Release Schedule for All Tekken 8 DLC Characters

Tekken 8 launched with 32 playable characters. However, as tends to be the case with most modern fighting games, the size of the game's roster has increased in the months and years since, with a number of DLC fighters being added.

Season 1 saw the return of Eddy, Lidia, and Heihachi, as well as a guest character in the form of Final Fantasy 16's Clive Rosfield. Season 2 will add four new Tekken 8 DLC characters, the details of which can be found below.

Tekken 8 DLC Character Release Schedule (Season 2)

DLC Fighter	Early Access Release Date	Regular Release Date
Anna Williams	March 31, 2025	April 3, 2025
Fahkumram	July 7, 2025	July 10, 2025
Armor King	October - December 2025
New Challenger	October - December 2025

Those who purchase the Season 2 Character Pass will gain access to Tekken 8's DLC fighters three days before everybody else. Based on the Season 1 release dates and the limited information provided by Bandai Namco so far, it seems safe to assume that the last two DLC characters will be released in early October and mid-December, respectively.

Upon Season 2's announcement, the only confirmed DLC character for the character pass was Anna Williams, who series fans will know as Nina's younger sister. Like her sister, Anna fights using a mix of Aikido and another Japanese fighting style known as Koppojutsu, with koppo loosely translating to bone-breaking. Fahkumram was announced a few months later. He's a Muay Thai fighter who made his debut in Tekken 7, where he was also added to the game as post-launch DLC. Announced at the same time as Fahkumram, Armor King, who, like King, is a pressure-heavy pro wrestler, will be released in the fall. As of the time of writing, all that we know about the final Season 2 fighter is that they've never appeared in a Tekken game before.
