Tekken 8 – Nina Williams Revealed in New Gameplay Trailer

Bandai Namco confirms the Silent Assassin will be part of Tekken 8's roster of playable fighters at launch.

There’s not much that we know about Tekken 8 just yet, but Bandai Namco has nonetheless been trickling out new details on the highly anticipated fighter over the last couple of months, having released a debut gameplay trailer in December, followed by details on the game’s new Heat System, Rage Arts, and more.

Now, the publisher has confirmed a new character for its roster of playable fighters at launch. Series staple Nina Williams, now seemingly voiced by a new actor, will be returning to star in Tekken 8, as she has done in every past mainline game in the series. The trailer shows the Silent Assassin in action as she combines her flurries of hard-hitting punches and kicks with barrages from her dual pistols. Check out the trailer below.

Tekken 8 is in development for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. It doesn’t yet have a release date, but Bandai Namco has previously suggested it could launch in 2023.
