Yeah it’s about time his sword ACTUALLY started stealing people’s souls/life force/energy in some meaningful way, even if it’s purely visual.

Yoshimitsu looks amazing with his combined moveset from Tekken/Soul Calibur and his rage art; and love his rivalry intro with Bryan after the events of T5!
The Yoshimitsu skins can be a hit or a miss depending on the game. This one looks like a combination of the two Yoshimitsu skins of Tekken 3, and it looks phenomenal!
I remember Spyro and Tekken 2 were the first 2 games I got with a PS1 when I was a kid. I recently turned 30 and I don't even own a console anymore but this came up in my feed and the character names, the sound effects, the trick moves all came flooding back. Nostalgia hits hard, but I smile knowing some kid out there now will be able to get lost in the lore and in learning all the little quirky moves each character has, just the way I did and will get so much enjoyment from the Tekken franchise as me and you did.

Yoshimitsu is always one of the coolest and most fun Tekken characters to watch. His new design is great, it’s very clearly inspired by his Tekken 3 one and I like that he seems to have some Soul Calibur moves now too. Which is a good move seeing as the future of the Soul Calibur series is up in the air.

I love Yoshimitsu ... He was always so freaking awsum and love him when he cross worlds to Soul Calibur ... Love when he does his sword dance😂😂 he's gonna be a deadly foe
Love the fact that in the design choice: there's a visual homage to his Tekken 3 model.. which was the most iconic model in terms of outfit, voice and theme music (imo), well done Bamco 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾
That. Was. AMAZING. My goodness, one of the trailers I was most eager to see and it delivered. There is absolutely nothing from him that I disliked or thought was "meh" that he brought with him and demonstrated as he returned. One of the best looking rage arts, and his design! It's simple yet really cool and not overly designed, just like in Tekken 3 and 4, which is the way I really like it. I think it is finally time to main him again in Tekken. I only used him a lot in Tekken 3, Tekken 4, and the Soul Calibur games.
Hands down, the most badass look ever for Yoshi yet imo. It takes the best qualities of his T3 look, gives it a more demonic spin, and adds more ninja and even Guyver elements into the mix. Somebody please give this man his own action game spin-off already (preferably in the style of Ninja Gaiden). Seriously, this costume is da bomb. Everything looks seriously cool in all the right ways and has none of the silly elements of his previous costumes from T4 to 7.
Agreed. And the worst is any intro with Azucena. I swear, I can't stand her one-note "coffee is my only personality" persona... Leo's intro with her is just cringe.
Love the resemblance of his Tekken 3 design. I do hope we get a chance to bring back his Tekken 4 alt costume. That one by far was my favorite Yoshimitsu design

@@slimthugsta2k2 "we would like for the mystique to stay forever" weird that he just tried to speak for everyone. While I too like the mystique, I like the idea of at least giving us some more info while keeping them mysterious, perhaps making them even more so (the whole "the more you know the more you don't know" thing)
It would ruin the character. Not everything needs to be fully fleshed out until any creativity or originality runs dry. Especially if we're talking about something with mystique as a core part of its essence.
I think they should play with more lore to him. They could say that Yoshimitsu is indeed a race, explaining the lots of different models trough time. And maybe putting one of them as the final boss. That would be cool!
Yessss finally yoshi has always been my fav character since Tekken 3 I love the direction they took with his new design can’t wait to play this masterpiece!!! 😆
I was gonna say...he just looks like yoshimitsu looks, more modern, but basically very similar...then I remembered Tekken 3 was the last tekken I played a lot ^^ and now Im thinking to get T8 more and more.

Yoshimitsu has one of the best designs in fighting games.Great to see him back.
Yoshimitsu is looking fire in this one and also love that they included a special intro with Brian. Basically a nod back to the revenge plot from T5.
I love Yoshimitsu ... He was always so freaking awsum and love him when he cross worlds to Soul Calibur ... Love when he does his sword dance😂😂 he's gonna be a deadly foe
Love the fact that in the design choice: there's a visual homage to his Tekken 3 model..
which was the most iconic model in terms of outfit, voice and theme music (imo), well done Bamco 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾
The Space Ninja returns more badass than ever!!!
That. Was. AMAZING. My goodness, one of the trailers I was most eager to see and it delivered. There is absolutely nothing from him that I disliked or thought was "meh" that he brought with him and demonstrated as he returned. One of the best looking rage arts, and his design! It's simple yet really cool and not overly designed, just like in Tekken 3 and 4, which is the way I really like it. I think it is finally time to main him again in Tekken. I only used him a lot in Tekken 3, Tekken 4, and the Soul Calibur games.
The Golden Hawaiian Swordsman Dragon HIGHLY AGREES!!!! THIS version of Yoshimitsu is at his MOST BADASS!!!!👒🗡️🐉😎👍
Hands down, the most badass look ever for Yoshi yet imo. It takes the best qualities of his T3 look, gives it a more demonic spin, and adds more ninja and even Guyver elements into the mix. Somebody please give this man his own action game spin-off already (preferably in the style of Ninja Gaiden).
Seriously, this costume is da bomb. Everything looks seriously cool in all the right ways and has none of the silly elements of his previous costumes from T4 to 7.
Yoshimitsu's design looks amazing
The color palette really suits him well. It is up there between the best designs.
That yoshimitsu lore playing out at the end is so alluringly epic! I'm drawn more to yoshimitsu story now more than ever haha!
Yoshimitsu and Bryan have the best interaction/ intro in the game hands down
Agreed. And the worst is any intro with Azucena. I swear, I can't stand her one-note "coffee is my only personality" persona... Leo's intro with her is just cringe.
Yeah shes cringe. I do not look forward to any match with that annoying ass character
It's also a reference tô their endings in Tekken 5
That katana and minigun clash is probably the coolest pre-fight intro I've ever seen in a fighting game, it just gets right to business
The way he deflects those bullets was SICK!!!
Reminds me of Tekken 3 Yoshimitsu. A ninja with finesse and power .
Love the resemblance of his Tekken 3 design. I do hope we get a chance to bring back his Tekken 4 alt costume. That one by far was my favorite Yoshimitsu design
Finally someone gives beetle Yoshimitsu love they deserve
Reminds me of his Tekken 3 form but even more futuristic. That rage art is straight outta samurai showdown 🔥🔥🔥
I was about to write the same thing, glad that i'm not the only one that sees that, i like His Tekken 3 form so this feels nostalgic
Straight outtainto Tekken 8 Kek samurai showdown
Tekken is incomplete without Yoshimitsu
Bluds a T1 character he aint ever leaving
Yep this trailer confirmed me buyin' it lol.
About time this guy's moveset was more actually using his sword than just holding it in his hand while he punches
Yoshimitsu always has the coolest design in both tekken and soulcalibur!
God Bless Namco for create Yoshimitsu
do you think we will get Soul Calibur 7 in a couple of years?
@@joelbalbuena26yep, soulcalibur vi sold well, bandai namco always release tekken for first and then soulcalibur, we will probably get some info at the beginning of jenuary 2025 after the tekken 8 hype cooled down
@@joelbalbuena26 yeah I think so! They usually alternate releases since it's the same company and they don't want direct competition. SC6 didn't get announced until Tekken 7 was in it's second season of DLC.
I love how the sword is slowly absorbing the enemy's life. Kinda reminds me of Onimusha.
Thats how it used to function but they changed it after tekken 4. You used to be able to rob the opponents attacks like death fist or electrics and use it against them 🥴
Soul Calibur introduced that to his character and it fits really well. I'm glad they're carrying over that mechanic into Tekken.
Question, who is”ONIMUSHA” your talking about?
Reminds me of Ragna's Drive from the Blazblue games.
“This is Katana. She's got my back. I would advise not getting killed by her. Her sword traps the souls of its victims.”
Can't have Tekken without him
Tekken is NOT Tekken without Yoshimitsu
Damn straight...
I love the fact that he is the only character who is using a sword in a fighting game where everyone is fighting barehanded 😂
@@Omega-jg4oq Well we got Victor now so we can have epic sword fights. Let's not forget the characters that use firearms in their movesets as well.
What about Eddy?
Yoshi ! G.O.A.T ❤️❤️
He looks so sick! This is definitely my favorite design iteration of him by far
If only he had his lightsaber
@@Xenethis254 you forgetting customization my boy he definitely will
Yoshimitsu's design is fucking sick
I loved his T4 Bugsamurai design the most, but even the T7 Squid grew on me.
This one is just magnificent.
Yeah, it looks like this should his Tekken 3 redesign, no lie!
Yoshimitsu never dissapoints us 🔥🔥
And neither does his swordsmanship!!!!👒🗡️🐉😎👍
Out of all the fighters releasing, i'm most excited to use big man Yoshimitsu
Just think, it’s just the vanilla roster
0:58
Play it on 0.25
Look at his right Hand.
So much detail in this game.
This just brings a GIANT smile to my face, the sword effects FEEL so much more impactful. BEST Yoshimutsu to date!!
Yoshi is definitely gonna get the respect he deserves this time around💪🏾
Nothing in life is certain. except Yoshimitsu in a tekken game. GOAT!
Honestly, namco really should consider a Yoshimitsu title. So much to build upon if they do it right.
Such an ill, mysterious character
no we would like for the mystique to stay forever
@@guioaca7 lol we or you?
@@slimthugsta2k2 "we would like for the mystique to stay forever" weird that he just tried to speak for everyone. While I too like the mystique, I like the idea of at least giving us some more info while keeping them mysterious, perhaps making them even more so (the whole "the more you know the more you don't know" thing)
It would ruin the character. Not everything needs to be fully fleshed out until any creativity or originality runs dry. Especially if we're talking about something with mystique as a core part of its essence.
I think they should play with more lore to him. They could say that Yoshimitsu is indeed a race, explaining the lots of different models trough time. And maybe putting one of them as the final boss. That would be cool!
Yessss finally yoshi has always been my fav character since Tekken 3 I love the direction they took with his new design can’t wait to play this masterpiece!!! 😆
Can’t have a tekken game without this fun and amazing character.
The sickest Yoshimitsu to date, mega hype
Thank you Namco
@otdreamer193-xy1uc The Space Ninja returns more badass than ever!!!
They did him justice with this look
I love the inspiration they are taking with his design in T8, you can definitely see allot of elements from his design in T3.
Yeah i thought the same 😂 and also they put the cursed swords like in T6, nice
@@fredcomms_Nice appreciation there. Many people never played Tekken 6 so they won't know about this
Yoshimitsu's design is freaking awesome
I was gonna say...he just looks like yoshimitsu looks, more modern, but basically very similar...then I remembered Tekken 3 was the last tekken I played a lot ^^ and now Im thinking to get T8 more and more.
They have NEVER once missed with Yoshimitsu's design, he always looks so damn cool dude. And that stage is just super dope. Welcome back, Legendary Swordsman! 🎉
You took long enough to appear, Yoshimitsu
Ehhhh I think 5's main design was kind of lame, but his 2p was one of his best looks so it's even.
@@LAZY-RUBY yoshimitsu with a large ass hat is always the way to go
Yoshimitsu has always been one of my mains and this will be no different.
When i first got into fighting games when i was younger, I played Yoshimitsu for the first time in Soul Calibur 4 and I have always loved his move sets/combos. They were so unique to me. I'm about to be 30 now and I still get hyped seeing him in Tekken as well.
Yoshimitsu will always be awesome.
