Tekken 8’s Last Base Roster Character Is Reina, Who Fights Like A Mishima

The 32nd character in 3D fighting game Tekken 8 has been revealed.

During the Evo Tekken 8 Showcase that aired this morning on 13 November GMT+8, Bandai Namco has announced Reina, the Purple Lightning. She’s a 20-something girl fighter with a mean streak and a ton of familiar moves. Yes, she fights using a lot of Heihachi Mishima’s moves alongside Kazuya and perhaps Jin. Even her debut trailer teases potential story stuff with her and the surviving Mishimas.

Check out her moves and Rage Arts below, as well as her using Heihachi’s patented headbutt.

Tekken 8 will be out on 26 January for PC, Xbox Series, and PlayStation 5. For more on the Evo Tekken 8 Showcase, check out the highlights and high-level gameplay below:
