The developers of Tekken 8 recently explained the decision to include an in-game shop and microtransactions amid the pushback it received. Tekken 8 launched back in January, getting rave reviews and critical acclaim. Much of the praise was given to its plot, the gameplay, and the realistic and dynamic visuals. This has resulted in Tekken 8 becoming one of the best-selling games in the franchise, and it is poised to get post-launch DLC with brand-new fighters, like the fan favorite Eddy Gordo.
