What happened, Miss Williams?
It’s a good time to be a fan of fighting games and a good day for those who love their sexy silent assassins. Nina Willaims, star of Death by Degrees and also a Tekken mainstay, got her first solo trailer for the upcoming release of Tekken 8. Nina, sister of fellow fighter Anna Williams, sports an unforgettable look this time around, and I honestly can’t take my eyes off of her. The last Tekken game that I played was Tekken Tag Tournament 2 for the Wii U and she was definitely one of my most played characters. Given her history with the series, I don’t think there was ever a danger of Nina not appearing in Tekken 8, but I’m glad I didn’t have to wait too long to get her confirmed.
The reveal of Nina Williams for Tekken 8 follows previous trailers for the upcoming fighter that have confirmed other returning favorites.💛 Other fighters set to appear in this highly anticipated sequel include:
- Marshall Law
- Paul Phoenix
- King
- Lars Alexandersson
- Jin Kazama
- Devil Jin
- Jun Kazama
- Kazuya Mishima
- Jack-8
Nina’s trailer was just one of a few notable pieces of Tekken news today. To ready players for Tekken 8, Executive Director Katsuhiro Harada and Director Kohei Ikeda presented an in-depth look at some of the new systems that’ll be introduced in the game, including the new Rage System and a detailed look at the Heat System that was previously announced. The video, posted below, also confirms Tekken 8 will include an optional simplified control scheme that combines the Easy Combo and Assist features from Tekken 7. Bandai Namco also confirmed the would return this year with Tekken 7 and the entire tournamentও would be fully offline.
Tekken 8 is still without a set release date, but when the game does arrive, you’ll be able to pick it up for PS5, PC, and Xbox Series X|S.
