M. Bison isn’t the only classic fighting game character who has difficulty staying dead. Before starting the Tekken 8 Top 6 at EVO 2024, Tekken 8 director Katsuhiro Harada and designer Michael Murray were welcomed to the stage to share announcements of new Tekken 8 content that would leave the crowd “super excited.” But just like how Heihachi dances around death, Harada and Murray would have some fun messing with the audience before getting to the main attraction.
The character trailer for the return of Heihachi Mishima was actually the fourth announcement made at EVO 2024 in the Tekken department. You can catch the trailer below from the official Bandai Namco YouTube channel for yourself. The official trailer is the same as the one shown at EVO, except for one missing detail.
