SUMMONERS WAR X TEKKEN 8

The TEKKEN 8 collaboration begins on July 30, 2025!

[Tekken] is a world-renowned 3D fighting game series published by Bandai Namco Entertainment. First released in arcades in 1994 and on the PlayStation console in 1995, the series has continued for over 30 years, earning the love of fighting game fans across the globe. It is one of the most iconic and beloved titles in the genre to this day.

The Tekken series is especially known for its realistic 3D combat visuals, distinct fighting styles for each character, and a complex yet gripping storyline centered around the Mishima bloodline.

In particular, the latest installment [TEKKEN 8], released in 2024, has been praised as a “textbook fighting game” for its improved graphics, heavy impact feel, and newly introduced battle system.

For this collaboration, five key characters from [TEKKEN 8] have been reimagined in Summoners War’s signature:

[Jin Kazama, Hwoarang, Paul Phoenix, Nina Williams, and Heihachi Mishima].

Jin Kazama, the main protagonist fighting against his fate, wielding power and determination to dominate the battlefield.

Hwoarang, who relentlessly pressures his opponents with fast, precise Taekwondo kick combos.

Paul Phoenix, a bold fighter with overwhelming power and deep martial arts spirit.

Nina Williams, the cold assassin who strikes with speed and lethal technique.

And finally, Heihachi Mishima, the very symbol of Tekken itself with unmatched charisma and combat skill.

Each character, with their unique identity, will be reinterpreted to deliver a new level of excitement in Summoners War.

Like previous collabs, the Tekken Collab Characters will appear only in their Awakened form, using their original names.

They will be added as either Nat 4 or Nat 5 depending on attribute,

with Heihachi Mishima appearing only as a Nat 5 Fire Attribute Character, obtainable through a special event.

Please refer to the table below for more details.

You are probably most curious about how Tekken's powerful fighting techniques will be recreated in Summoners War.

We have worked hard to preserve the original essence while delivering new fun through diverse skill mechanics.

Here's a sneak peek at some of the skills.

We spent a lot of time thinking about how to best capture the skill identity of Tekken characters in Summoners War.

For example, Hwoarang’s combat style in the original focuses on pressuring the opponent through fast and precise kicks.

We interpreted that in Summoners War as an overwhelming number of hits, giving him some of the highest multi-hit skills.

We hope you get to experience the stylish and fast-paced action Hwoarang is known for in Summoners War.

This collab also comes with voiceovers for each character during skill activation.

Although Tekken does not feature much dialogue, shouts and lines specific to each character
