A ton of Tekken 8 characters were confirmed in the title’s anticipated The Game Awards trailer, but some of the appearances were blink and you’ll miss it affairs. In the aftermath of Geoff Keighley’s big event, here’s official artwork of the eight announced characters so far: Jin Kazama, Jun Kazama, Kazuya Mishima, Jack-8, Lars Alexandersson, Marshall Law, Paul Phoenix, and King.
While some of the designs, like King and Marshall Law, will be instantly familiar, we’re quite enjoying Paul Phoenix’s grizzled new biker look – as well as Jack-8’s ostentatious armour. Which is your favourite design thus far? Who else are you hoping makes the launch day roster? Juggle some thoughts into the comments section below.

Paul needs to fire his barber.
If Mokujin isn't the lead cover art character, I’m out.
Loving King's additions.
@Kidfunkadelic83 Harada confirmed that his iconic hairstyle will still be in the game as a customisation option
Missed opportunity to let Lars Alexandersson go bald, but still have what's left of his hair as the same Flock of Seagulls haircut!
Loving that Jun is back!
One thing that always bothered me about Tekken was that King would have to have a tiny little head to fit into that mask, if you think about it.
What the hell happened to Paul's hair lol!?
Man, I was hoping for Roger to be in the roster. Is it wrong if I just want to see Roger’s family and Tekken Bowl in that beautiful new Unreal engine?
No Yoshimitsu?. Boo.
@TeapotBuddha Yessir!
Always always always thought King was the coolest looking character
@Totheteeth it’s just a jaguar head 😂😂
King looking like THE king as always and Jun looking even more lovely.👍
Kazumi was my main in 7 so I hope they add her. Also, it's weird to have a tekken game without heihachi they should at least add him as preorder dlc or something.
Great so far, curious to see what they do with Yoshimitsu this time round.
@johncalmc lmao, as a king main i never actually thought about this but you're right.
