TEKKEN 8 is adding Eddy Gordo, the first playable DLC character coming to the game since its launch in January.

Players who purchased the TEKKEN 8 Deluxe Edition, Ultimate Edition or Deluxe Edition Upgrade Pack already have access to Eddy Gordo.

Watch Eddy in Action

Eddy Gordo, known as the “Indomitable Flash,” continues his journey of redemption in TEKKEN 8. As a skilled capoeira user, Eddy puts himself on a grueling training regimen and hones his moves to new levels of proficiency to exact his revenge against Kazuya Mishima.

Eddy Gordo’s debut expands the game’s 32-character launch roster, which includes many fan-favourites, the surprise return of Jun Kazama, and three all-new additions with Azucena, Victor Chevalier and Reina. Eddy is the first character of the TEKKEN 8 Season Pass that will include 3 other characters to be revealed later.

TEKKEN 8 is available now on PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam®. Developed by Bandai Namco Studios Inc., TEKKEN 8 harnesses Unreal® Engine 5 to bring new weight and atmosphere to the game’s battles, with every character remodelled in stunning detail and new dynamic and destructible environments added to the game.
