The new Heihachi Mishima trailer has just dropped! Heihachi has returned from the depths of hell, emerging from the volcanic lava that failed to claim his life. The story will delve deeper into his survival. As a reminder, Heihachi is the most iconic character in the series, and his absence from Tekken 8's initial roster was a disappointment. As the father of Kazuya and grandfather of Jin, he is a master of Mishima-style Karate.
We can already see that the character has undergone a radical transformation, with a new move set that is more dynamic and aggressive, allowing for a multitude of devastating combos.
He will be available on September 30th in Early Access and a few days later as DLC. The update will likely include a new stage, Genmaji Temple, and an additional story mode featuring the newly added characters.
