For the first time in Tekken history, Bandai Namco brings to its players the Fight Pass. It works the same as a typical Battle Pass and was added into Tekken 8 so players could have more things to accomplish. However, fans of the fighting game aren’t exactly thrilled with the Pass’ addition. With that in mind, here’s everything you need to know about the new Fight Pass.
Gamers who love to grind from the beginning can purchase Tekken 8’s Premium Pass for 600 Tekken Coins. From level 1, players will fight their way until level 60 to unlock all rewards.
For those looking to skip the grind, they may purchase the Premium Pass Plus for 2,000 Tekken Coins. Doing so will grant players an additional 20 levels to their Fight Pass. Keep in mind that players will no longer have access to the Premium Pass Plus once they reach level 41 or higher. Players can simply skip 20 levels from the beginning or grind the pass until level 40 before purchasing it.
Unfortunately, players can’t purchase exactly 600 Tekken Coins in-game. The best option is to purchase 1,050 Tekken Coins which cost around $10. As for the more expensive Premium Pass, players have the option to purchase 2,120 Tekken Coins which costs $12 approximately.
As mentioned earlier, Tekken 8 Fight Pass owners need to grind their way until level 60 to claim all rewards. Keep in mind that completing the Fight Pass will require players to own the Premium version. But that doesn’t mean there aren’t any cool rewards for Free pass users.
Here’s a full list of rewards for Tekken 8 Free Fight Pass users:
Here’s a list of rewards from levels 1 – 30 for Premium Fight Pass owners:
Here’s a list of rewards from levels 31 – 60 for Premium Fight Pass owners:
For Tekken 8’s Fight Pass, players will need to undergo a series of tasks to progress through the pass. There are two types of challenges in the game namely the Daily Challenges and Weekly Challenges. Keep in mind that the challenges can only be completed in online matches.
Daily Challenges typically squeeze out 600 EXP at most. In order to level up the Fight Pass, players must accumulate 1,000 EXP per level. Having that in mind, completing the Daily Challenges solely might slow down a player’s progress. It’s ideal for players to complete the Weekly Challenges as those give out the most EXP.
Unfortunately, if a player manages to complete all the challenges before the week concludes, they’ll need to wait for the following week for more quests.
As of the time of this writing, players have a little over a month and a half to complete the Fight Pass. All rewards for Round 1 will last until June 1, 2024.
Bandai Namco is yet to announce whether or not they’ll immediately launch the second Fight Pass after the first one’s conclusion. In the meantime, we can only assume that Round 2’s release could also be the launch of the next DLC character.
No information regarding the next fighter has come to the surface. However, considering that Eddy Gordo is a legacy character, it’s likely a new character could be next. Readers should take this information with a grain of salt though.
