With the trend of crazy crossovers in video games (a trend that, by the way, was invented by ‘Super Smash Bros’ before ‘Fortnite’), there are those who, more than asking, demand that their favorite characters come together in a game like ‘Tekken 8’, which, having the door open for the famous “season passes”, has already made fans ask, without a doubt, for Tifa Lockhart to make her appearance sooner or later. And the game director understands it, but he can’t do much more either.

It makes sense, of course: after all, the character from ‘Final Fantasy VII’, reimagined for the remake, fights using kicks, punches, and martial arts. There are many who have been asking for it for years, and Katsuhiro Harada, the head of ‘Tekken’ (in general), has finally given his opinion on Twitter: “We know it’s appealing and I understand. But we haven’t decided anything about guest characters yet”.
If what Harada intends is to calm the spirits, of course he has achieved the opposite, because now it has been interpreted as if it has not been a resounding “No” and the more we insist, the sooner we will get it. We all learned something from ‘Zack Snyder’s Justice League’. For now, the only confirmed character for ‘Tekken 8’ that will return via DLC is Eddy. Who knows, maybe one day we will have Tifa falling off the famous cliff and making a handful of people happy.
