Armor King Returns to TEKKEN 8 with a Vengeance

Published on

Armor King is back and he’s more ruthless than ever. The fan-favourite wrestler, known as the Dark Supernova, makes his return to TEKKEN 8 today, driven by vengeance for his fallen brother.

In the game’s lore, Armor King once sought justice through The King of Iron Fist Tournament, but his revenge was cut short when the tournament collapsed under G Corp’s rule. When confronted by his long-time rival King, who tried to end the feud, Armor King refused to stand down.

The official reveal trailer showcases his devastating wrestling combos, aggressive grapples, and a dark new flair that cements his spot among the game’s fiercest fighters.

“I will have my revenge. No matter what.”

Now wielding a forbidden technique passed down by his brother, Armor King re-enters the ring to settle his score once and for all.

Available Now in Season 2

Armor King joins the TEKKEN 8 Season 2 Character Pass, alongside Anna and Fahkumram. He’s also part of the Season 2 Character and Stage Pass or available separately as a standalone purchase.

Fans can look forward to the next addition — Miary Zo, who will join the roster on December 5th.
