Armor King, “The Dark Supernova”, is now available in TEKKEN 8

The iconic Armor King joins the fight today in TEKKEN 8. The “Dark Supernova” reignites as Armor King returns to the ring, consumed by vengeance for his fallen brother. Once seeking justice in The King of Iron Fist Tournament, fate denied him his revenge when the tournament vanished under G Corp’s reign of terror. Confronted by his rival, King, who tried to stop the cycle of hatred, Armor King refused to yield, vowing, “I will have my revenge. No matter what.” Now wielding a forbidden technique passed down by his brother, the heel wrestler joins the TEKKEN 8 roster, ready to settle the score once and for all.

He is the third character of the Pass, joining Anna, and Fahkurmam that have already been released, and will be followed by Miary Zo, which will be joining the roster on December 5th.
