Reputed data miner reveals roster for Tekken 8’s upcoming Season Pass 1 DLC

Summary

• Reputed Dataminer Shootmans has revealed Tekken 8’s Season Pass 1 DLC roster as a part of his data mine.
•  The data mines reveal character data, pointing towards Fahkumram and Lidia returning in Season Pass 1 after Tekken 7.
• However, these results do not align perfectly with earlier rumors about the Season Pass 1 DLC roster characters.

In a little under a month since the release of Tekken 8, players have taken a liking to the title, which had quite a turbulent pre-launch phase. With a lot of characters included in the roster, this game packs a punch.

Now, reputed dataminer Shootmans has posted an extensive Twitter thread detailing Tekken 8’s possible DLC roster. The data entries suggest that Fahkumram and Lidia will be making a return after their appearance in Tekken 7.

There is reason to believe these claims are not something beyond the ordinary. This is because elements of the character’s listed fighting style and country of origin have been left in the game.

This includes an unknown fighter from Poland, hinting at Lidia, and another character from Thailand who uses Muay Thai – a description pointing towards Fahkumram.

Eddy Gordo has already been confirmed to be a part of the Tekken 8 Season Pass 1 Roster. Fahkuram was introduced instead of Bruce Irvin in Tekken 7, which fans found quite a debatable swap.

The same data miner has also found evidence of Craig Marduk, a fan-favorite and highly requested character. Craig is set for a return in the DLC.

Shootmans has suggested that he has reason to believe that the characters will be released in the summer, autumn, and winter of 2024. However, the order of release of the characters remains unknown.

One peculiar thing about this data-mined information is that it does not align with the previous leak, which had suggested that Eddy, Xiao Meng, armor King, and Roger would be included in the roster as the DLC characters.

Until an official announcement, all the speculations must be taken with a grain of salt. Players can theorize and grind away at Tekken 8, waiting for the first DLC.
