2 New Tekken 8 Gameplay Trailers Surfaced Online

All Tekken fans must know that Panda made her first appearance in Tekken 3. It was originally a palette swap for the other bear fighter of the series, Kuma who has been making a playable appearance in every Tekken game ever since her debut. On the other hand, Alisa is an android made in the image of Dr. Bosconovitch’s late daughter. This character made her debut in Tekken 6. The point worth mentioning here is that both characters are associated with Tekken regular Ling Xiaoyu. Panda is her bodyguard and Alisa becomes her friend in non-canon material like Project X Zone and Tekken: Blood Vengeance.

The gameplay trailers accentuate the two characters’ fighting styles. All Tekken 8 fans know that Panda is a moveset clone of Tekken‘s Kuma. The duo has the same moves and gameplay styles with longer limbs. The second Tekken 8 trailer shows Alisa Bosconovitch. It is a robotic fighter with many weapons including chainsaws, jetpack wings, and even her head. The trailer hints at her Jack-8 model. Moreover, it also displays her special moves that incorporate her weaponry. Fans applauded Alisa’s Rage Art finishing move for being an extremely comedic but powerful-looking move. So, let’s wait and watch if fans love the upcoming new moves of their favorite characters or not.
