Yujiro Hanma Announced For Tekken 8

Bandai Namco Entertainment has announced the final character of the Season 3 pass of Tekken 8, as Yujiro Hanma comes to the game. 

Revealed at Combo Breaker, Yujiro Hanma will be coming to Tekken 8 early 2027, though a specific release date hasn't been given yet. 

He's the final character of the season pass, following Bob, Roger Jr and the soon-releasing Kunimitsu. 

Why Yujiro Hanma Is A Good Fit For Tekken 8 

Yujiro Hanma, also known as The Ogre, is the father of Baki Hanma from the popular Baki The Grappler series and marks Tekken 8's second guest character following Clive in Season 1. 

In a sense he's a great fit for Tekken 8 because while he's nota weapon fighter, a lot of his popularity also hinges on his extreme shows of force and powerful technique. 

Given no gameplay has been revealed yet for the character, we'll have to wait until closer to his launch to see if he has any interactions with fellow bad parent Heihachi Mishima.
