Bandai Namco Announces New Tekken 8 DLC Character Lidia Sobieska and More Upcoming Content For Summer 2024

Bandai Namco has released their Tekken 8 EVO Japan 2024 trailer, showing everything coming to Tekken during the summer months of 2024. Fans can expect new modes, including Photo Mode, Online Practice, and a Ghost vs. Ghost mode.

Alongside these new modes comes the Seaside Resort stage, reminiscent of beach stages of Tekken’s past. Eddy Gordo will finally see his story expansion at some point in the coming months, and fans can expect several battle balancing patches as well.

The DLC character that will be added is Lidia Sobieska. The karateka and Tekken’s Prime Minister of Poland was initially introduced in Tekken 7 and is already making her return. She appears to be more determined than ever, though her place in the story is yet to be seen.

No definitive date has been given, but as stated above, all of these additions are expected to arrive in the summer months. You can watch the trailer for the full announcement below, via IGN:
