In essence, the core issue is that many players perceive Tekken 8’s fresh content as a refurbished assortment of discarded concepts from its predecessor, Tekken 7. A user succinctly expressed this sentiment by stating, “Tekken 8 feels like a mobile game,” implying a focus on monetization over innovation. This perception is widespread among comments, with fans expressing disappointment that Bandai Namco appears to have relied heavily on past titles for inspiration instead of delivering the groundbreaking advancements they anticipate in their cherished franchise. It’s no wonder some feel deceived when they discover that much of what they’re buying is simply repackaged content from Tekken 7. Shiny doesn’t always mean well-crafted, and it seems not all new costumes were given thoughtful attention either.
