The value story
The value story
Across all 19 discounts in the 3 years tracked, the median cut is 50 percent, about 8 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 2 weeks ago.
It is pricier than 99 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 97 percent. Undisputed ($19.99, scores 3) outscores it, and so does Kandidatos ($0.99, scores 79). Both sit among its closest neighbours.
More about TEKKEN 8
The press liked it more than its buyers did, 91 against 57 percent.
Players rate it 57 percent positive over its lifetime, and the last 30 days run 66 percent. It is aging into a better game than its average suggests. This site sampled 799 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 7 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written July 2026 to October 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 59 percent of the 1,186 reviews written there were positive, against 57 percent overall, and those are 3 percent of everything written about it. It sells extras on top of the sticker price (boost, cosmetic); the score docks it lightly for that.
4.2 hours to finish it, 17 to exhaust it. The completionist tail is 4.1 times the campaign.

What players say
I have been a big tekken fan for about 20 years now. I started out with Tekken 5 and immediately loved the roster, gameplay, and the overall lore each character has. I have been a casual Tekken enjoyer from T5 until about the 2nd half of Tekken 7 when I realized that I was getting better at the game and I could actually compete in this game both online and offline against the best in not just my local region, but...

Could be fun, but as pointed out before, unoptimized like crazy. Had to disable Framesync pro on my screen, limit my pcs fps to 120 for everything or this game would stutter, and some other options in AMD. Not to mention the huuuge storage space it takes. But still in Midnight Siege there is a sudden frame freeze and loss. Honesly, don't get the game. There are so many better fighting games out there,
Season 3 is a huge improvement over Season 2. Heat feels less overwhelming, matches feel more interactive, and the game is probably in its best state since launch. Definitely worth playing if you dropped it before.
