Tekken 8 is the latest entry in the long-running fighting game franchise. The first game was released in 1994, and over the 30 years following, the series has remained a staple of the fighting game genre. The series' 3D movement and often outlandish lore set it apart from other big franchises in the genre. Tekken 7 introduced a number of guest characters, such as Akuma from Street Fighter and Negan from The Walking Dead. Now that Tekken 8 is in players' hands, fans are demanding new guest characters, and Final Fantasy 7's Tifa Lockhart is by far the most requested.
