Bandai Namco permitted us to see through the entire narrative of Unforgotten Echoes but limited what we could showcase and talk about to the first five chapters of the narrative. The narrative largely jumps around between a few key players of the Tekken Force, namely Jin Kazama and the current Prime Minister of Poland in the Tekken universe, Lidia Sobieska. Suppose you didn’t have the opportunity to purchase the additional character DLC that added Eddy Gordo and Lidia to the roster already, this will allow players to try these characters out for free as part of the story DLC. At only a couple of hours’ run time, it’s more of a brief appetizer to bringing Tekken’s big bad into the center stage again while leaving Yoshimitsu on the sidelines once more.
After a series of mandatory battles and reuniting some of the cast together, Tekken 8 Unforgotten Echoes rapidly brings players back face to face with Heihachi Mishima, a man who’s a mere shell of his former self. As Lidia, Yoshimitsu, and Eddy are brought together, they’re introduced to a sect of Tekken Monks secretly training in the forest for reasons best left for the player to discover. Among these monks, the most powerful of which are named after the four guardian spirits that protect Kyoto. If you’ve experienced some sort of Japanese mythology, chances are you’re at least remotely familiar with Genbu, Seiryu, et cetera. Heihachi Mishima has passively aligned himself with these monks as a much more meek version of himself, perhaps attributed to a bout of amnesia or perhaps regret towards seeing his sons routinely chucked into an active volcano time and time again. Heihachi has really let his hair down this time around and I couldn’t help but take note that he seemed to be taking a liking to Hulk Hogan’s hairstyle in his later years.
The ole Iron Hand wielder himself comes with a few new tricks up his sleeve when it comes to bringing him out in versus combat. He’ll also come out swinging with a new stage, Genmaji Temple, based on the secluded training grounds of the Tekken Monks, which features a nighttime variant with complementary mood lighting. As part of Heihachi’s new suite of abilities, the time spent training with the Tekken Monks has also unlocked some spicy tech to add to his already intimidating bag of tricks.
New for the godfather of Tekken are a complimentary pair of stances: Wind God and Thunder God. Each can be linked into as part of certain combos and augment his already impressive moveset with some additional tools. Heihachi has also been granted a unique powered-up state known as the Warrior Instinct that increases the amount of damage he can deal to gray damage, or Recoverable Damage along with changing up the properties on select moves. This comes with a trade-off with only being able to be activated after going into Heat mode three times in a match, so this may be the trump card players might need to come back like a level-3 X-Factor. If reliably pulling off an Electric Wind God Fist is something that’s still outside of your muscle memory, hitting it in Warrior Instinct might even eliminate the need for frame-perfect execution.
