A familiar threat has found itself plaguing the online lobbies of Tekken 8. They may not be common, but giant metal cubes, pink hats and other absurdly large objects are haunting Bandai Namco’s excellent new fighting game, just like they did in Tekken 7 and Soul Caliber 6.
The reason why this is such a problem for those who run into them is because the size of these objects obscures attacks and movement, making it hard to counter or predict what your opponent is going to do next. As of writing, there has been no official communication from Bandai Namco, game director Katsuhiro Harada, or producer Michael Murray on the matter.
Videos first started appearing online earlier in the week, as one user highlighted a giant metallic cube on Alisa, whereas earlier today another player took to Reddit to expose the same thing with a Yoshimitsu engulfed in a beautiful pink hat. While the latter player won, it’s not exactly a fair fight.
