Tekken 8 kicks off character trailer drops with Leo

TEKKEN 8 is heating up hump days. Every Wednesday between now and the game’s launch, Bandai Namco Entertainment America Inc. will be dropping new trailers for all characters from the 32-fighter roster who have yet to be featured in their own video.

Kicking this off in style is Leo, the fighter with an explosive Bajiquan fight style. The “Seeker of Truth” is Leo's lineage embodied, born to Niklas Kliesen, a father versed in martial arts, and Emma Kliesen, an inquisitively minded mother. Leo’s journey in TEKKEN 8 is a hunt for the truth behind the mysterious circumstances that led to Emma's death.

The game is slated for release on January 26, 2024, on PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam®.
