One of the biggest changes with Tekken 8 update 1.05 are changes to the Heat system, with the ‘wall crush’ effect from a Heat Dash no longer available to reduce the overly offensive nature of the move. In addition, not all throws are now homing; regular throws are, but command throws won’t track.
New items added to the TEKKEN SHOP
- New costume packs “Dangerous Grappler Pack” and “Wonderful Wrestler Pack” will be available for all playable characters.
- A legacy costume for “Asuka” will be available.
- One free avatar customization item.
Functional improvements, Bug fixes
- Optimized the PC performance measurement process conducted during the initial launch and when resetting “Graphics Settings” (Steam version only).
- Added a feature that automatically lowers the “Graphics Settings” for subsequent matches if the processing load exceeds a certain threshold during online battles (Steam version only).
- Improved the “PRACTICE” mode by temporarily saving the settings for “Punishment Training” and the practice mode “Defense.” When playing again with the same character, the previous settings will be retained.
- Other miscellaneous improvements and bug fixes were implemented.
