It's (another) exciting moment for fighting game fans. At the time of writing, Tekken 8 is just over a week away, and by all accounts it appears to be a cracking entry in the storied franchise. Bandai Namco has just released the launch trailer for the PS5 fighter, and it's looking great.

There's an emphasis in the trailer on the game's bonkers-looking story mode, which sees Jin and his allies going up against Kazuya, who's using the King of Iron Fist Tournament to establish a new world order. Of course, the game is much more than just that; there's a full arcade mode, online play, comprehensive training facilities, ghost battles, and most importantly, the return of Tekken Ball.

It launches on PS5 on 26th January. Are you excited to hop in? Choose your fighter in the comments section below.
