TEKKEN 8 Patch Notes v.1.06.02: Lidia nerfs & new Shop items

As a long-time fan of the Tekken series and someone who has spent countless hours mastering each character’s movesets, I’m always eagerly awaiting updates to keep the game fresh and exciting. While I was initially disappointed when I learned that Patch 1.06.02 didn’t bring any major changes like the previous patches did, upon closer inspection, I realized that it still offers something of value.

In this article, we’ll showcase the fresh additions to the TEKKEN Store and ponder if it’s a wise use of your TEKKEN Coins. Additionally, we delve into the modifications made to Lidia Sobielska’s moveset, examining their impact on her character.

Classic costumes for Lee and Steve

In the heat of the gaming arena, I’ve just scored the latest update for TEKKEN 8 – patch 1.06.02. Guess who’s stepping back into their iconic threads? None other than Lee and Steve! Their timeless costumes harken back to Tekken 5, a nod to our roots that I can’t help but appreciate.

One new costume costs 400 TEKKEN COINS. The biggest bundle in the game offers 5,500 TC for $49.99.

Shark avatar 

It’d be awesome to don this riotously funny Shark outfit for battles in TEKKEN 8! Unfortunately, Patch 1.06.02 has introduced it exclusively as an avatar. But, there are several color options available to suit various characters, which is still quite appealing.
