Tekken 8has released an exciting trailer revealing the new character Victor Chevalier. The video shows an old gentleman dressed in an elegant gray suit as he takes on other opponents like Raven,a fighter who is back inTekken 8. What is most striking about the gameplay trailer is that Victor uses different weapons such as a pistol, which gives him access to a long-range projectile, and a dagger for quick, lethal blows. Chevalier also uses a laser sword for longer-range attacks and has a teleport similar to the oneFinal Fantasy 14’s Noctis had inTekken 7. Victor’s setting couldn’t be more appropriate, with the fights taking place aboard a yacht with Paris and the Eiffel Tower in the background.
