TEKKEN 8 has a new fighter. Roger Jr., the Pocket Commander, arrives in Early Access for Season 3 Pass holders on November 11 at 3:00 p.m. PST, and goes on sale for all players on November 16.

Roger Jr. first appeared in TEKKEN 5 and fights with the Commando Wrestling style, mixing dynamic attacks with pro-wrestling throws. He joins Bob and Kunimitsu as Season Pass 3 characters, with Yujiro Hanma still to come.

A second NIKE x TEKKEN collaboration arrives alongside him, with in-game items inspired by King's appearances in TEKKEN 3, planned for TEKKEN Fight Pass Round 12. The ARENA battle stage will also carry a limited-time NIKE theme as part of the collaboration.

TEKKEN 8 is available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC via Steam.
