The Jack Appearing in Tekken 8 is Jack-8

Bandai Namco officially revealed the Tekken 8 version of Jack, who is known here as Jack-8. However, we already had an idea he was in the game and on the way. He first showed up in the Lars Alexandersson character trailer. However, this time he gets to stand in the spotlight.

Jack has appeared in pretty much every Tekken installment, and the naming scheme always follows the one used by Jack-8 in Tekken 8. The original “Jack” appeared in the first game. Since then, almost everyone featured a number at the end. The exception is Street Fighter x Tekken’s Jack-X.

Here’s the new trailer showing off Jack-8. In it, he faces off against returning fighter King.

Also, this is the list of all of the Tekken 8 character trailers that appeared before the Jack-8 reveal.

While there isn’t a trailer for Jun Kazama yet, she will appear in the game as well.

Tekken 8 is still in development for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and PC via Steam. There’s still no exact release window for the game yet. There will be a closed alpha test for Tekken 8 at Evo Japan 2023 between March 31, 2023 and April 2, 2023.
