Tekken 8 Addresses Fan Backlash Over DLC Pricing

Bandai Namco responds to player complaints by offering free in-game currency and future content adjustments.

Tekken 8 faced significant backlash after the Genmaji Temple stage was not included in the Year 1 Pass, prompting a wave of negative Steam reviews.
Bandai Namco has apologized and announced that Year 1 Pass owners will receive the upcoming winter stage for free.
All players who log in between October 29 and November 26 will receive 500 Tekken coins, equivalent to the $5 cost of the controversial stage.
The developers acknowledged player feedback and committed to re-evaluating their approach to DLC releases and communication.
Despite the controversy, Tekken 8 maintains a mixed overall review rating on Steam, reflecting ongoing player dissatisfaction.
