Bandai Namco has released a new Tekken 8 trailer showcasing Kuma, the fan-favorite bear character that’s appeared in every single Tekken game.
Kuma is a mainstay in the Tekken franchise, having appeared in pretty much every single Tekken game since its inception. The character is a giant bear that often has some of the most outlandish and hilarious cutscenes in the game’s history.
As for his fighting style, Kuma’s abilities are that of a giant bear, with many of his attacks consisting of giant swipes and punches, kicking enemies with his back legs, and using his trusty salmon as a club to attack enemies.
Check out the Tekken 8 trailer introducing Kuma below:
