Despite the lack of even an approximate release date, the fighting game Tekken 8 is constantly acquiring new details.

The developers have released many videos about the characters of the next part of the series, and now project director Katsuhiro Harada has revealed some of the technical nuances of Tekken 8.

What is known

Katsuhiro Harada tweeted thatTekken 8 players will have a cross-play option available, so users of different platforms will be able to freely conduct virtual duels with each other.

The producer mentioned that the introduction of crossplay was planned back in Tekken 7, but due to a number of reasons, the developers from Bandai Namco abandoned this idea.

crossplay? Of course I will.
btw
When the previous generation consoles werereleased, I had already proposed crossplay between the two platformers. However, at that time, they were at odds with each other over their mutual interests (and P2P security issue) &amp; repeatedly refused. https://t.co/I8b38YfePh

In addition, Tekken 8 will also rollback the network code, with the help of which it is planned to reduce the response time of the game to pressing the control keys during online matches.

already installed it, and it already has what youwant. The reason WHY we don&#8217;t make big announcements like cross-play is Cuz even if we make big announcements, people like you will only say things like, &#8220;waaaa! That&#8217;s normal in this day and age.&#8221;
So shut up &amp; sit the hell down. https://t.co/ZA1ZKMV9gC
