Tekken 8 keeps getting better as Bandai Namco Games released the latest updates in the game. It has only been months since the release of the newest installment in the Tekken franchise, and they’re already in version 1.07. This shows the dedication of the development team to improve the gaming experience of the players. 

With that, here are some of the details to remember on Tekken 8 1.07 patch notes.

New Items in the TEKKEN SHOP

Emphasis on new items in the TEKKEN SHOP. This serves as one of the highlights of the latest update as it brings new costume packs and customization items to let you personalize your characters and avatars.

These are the new personalization options in the latest updates to make your characters and avatars visually stand out. 

TEKKEN BALL REPLAYS 

A major improvement in the 1.07 patch is the addition of “TEKKEN BALL REPLAYS.” You can find the feature under the “ONLINE REPLAY” section, which allows players to: 

• Watch replays of Online TEKKEN BALL matches in TEKKEN FIGHT LOUNGE’s “BEACH AREA.”. 

• Get access to TEKKEN BALL replays from the “ONLINE REPLAY” menu.
• Have a view of their own TEKKEN BALL online match replays from “MY REPLAY & TIPS.” 

Although these replays are now available, it faced some restrictions as the various TIPS are not displayed in TEKKEN BALL replay mode.

Character Behavior Adjustments

The announcement previously by Bandai Namco claims that there won’t be any major balance changes for the next few months. In the latest 1.07 patch, it only includes minimal adjustments to character behaviors and their move properties. These changes won’t affect the current meta and are just for improvement of the overall gameplay experience. 

The players will see subtle changes in how certain characters perform during matches. You may refer to this announcement to see the complete list of character behavior adjustments done by Bandai Namco. 

Impact on Game Modes and Features

Some of the 1.07 updates will have varying effects depending on the modes and game features of Tekken 8:

1. MY REPLAY & TIPS and DOWNLOADED REPLAYS: There won’t be any available playback for the replay data that are taken with previous versions. 
2. ONLINE REPLAY: It will delete all the replay data taken with old versions. 
3. SUPER GHOST BATTLE and GHOST MATCH MODE: The current updates in move properties and behavior of the characters won’t apply in these game modes. 

Unfortunately, the players will lose their access to older replay footage they have. However, these actions ensured consistency of all replay and ghost battle data with the current version of the game. 

Looking Ahead: Heihachi’s Return

After the patch release of 1.07, Bandai Namco revealed surprising and exciting news for their fans. Their autumn update will return along with a fan-favorite character, Heihachi Mishima. Although he was initially thought to be dead, he will reappear soon in the game as one of the playable characters. With this, the Tekken Community is looking forward to what he’ll bring in his return to the game in the upcoming months. 

Conclusion

No need to think much of anything for now since the Tekken 8 1.07 patch notes did not introduce major balance changes. In the meantime, the fans can enjoy the process of customizing and personalizing their characters and avatars. Especially with the new items Bandai Namco added in the TEKKEN SHOP. Make them stand out in the game by using cosmetic items in-game. 

Besides this, there are subtle character behavior adjustments like in Rage Arts and their movement properties to improve the gameplay experience. Make sure to update your device to access the latest features of Tekken 8. Have a fun match ahead as you conquer the King of Iron Fist Tournament!
