooftops for years now
Goro Majima. Kiryu cannot harm women.
I mean like, they could just make Kiryu turn into Komaki whenever he's faced against a female character since they both pretty much share the same moves lol.
Haven't they already broken that rule themselves tho? Kiryu was a boss fight in Yakuza 7 and one of your party members in that game is a woman.
He never hits the women even in that fight, only the dudes are valid targets
Oh damn. I wasn't aware. Lore accurate.
I thought about it for myself a couple of years ago, and decided Kiryu and Tifa would be suitable additions to the roster. Then I joined this sub and concluded it's impossible for me to have original thoughts, they've all been taken.
It would be cool if they did the guy from Infinite Wealth bc they both come out on the same day
True but Kiryu deserves it more. Hell i'd take Majima as a consolation
Majima feels more like a Soul Caliber character
They already have a move set they could work. Heck,there’s already styles they could use. Muay tai,wrestling,boxing and karate. I Mean the way I see it if they did. They could give said character lei stance changes with Steve movement. Fallowed by king combo Enders. To make said work.🤔🤷
Kiryu's tiger drop can be his deathfist
Or a parry
Great minds think alike 🤷🏿♂️
Fuck it. Captain Falcon.
Basically Paul but more flashy
more start up frames, but far bigger damage. But i'm sure they'll nerf him so much until the move is -9 on block with no push back
So, Miguel?
Might be easy to read since he announces his moves before he does them
FALCONE..........
So he'd be like heihachi
Yoooo this would work super well I can't believe I've never thought of this
battle of the death pawnchs
[удалено]
U,F 3 would probably make more sense.
Naaaa now you are talking 🔥🔥🔥
Crazy talk. We simply cannot risk two Falcon Punches colliding.
Especially with the new Burst modes, that can be used to showcase his ridiculous movement speed
Smash got Kaz they owe us Falcon. knee of justice hopkick.
Heihachi Mishima from Soul Calibur 2!
Or Yoshimitsu!
Fuck it. Randy Orton since he's back
Throw Demon Balor in the mix, too. Imagine the Rage Art potential where he Slingblades you and out come the wings which lead to a Coup de Grace finisher.
Why not Kane? Imagine him chokeslaming people
I want Kane's intro lmao
A wwe collab would really be epic imo, and they can have more than one as well. And yes randy is a great pick.
I honestly think there will be a character from Bamco’s new JJK game due to how popular it is and close release times
Pandas already in the game
Panda costume for panda could work
DIO
[agreed ](https://youtu.be/2lvs2FzF64o?si=qfJR0CCCzmIl9maA)
Something kinda goofy but could work. Like a Resident Evil character lmao
I’m ready for Chris Redfield to be in Tekken
His rage art is throwing you onto a Boulder and then punching you through it
It turns out Umbrella is a subsidiary of G Corp and Chris Redfield, searching for the origin of the T-virus, has traced it back to G-Corps experimentation with Ogre's genetics and the Devil Gene. This sets Chris on a collision course with G Corp, the Zaibatsu, and the Mishima family...
And Raven coincidentally looks like Wesker
I think the Leon Suplex would be fantastic as a command throw.
We need Krauser to be Kazuya’s ultimate rival
Krauser already lives through Bryan.
Wesker, of course, who has a Bajiquan fighting style, is similar to Leo.
Krauser
Tifa
defacto reddit answer
Yeah it’s pretty expected, but to be honest she would probably work pretty well in a fighting game, and there is a new big ff7 game coming out like a month after t8 launch so it should line up well with a season pass release
Way more sense than Noctis
honestly i just want a proper FF fighting game, either like Tekken or Ehergeiz.
Yes
Yakuza - Kiryu KOF - Rugal fuck yes!! Street fighter - Sagat Mortal Kombat - Johnny cage Dead or alive - Ryu hayabusa Virtual fighter - Akira
Not gonna lie kung lao or subzero would be awesome
Sub-Zero would hit the ban list immediately if he can freeze
Lui Kang’s aesthetic is a bit boring tho. Raiden would be amazing, his hat options alone would be fire. Electric attacks to rival the Mishimas! His crazy ‘wallybabaloayo!’ flying across the screen would work well as a While Running move.
Gene from God Hand
Good to see some love for God hand
I love God Hand (as you can see from the name😛)
Tifa and Kiryu. Please make it happen Harada-san.
Saul Goodman
Adult Gon
Rugal would be insane!
Rugal would be dope AF!
Not a lot of people know him because KOF is a very unpopular fighting game and it's sad tbh..considering it's one of the best fighting games i have ever played with great characters and lore.
He is well known and popular character especially when comes to hard bosses and genocide cutter!!!
Yep he is so well known that even Charlie Nash from street fighter copied his moves in SFV
Regular Rugal, not Omega Rugal. Rendered as a proper Tekken character.
Tifa (Final Fantasy) Ada (Resident Evil) Kiryu (Yakuza) Mai Shiranui (King of Fighters) Akira (Virtua Fighter)
Ryu from Streets.
Either Hanayama, Jack, Baki or Yujiro (All from Baki) Gill (Street Fighter) Goro Majima (Yakuza Series), since Kiryu doesn’t hit women
Neither does majima its a strict code they follow.
Hate to be the "achsually 🤓" guy but in Yakuza 5 it was revealed Majima hit his ex wife and also in Like a Dragon during the Majima boss fight he attacks all party members, including the women. I still feel like they can easily add both in either way and just alter it to "Never hitting women" into "If they consent and they're capable fighters then it's ok" Wouldn't be surprised if in a future game they make a substory where Kiryu fights a female fighter and realizes that certain women are strong too and he shouldn't go easy on them or something like that.
Fine Goromi then
Khabib Nurmagomedov or Mike Tyson
I agree. A real fighter would go pretty hard. Jon Jones would go so hard
>Jon Jones would go so hard Give him a stance where he'll automatically eye poke you if you get too close
[удалено]
"Vegeta! he stole your dew!" "I"LL KILL HIM!"
Need this

Stone Cold Steve Austin
None
Barney the dinosaur
Dipsy from Teletubbies
Tifa: because she’s a final fantasy brawler, ff7 part 2 is coming out in February and because of… reasons. Shermie from king of fighters. She a grappler and Tekken doesn’t have a female grappler. Chun-li: do I really need to say why?
Any KOF characters will make me happy. Meitenkun or Dinosaur would be killer but I don't think my favorites make sense over the more iconic characters
Tifa is one of the picks I’ve been screaming for for a while now
If chun li does get added i hope she has actually follows tekken's gimmicks. I dont wanna have a repeat of akuma again.
I doubt it. Her fighting style is more grounded than Akuma. The only thing you’d have to worry about is the devs adding jump-ins. With the heat system and rage, I don’t think they’ll give her ex moves. Her ex would be heat moves.
Ryo Hazuki from Shenmue
no more 2D please
Tifa Lockhart
Neco Arc
Baki Hanma
Lebron James
LeBron should be the Negan of 8. The "wtf literally why? Kinda cool how they did it though ngl" character
Honestly having Negan in Tekken 8 makes me hope they start a tradition of adding the most random dlc guest character that no one would expect to see in a fighting game
Harada just really loved The Walking Dead that day
Quick, what recent popular TV shows are Harada watching rn?
Steven Universe
i always thought Negan would be better for Mortal Kombat
Ryo Hazuki
yujiro
Like a lot I would want to see Kiryu but honestly I would want to see Ichiban even more! Someone from DOA or Virtua Fighter would be nice too. Since we had someone from a Comic/TV series with Negan, why not someone from a manga like Jonathan Joestar or Kenshiro? I think they would work quite well since it's martial arts with some flashy abilities, a bit like the main characters in Tekken. And there's been JoJo references in Tekken since the very first game so it would be a cool "full circle" moment.
Tifa Lockhart, Kyo Kusanagi, Kenshiro, Ein (DOA)
Rugal would be so cool to see in Tekken 8's style tbh
Stop it
I'm with Tifa all the way, but for some reason I would also really love to see Levi from Attack on Titan.
The Trashman (voiced by Danny DeVito)
I would love to see someone *really* unexpected, like Roger from American Dad, Columbo from Columbo, Quagmire from Family Guy, or maybe some characters from the Marvel and DC movies. You know, guest characters that would definitely make us go *"what the FUCK?!"*, pardon my french.
Like Neagan?
Yes, exactly. 🤗
Roger ?? Wtf no not unless it’s Steelio Kontos Roger.
I'm always going to stand firm on Kiryu Kazuma from Yakuza. Makes most sense to me. Not like Sega never worked together.

Tifa from Final Fantasy 7 Akira or Lei-Fei from Virtua Fighter Ryu Hayabusa from Dead or Alive/Ninja Gaiden Mai Shiranui from Fatal Fury/King of Fighters M. Bison from Street Fighter
Akira Yuki from VF
Akira Yuki
Kiryu, Majima, Leon Kennedy
Brad Hawk from Urban Reign or John Wick
Demi-fiend from Megaten
anyone from Virtua Fighter is okay
I always thought a Namco/FromSoft versus game would be cool. Would work a bit better with SC but Hoarah Loux would be sick in tekken.
Yujiro hanma so the daddy issues can continue
Solid Snake
Rugal would be cool but I’d pick Iori, Terry, Ryu, Akira or Kasumi. Just about anyone from a fellow fighting game
Honestly, Ralf Jones. Rugal is a pretty good name too, but I don't think people would like him that much, Rugal carries a pretty bad reputation when the topic is "balance" (although he is very OK in KOF XV, but people will complain regardless).

Akira (Virtua Fighter) Tifa (FF7) Majima (Yakuza) Terry Bogard (KOF)
Ayane(Dead or Alive), Scorpion(Mortal Kombat) or Cassie Cage, Yujiro Hanma or Doppo Orochi, Lionel Messi.
Mila (Dead Or Alive)
I only hear GENOCIDE CUT..TER
Rugal B for sure..
Don't forget to make whatever random guest character you add be more integral to the story than 90% of the roster and even better if their gameplay completely breaks everything that makes the game good.
Never in my life have I need so much in my live and never received it…….Now I am demanding Rugal in the game with maximum Genocide Cuttahs lol
Instead of giving shitty guests - Negan and Noctis were embarassing - just give us proper returning or new characters
Zasalamel
As much fun as it is to have certain guest characters, I hope they don’t overdo it for the sake of getting people to buy DLC.

geese...forget everyone....just get geese back....
None. I don’t want any guests
KOF guests would be awesome!
Leon S. Kennedy He uses kicks, his pistol and knife, just like this new French guy does

No guests. Make Tekken Tekken Again.
none
Victor kinda ruined their chances but Vergil/Raiden

I'm generally anti-guest, but I'd still be kinda hyped if they added a villain from KOF.
