Bandai Namco Games has announced that its Tekken 8 demo is now available for the PS5, giving you a chance to sample the upcoming fighting game sequel ahead of its release early next year.
The Tekken 8 demo will feature four playable characters – Kazuya, Jin, Nina, and Paul – and allows you to sample Chapter 1 of the game’s story mode, a partial Versus mode, the Arcade Quest, and a selection of stages. Unlike the recent beta, there’s no online play available here, so you won’t be able to rank up your fighter.
Tekken 8 is scheduled for release on January 26, 2024 for PS5, PC, and Xbox Series X/S. The game introduces a brand new system known as Heat, which allows players to access a more powerful version of their character once per round, giving them access to new and powerful techniques.
