Tekken 8 is being updated with the brand new post Evo 1.06 patch. The most significant component of the patch is the release of the game’s latest DLC character Lidia Sobieska, who will come along with the new “Seaside Resort” stage.
That’s not all this update is bringing, however, as a whole new mode, balance and bug changes for a handful of roster members, and updates to the Tekken Shop are en route as well. Continue on to see all that’s coming.
This maintenance period is scheduled to run from approximately 2:30pm PST to 9pm PST, and during that window all online content will be inaccessible.
Those who have purchased the Year 1 Character Pass will immediately have access to newcomer Lidia once servers are back online, but those who have not pre-purchased her in this way will have to wait until Thursday, July 25 to buy her individually.
