Tekken 8 might be my most anticipated game so far this gen

I feel sorry for every other fighting game in existence when this game comes out…

I, personally, am more excited for SFVI but T8 does look dope.

A few days ago Ed Boon did a sudden Q&A session on Twitter, and there were a couple good questions fans asked him.

He’s turned off the replies to these tweets, so you won’t see any comments or replies to his answers.

“What was the reason MK11 ended earlier than anticipated? In august you said not even klose”

“Has breaking the 2 year release date for the next NRS project helped you and your team more in getting your project to the vision that all of you have been working very hard for?”

“Can we get a release window for the next project?”

“Can we expect a reveal for your next game soon ( By soon I mean the next 6 months )”

“Injustice 3”

“MK30th anniversary collection of older games any time soon?”

So:

Most likely next year is when their next game will release.

We’ll probably (finally) get info in the next 6 months.

It’s not IJ3 (:pensive:).

No anniversary collection (:cry:) but Ed wants to make a ‘directors cut’ of the OG3 that isn’t just a remaster.

That last part is interesting. How would that work? Rebalancing? Additional characters?

I feel like MK1 could have a few more characters. Maybe make Reptile an unlockable and they could also add in the original concept for Jax.

There was someone that asked about possible rereleases for the 3D games and Ed said if he were to rerelease them, he would want to do something different like remaster them into 2D fighters instead.

Another person asked if they would be able to add MK 2011 to Xbox BC and he said they would instead have to remaster it and add GGPO to the online, and said that both of those aren’t easy things to do.

Good call on the original Jax concept, I actually forgot about him.

I actually saw the 3d to 2d comment and it actually made me upset :pensive:. All that means is that we are never getting the 3d games on modern hardware.

And finally, that explains why you have to use a disc to play MK '11 on Xbox. If they wanted to make the game easily accessible, they would release a remaster.

Pondering if I should get a fight stick or controller That is made for fighting games

If you used a stick before - get a stick.

If you haven’t - get a pad.

Sticks are not really mandatory for modern fighters due to stuff like input leniency. And they have a somewhat steep learning curve if you haven’t used one before.

Any pad recommendations that work on series x/s?
