Fans are not excited by Fahkumram’s return due to past complaints. An update intended to address player feedback.
In today’s Evopan, Bandai Namco Entertainment has revealed that the next character will be leaving at Tekken 8 this spring.
Unfortunately for developers, instead of jumping for joy, the game has grown more frustrating with the game that began with the Big Season 2 update, which significantly changed the gameplay experience.
Tekken 8’s upcoming DLC characters and major updates scheduled for May and June
At the event, Bandai Namco will be the next Tekken 8 DLC character who is the giant kickboxer Fakumuram. For those unnoticed, his announcement that he would be in the game was not immediately full of excitement as Fahkumram may be Tekken 7’s most hated character.
In addition to this announcement, Bandai Namco also outlined major updates heading into the game.

As you can see, the biggest draw here is likely to be a change in the balance that has been implemented, but there are quite a few crossover collaborations planned. Bandai Namco has soaked up hot water with the community as the Season 2 update dramatically changed the flow of gameplay with a more aggressive focus. The developers have made several changes, but many goodwill has been lost, and the introduction of Fahkumram has not benefited the Dev team.
Given the odd designs of the characters and how he was overwhelmed at the time of release, there aren’t many Tekken players who like Fahkumram. If you need to put your guess at risk, if Tekken 8 players are given the opportunity to vote for the most returning characters as DLC, Fahkumram may not even be part of the list.
Anyway, Tekken 8 players will see their characters being released later this summer, so be prepared.
