Now the ninja himself has made quite the impact on the franschise, whilst he’s never been integral to that of the main plot, he’s always a joy to see appear, whether thats been In Soul Calibur or Tekken series, bringing something unique In each and every game, but what Is the tale behind this icon?
Well we will be exploring that in todays video, to get you all prepared for Tekken 8’s release!

Yoshimitsu is probably the only active character that knows the entire Soul Caliber and Tekken timeline, which makes him staying on the sideline actually tactically smart. He stays alive longer by not getting caught up in the big main characters fighting each other, but is also active enough to make sure the world isn't going to be destroyed in the process.

I always look forward to the new Yoshi costume every Tekken/SC game. T3 costume will always be the standard of what he "should" look like, but that would ignore a lot of the interesting designs he's had over the years especially the SC costumes when they played him up more as a kabuki actor. His SC3 2P "octopus" design I thought was clever and is a personal favorite. The SC2 design was also neat with its "clockwork" arm that references when the Tekken-era character got a bionic robot arm.

I would really love to see a Tekken vs Soul Calibur in the future. I know one relies on fist fighting and the other on weapons but seeing exist in both and literally use a sword gives me hope that it's possible.

It did well by them, Bamco just doesn't want to compete with themselves because most of the same team works on both Tekken and Soul Calibur. We are not going to see marketing for a possible Soul Calibur 7, until Tekken 8 has been out for at least 2 years. Just like it was for Tekken 7 and Soul Calibur 6.

Best summary of his history I've seen yet! It's hilarious seeing so many Tekken vets on their reaction videos to his announcement trailer have zero knowledge of the character. I'm a Yoshi main, and I'm hoping they've made Yoshi at least competitive this time. He had so many janky moves in T7, it was a true shame. He didn't even need true buffs, just fix his move list. Can't wait to give this one a try!

I’ve been playing the Tekken 8 Demo, and it’s so fun. Going to be honest, I have not played a Tekken game since Tag Tournament, 4, and 5, but playing 8 feels quite refreshing, and fighting as Jin Kazama is such a BLAST⚡️ The awesome Netflix show, Tekken Bloodline, brought me back to the Tekken Franchise, which is why I anticipate for Tekken 8.

Agree, like the man holding the most dangerous weapon to mankind and in clan that beat evil spirit/monster in the old days, surely at least give this man important lore in Tekken story mode. I guarantee Yoshimitsu can give Kazuya a hard time beating him, obviously he won't beat Kazuya, but at least it will be crazy intense fight.
