Namco Bandai released the new trailer for Fahkumram‘s return to Tekken 8 during Combo Breaker 2025. Teased earlier this month at Evo Japan 2025, the fighter will be the next in line as the returning character. The Muay Thai fighter takes on Brian( and the possibly only word he actually says in the entire series), Kazuya, and King, in his move demonstrations. Fahkumram even has a move that stuns a character enough to let him stroll over to finish them off. Fahkumram’s knees are dangerous.
Fahkumram has some hard-hitting OTG knees in this run. His knee heat attack feels as if it can dodge low attacks. It’s also shown that Fahkumram has a counterattack that absorbs one hit, launching some rapid kicks in one area. Fahkumram has a high elbow move that covers a good distance to follow up on an opponent. A lot of heavy launchers are in Fahkumram’s kit as well as some sort of armor blocking move that isn’t even Heat activated.
Wrestling Jaguars Stick Together
Armor King is also coming back to the King of the Iron Fist Tournament. The trailer showed off the returning combatant in his stride as a teaser with pyrotechnics at the ready. Armor King will be joining the roster for the Fall DLC character. The wrestler who wrecked a few friendships within the lore has returned. As to which one this is, Armor King 2 is possibly the one to stop by the DLC train.
Fahkumram will be coming on July 7th for early access and July 10th for everyone else. The v2.03 update, which will include cosmetics, balance changes, and Pac-Man’s anniversary stage, will be released on the same day.
