Nearly every game with some sort of online multiplayer has a battle pass nowadays. While it is not something people like, gamers have grown accustomed to it. And now, Tekken 8, the series which has gone so long without a battle pass gets one too.

Tekken 8 Battle Pass
Fans are understandably dissatisfied. Not only is this being added after the game has already been released, but it is also being added to a game that already has a lot of microtransactions. Such as an ultimate pack with more skins and a season pass with new characters.
VGC stated that the new fight pass was introduced during the Tekken Talk broadcast. This was largely about the first DLC fighter, Eddy Gordo, who will join the roster in an update later today. However, Bandai Namco used the opportunity to unveil modifications to the game’s monetization. This means that anyone hoping to get everything in-game will have to make even more purchases.
Many people are dismayed to see Bandai Namco implement this after the game has already launched. This has caused many gamers who want to avoid this kind of practice to boycott it.
The fight pass will be introduced to Tekken 8 in the upcoming patch, which is scheduled to be released later today. Like other battle passes, the fight pass will include daily and weekly assignments to help you move faster. The premium tier’s contents are described as “even more luxurious” on the official website, and it will also allow players to earn Tekken Coins, implying that this will not be available on the free battle pass tier.
