Tekken 8: Kuma Gameplay Trailer Revealed — Bandai Namco

Kuma, the literal fighting bear of the Tekken series, has been something of a running joke for some time now. He's just as hilarious in Tekken 8 but comes with a side of badassery. Just look at that bandana!

Tekken: Kuma and Panda

As ever, Kuma is in pursuit of Panda's heart, offering up his treasured salmon in the hopes of securing her paw in marriage. Alas, Kuma's advances are shot down in their unique pre-fight cinematic when Panda swats aside Kuma's fishy offering. Perhaps bamboo shoots might do the trick?

Tekken 8 Release Date:

Kuma will join the roster of playable characters for Tekken 8's launch on January 26. Tekken 8 will be available for Windows, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S, so glove up and get ready to dunk your friends as Kuma!
