Pre-orders open on August 22, 2023. There will also be Arcade Quest avatar costumes if you pre-order. The new trailer also confirmed 32 characters at launch.

With Arcade Quest Mode in Tekken 8, players create a custom avatar. They then head to an arcade for a fighting game community-inspired experience. This will exist alongside a more traditional story mode. The pre-order bonus gives people an Avatar Costume of Paul Phoenix. On PlayStation consoles, there is an exclusive Avatar Skin set for Mokujin and Tetsujin.
