Tekken 8's director has unveiled a slew of new gamep𒀰lay details, including cross-play, rollback netc♊ode, and character numbers.
Tekkꦉen series creative lead Katsuhiro Har🌟ada has been a chatty Cathy on Twitter of late, answering a slate of questions from followers surrounding Tekken 8. Harada confirms that Tekken 8 will have cross-play, a feature he's been after since Tekken 7 was released but wasn't able to see the light of day.
Crossplay? Of course I will🍃.BTWWhen the previous generation consoles were released, I had already proposed crossplay between the two platformers. However, at that time, they were at odds with each other over their mutual🦂 interests (and P2P security issue) & repeatedly refused. //t.co/I8b38YfePh
This means Tekken 8 players across PC, PS5, and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Xbox Series X/S can punch each other to their delight. Keep in mind 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Bandai Namco's new fighting game won't be launching on last-gen consoles, so we won't find PS4 players going up against new-gen PS5 players🍌.
Elsewhere, Harada also confirmed rollback netcode, a staple of modern f🅠ighting games that helps negate input lag when playing online, would feature in Tekken 8. This is fantastic news to hardcore fighting game fans and Teꩲkken followers alike, but it's packaged with a message to "shut up and sit the hell down" from Harada to the Twitter user who asked the question.
already installed it, and it already has what you want. The reason WHY we don't make big announcements like cross-play is Cuz even if we make big announcements, pe𓄧ople like you will only say things like, "waaaa! That's normal in this day and age." So shut up & sit the hell down. //t.co/ZA1ZKMV9gC
Finally, Harada bragged that Tekken 8 would have more playable characters than "Capcom-san." The series lead probably refers to the forthcoming 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Street Fighter 6 here, which features an impressive 18 playable fighterꦰs at launch. If this claim holds up, Tekken 8 players could get ready to play as storied fighters from across the series' history.
I think it's a lot more than Capcom-san.Of course, character modeling, rigging, and costume desigꩵn are all new assets, so it's hard work.That's why we're trying to increase the number of launches. //t.co/d4BOZYxRBM
Tekkꦕen 8 was first teased with a chaotic and confusing trജailer, bundled in with a blink-and-you-miss-it appearance from Harada at EVO 2022, so these comments from Harada are really just par for the course at this point. A more recent trailer depicted the death of a long-standing character, and even Harada could🌠n't believe how dead Heihachi was.
