Tekken 8 beta testing has begun. Lobbies, battles, characters, and much more about the gameplay

News

Translated with AI from the Russian original.

The closed beta test for Tekken 8 has launched on XSX/XSS, PS5, and PC (Steam) and will run until October 23, 2023.

Unfortunately, there is no longer a chance to join. The publisher recently sent out codes to those who registered, and it seems the participant pool is now closed. Bandai Namco recently stated that it would distribute around 182,000 codes.

The goal of the beta test is to check the network infrastructure of Tekken 8. The publisher wants to make sure that the netcode and servers work flawlessly across all configurations, including cross-platform play. Another important part of the beta will be the Tekken Fight Lounge – a lobby where players can interact with each other. One of the videos below covers this feature.

Tekken 8 will be released on January 26, 2024, so the developers have time to make adjustments. Some changes compared to the gameplay shown so far are still possible.
