Tekken 8 fans fear sucker punch addition of microtransaction shop is on the way

The news of an upcoming in-game shop for Tekken 8 in the near future has caused an uproar among fans. Players are voicing their frustration over Bandai Namco’s decision to introduce the shop post-launch, a move many see as dishonest. The unexpected addition has sparked accusations of deceit, leaving a sour note in the otherwise highly regarded game.

Tekken 8 has enjoyed a tremendously successful launch, with 2 million copies sold in three weeks. It is precisely because of its overwhelmingly positive reception that this new, unannounced, in-game shop has got the community fearing the worst. To quote just one out of many Tekken fans on Reddit, “Tekken 8 couldn’t just come out and be a good game, they had to add some bull**** business practices in post-launch.”
