Bandai Namco announced a demo for Tekken 8 will be releasing soon, allowing players to try out the game ahead of its January launch. The trial will be releasing for the PS5 on December 14, 2023, and it will show up for PC and Xbox Series X players on December 21, 2023.
The Tekken 8 demo will allow players to try out the opening chapter of the game’s story mode, which has now been named as The Dark Awakens. Details of the story are scarce, although the official website states it will involve Jin Kazama facing off against his father, Kazuya, in a battle across the globe. This main story will also feature a series of character episodes for other characters.
The demo will also contain a versus fighting mode, allowing players to try out the new mechanics. Unlike the previous Closed Network Test and Closed Beta Test that allowed players to experience the game ahead of release, the Tekken 8 demo will be a purely offline experience.
These are the only details Bandai Namco have provided about the demo. It’s unknown which of the game’s 32 playable characters will be available to play.
Tekken 8 will release for the PS5, PC and Xbox Series X/S on January 26, 2024. The demo will be released on December 14, 2023 for PS5 players and December 21, 2023 for PC and Xbox players.
