New cosmetics, potential balance changes, and upcoming Fighter King’s Tekken 8.
Earlier this month, Bandai Namco Entertainment revealed that the character from Second Season 2, who will be participating in the Iron Fist Tournament, is Fakumram, a tie-kickboxer. Whether you like the character or not, he is the next one released by the developer.
If you own a Season 2 Character Pass for the game, you will be able to play as Fahkumram immediately and we will let you know exactly when. In addition to that, there is also a new gameplay video showing what the characters can do in this Iteraton of the fighting game franchise.
Tekken 8 Fahkumram Release Date and Unlock Time
According to Bandai Namco, Fahkumram Wiill will be early access for everyone else on July 7th and July 10th, 2025. There is no official time for “PDT” outisde, but the title update should be rolled out along with the release of Fahkumram.
Unless something dramatic happens and Bandai Namco suddenly changes the server’s downtime schedule, players should expect the game to go offline around 6:30 PM PDT/9:30 EDT. Once the server is pulled, the patch download should be available in a few minutes. Players cannot log in and play online matches, but offline mode must be available.
Given the way Tie Fighter was overwhelmed when he debuted in Tekken 7, it’s understandable that he is one of the most hated characters in the game.
Along with Fahkumram, we hope to see new cosmetics released as well. Regarding changes in the balance of fighter jets, Bandai Namco has checked what is being worked on and is scheduled to be released this summer. The developers have not mentioned whether this upcoming patch will house it or whether it will be the next patch.
The next fighter to join the roster is King. This was also a DLC fighter for Tekken 7 (like Fahkumram). We’ll let our readers know if we can get more information about it.
