Tekken 8 (PS5) Review
Dataminer Shootmans took toX/Twitterand shared a thread claiming to reveal the names of the DLC characters. The dataminer went through the game files and said that the first character that might be included in the DLC is Craig Marduk fromTekken 4. This is due to the mention of Australia in the game files.
Shootmans also added that some characters fromTekken 7are returning in the DLC, namely Fahkumram and Lidia. Fahkumram is alleged to join the roster as there is a mention of a“Muay Thai fighter from Thailand,”which undoubtedly is him. The game files also mention a fighter from Poland who Shootmans says“is 100% Lidia,”even though they did not find a fighting style.

Given that no other veteran character is from Poland, it is speculated that the files reference Lidia. However, players are advised to take this leak with a grain of salt and wait for confirmation from Bandai Namco. The dataminer also added that Anna Williams and Armored King might also be coming to the game with Season 2, but nothing can be said for certain now.
Fan Reactions to Tekken 8 DLC Characters Leak
The leak has surely given fans a lot to think about the characters coming inTekken 8DLC Season 1, and while players are excited to know that these popular characters might return in the game, some are still skeptical about this.
Players think that since the characters’ names are in-game files, it is possible that the characters were planned to come to the base game but were left out for DLC. However, some added that since all the leaked characters are fromTekken 7, there are chances that these could be leftover code.
Players were also upset seeing that there is no mention of some of their favorite characters, as one fan said,“No Kunimitsu no buy,”and another added that they are pissed because of this choice of characters for the DLC. Some players are also looking forward to seeing Josie in the game.
