Tekken 8 has been the biggest fighter of the year so far. We’re already gearing up for the first big addition Eddy. However, most major fighters these days get quite a bit of support after they launch. We’re expecting a full slate of Tekken 8 DLC characters over the first year of the game. So far, these fighters have been a tightly kept secret, but a data miner might have just blown the whole list open.

The Tekken 8 DLC characters might have been revealed by some data in the latest Tekken patch notes. Data miners frequently delve below the surface in games, to find upcoming and planned content. References in the files might have even revealed what the next characters coming to the game are. What new faces can we expect to join the Tekken 8 rosters in the near future?

Tekken 8 DLC Characters Found by Data Miner

The first DLC addition to Tekken 8 is going to be Eddy. He’s planned to be added in the Spring, kicking off the Season 1 DLC for the game. The second addition is planned for Summer, with another in Autumn, and a final one in Winter. A dataminer has managed to find quite a few of the planned characters. The first seems to be Lidia Sobieska, from Tekken 7.

The next is Fakhumram, and the final is supposed to be Craig Marduk. This would wrap up the season 1 Tekken 8 DLC characters. These leaks are coming from players delving into the files of the game. They seem fairly substantiated. However, as usual, leaks should be taken with a grain of salt. These characters being planned at some point might not necessarily mean they’re still in the works now.

While it isn’t quite confirmed, this could be our first batch DLC line up for Tekken 8. There’s definitely a lot to look forward to over the coming year, between regular DLC and the Tekken World Tour returning soon.
