"I was happy at first. Then I was disappointed, betrayed, and sad. Fighting games are going the way of [Call of Duty], it seems. Unfortunately, Tekken 8 wants to be the Modern Warfare business model of the genre," one reviewer writes.
It's fun but just lol at adding [an] unannounced paid "battle pass" on [a] $110 game.
"They waited a month after release to add in-game purchases, presumably to avoid the negative press at launch," another review says. "Tired of getting fleeced by game companies."
Tekken 8 drooped under 40% on steam and became "mostly negative"

Fans Want To Take Things Even Further
With the score dropping so fast, many in the community are calling on other players to keep writing negative reviews. Right now, only the recent score is 'mostly negative' as the overall game still sits at 'mostly positive', and these players are hoping to change that.
"We can go lower," one player wrote. "Keep going until 'all reviews' are mostly negative," another added. "Gentlemen, we did it. Continue the war and warn other players about Scamco and their disrespect towards players," a third said.
It's not just Steam players who are trying to bring the score down. Many are also calling on the PlayStation community to do the same, all in a bid to make the backlash heard. "PS5 has it rated at 4.61/5 so overwhelmingly positive [...] We need to step our game up," one fan said.
But it's not just negative reviews that fans are calling for, some are going as far as to boycott the game. However, despite the controversy, it's still going strong with a 24-hour peak of over 11,000 players.
