Eddy Gordo is set to be the first DLC character in Tekken 8’s first season, and he’s supposed to be landing sometime in spring 2024. Now that we’ve entered the season, it looks like Bandai Namco is ready to show off what Eddy can do in the latest game. A livestream has been announced for the end of this week, and not only will we get new details on the character, but we’ll also get an idea of what’s coming in the next update.

Bandai Namco announced the upcoming Tekken 8 Eddy Gordo livestream via the Tekken Twitter.

He’s the opening volley of Tekken 8 Season 1, for which three more characters have been confirmed for summer, autumn, and winter of 2024. Moreover, Bandai Namco has been aggressive in attempting to crack down on cheaters and unacceptable behaviors in the game, which may also come up as part of the new update alongside balancing.
