Tekken 8's devs have confirmed the arrival of a "Tekken Shop" that will contain in-game purchases, leaving players divided.

I guess this is probably going to be the new shitty norm with bait and switch for reviews then nickel and dime afterwards.

      I’m not seeing why that’s a problem, if it’s still just cosmetics.

      Also, anybody who expected a AAA fighting game to not have cosmetic MTX in 2024 probably isn’t that keen on the fighting game scene to begin with. That’s just how the genre works these days; the players want continuous balance patches as new tech and exploits are discovered, and that comes at a cost. If you think $70 is enough for potentially years of continued support and updates, then you haven’t been keeping up with the economy’s effects on the gaming industry.
