Who the fuck is Leroy? That Snoop Dogg?

Asuka is such a cutie, best post-3 Tekken girl.

They made new characters as DLC? I thought they just brought back returning characters.

What an odd way to introduce a character to the series.

Tekken 7 is the only game in the series to have dlc it seems.

He broke the game early on. If they add another street Fighter character I want them to add chun li instead.

I hope they bring back Lidia for 8, she deserves more mainstream recognition in the series.

Don't really play fighting games any longer, but if I did, I'd main Leroy.

PUPPY.

I like everything about Leroy except the statue. He just seemed like the kind of guy who wouldn't really want a statue of himself.

Aye - not counting guest characters like Noctis, Negan and Geese, there was Leroy, Lidia and Fahkumram. And technically Kunimitsu, I guess, as she's a new character taking on an existing mantle.

I thought they said characters would have their old costumes available.

Then again, I have no idea where I heard that from or if it's even true, therefore I could be completely wrong lmao

Harada said the old costumes were in. Didnt say how many though, Tekken 7 had I think 4 for each character.

Ooh, you bout to get this work!

xD
(seriously, why didn't they use that song from his T7 trailer again)

Glad Leroy's back. I figured he was popular enough despite his controversial gameplay. I just hope that he's still really good but not broken-tier like he was in T7. Also hoping to see more Sugar (his dog).

Also cool that Asuka is confirmed but there was never really a doubt that she'd be in, given her well established popularity. I'm not even sure what her default costume is supposed to be here but I'm not too concerned since she's kind of middle of the pack for characters that I actually care about.

Of course T-Pain would go all out on this assignment but man he must've spent like 12hrs wearing all that, too good.

The battle for fighter of 2023 between Tekken 8 and SF6 just got hotter o.O

He was the most broken character in the game at one point.

Can't remember which Evo Japan it was but there was one where Top 8 was like 6 Leroys and people were not happy lol

meh every character is controversial and "broken" when 5-10 people main them with excellence online.

Law was considered broken too for a little while because his fist combos were too relentless to block...until people figured out his open windows and then he became a non-discussion ever since.

That's true, but I feel like a lot of "broken" characters just had a couple overtuned tools and a phase where people just had to learn the matchup.

Leroy however legitimately had the best version of every tool in the game. If your character was good at something, 99% chance Leroy was better at it.

And one of those top 8s only experience playing Leroy was fucking around a couple of minutes before tourney time. Dude's broken, and hopefully Tekken 8 will give him some desperately needed nerfs.
