Button mashers chalk up another win as Eddy Gordo becomes Tekken 8's first DLC fighter

It ain't quite Tekken without capoeira fighter Eddy Gordo, which is why it makes total sense that he's just been announced as the first DLC character for . Prepare to wear your X and O buttons down once more.

He was revealed during "Tekken Talk Live" at the Tekken World Tour 2023 finals this past weekend, and will release in the rather vague window of "Spring." We didn't get to see too much of him in the trailer—in-game shots have been spliced with mocap and some other behind-the-scenes snippets—but we can at least see that he's been subject to a bit of a makeover.

His trademark locs tied back into a ponytail have been swapped out for a w69 Killmonger-esque loc situation—a style that has recently been for its overuse in gaming—and a brand-new outfit to boot. It's looking like a bit of a w69 funky combo of his classic green and yellow uniform with a little bit of his jaguar-patterned Tekken 7 outfit thrown in.

I have to admit when the reveal first happened I thought Eddy may have somehow had a son running amok. He looks significantly younger than his Tekken 7 appearance, and quite a bit more muscular too. I'm kind of here for it though, and I'm sure his alternate outfits will give w69 slot ทาง เข้า​ us back his classic look too. 

Honestly, I'm just glad to know we won't have to wait too long for him to be back in Tekken. When the base , it felt like an absolute crime to not see Eddy's face among it. It's w69 slot ทาง เข้า​ w69 slot ทางเข้า​ the first time a capoeira fighter has been excluded from the base game since Eddy's first appearance in Tekken 3, which made it all the stranger not having him around. For some, his short absence before his w69 slot ทางเข้า​ release will be a blessing. For me, I can't wait to have my leg-swinging king back ASAP.
