20 Most Anticipated Video Games Of 2024
3. Tekken 8

Platforms: Playstation 5, Xbox Series X and Series S, PC
With Street Fighter 6 having lit up the fighting game scene in 2023, the stage is set for Tekken 8 to start the new year off with a bang. Fortunately, Namco's latest looks ready to live up the hype by delivering what may be the best Tekken yet.
Tekken 8 looks like it's going to be spectacular. Not just visually - although its Unreal Engine-powered bouts make it a strong contender for the best-looking fighting game yet made - but due to its crunchy, satisfying combat and sheer wealth of game modes.
As well as bringing back fan-favourite modes like Tekken Ball, Tekken's stylish, cinematic Story Mode looks set to be a massive improvement from Tekken 7's unadventurous effort, and Arcade Quest is a delightfully meta look at the arcade scene that sees you take your avatar on a journey to become the best Tekken player in the world.
Throw in Tekken's best-in-class customization options and a whopping 32-strong character roster, and you've got a fighter that could easily see its players trading blows until Tekken 9's inevitable release on the PlayStation 6.
