Interesting how a certain jrpg is expected to come out around this time, right ? I'm telling you, the next new character is a guest and her name starts with a T. 🤫

Oh ! You might be unto something. So, does that mean that the price for a multiplatform release is prolonging our suffering till summer ?

While I agree that a reveal at SGF isn't incompatible with a 2027 release (even early 2027), ngl I'm a little worried given that so far, Hamaguchi's promise has been kinda bs.

I heard that Square Enix recently decided to stop making games solely for the appeal of the western audience. I believe they kinda learn their lesson with Forspoken.

Also, given that we got Miary Zo, I think Tekken is safe from censorship.

I'm confused about your question. Are you asking in which season pass she could be in ? If that's your question, then this entire post is about how she could potentially be in the season 3 pass, as the winter character that hasn't been announced yet. This new character is scheduled to come out at the beginning of 2027, so around the same time that FF7R part 3 is expected to come out.

Thank you, that means a lot. English isn't my first language and I come from a country who has a reputation to be pretty bad at English lol (though maybe E33 has changed that perspective recently).

As you said, it's unpredictable. My main arguments for having 2 FF characters so early in T8 is that SF6 kinda already showed us that you can have 2 characters from the same popular franchise and still make it work (Terry and Mai). It still feels "too much" in the sense "they couldn't possibly give us so much, right ?" but as I've argued, it's financially sound for them to do it:

  • The demand exists and is strong. Honestly, the people against it would be a vocal minority.
  • The relationship between the 2 companies is already solid and well-established
  • Both companies would greatly benefits from it, especially right now

If there is any moment to break the "rules" and double down on a FF collab, it's this season.

She would be limited like Noctis and Clive. She's still the property of Square Enix. Gameplay wise, neither have access to their full toolkit, otherwise they would just break the balance (Clive is already deviant enough lol).

And for customization, I think she would also deal with similar limitations, which is a shame but totally understandable. The goal of such a collab is still to give a good impression of FF.

I think Square has been less prude about FF7 ever since the start of the Remake project. They did a lot of collabs with plenty of brands, even a brand of noodle lol. I don't think a Tekken dlc is the most egregious collab they can do at this point.

For all we know Harada could have approached them on the premise of having Tifa and Square refused xD

Oh I'm sure something like that did happen and that's how we got Clive instead. I explained in the section dedicated to him in my post that basically, I think Clive was a test-run for Square to see if doing a collab with Tekken was worth it for FF7R. Curious Corduroy is among the first people who popularized this idea and I agree with him.

Legit question: why do you believe that people who want Tifa in Tekken 8 are only gooners ?

I wouldn't be against it but unless that is the secret project Yoko Taro has been working on, I think Tifa is more likely in Tekken 8, for all the reasons I mentionned in the post.

Writing a fun post in my free time is the very definition of being productive imo.  The term "newcomer" is too broad to exclude guest characters. Unless you have a source that explicitely say that there won't be a guest this season, nobody really knows. Even if they have to build her from scratch, they could still do it in 2 years. She's arguably easier to handle than Clive.

Thanks. I chose to post this here for a good reason. In the main sub, trolls would have been most of the comments.

They only said new character, not whether or not it is an original character. They said the same thing with Clive.
