Bandai Namco has released the first full-length gameplay trailer for Madagascan newcomer Miary Zo in Tekken 8, who will launch first for Season 2 Character Pass owners on 1st December.
Everyone else will get access to the character from 4th December.
As seems fitting for someone from Madagascar, a lot of Miary’s moves are inspired by wildlife. The gameplay trailer actually starts relatively tame, but it’s not long before she’s summoning a magical hydra on her arm.
Other interesting mechanics glimpsed in the trailer include the ability to wall-jump off the boundaries of the stage, creating new combo opportunities.
The character’s fighting style is inspired by Moraingy, which actually is a real-life Madagascan form of martial arts. Other African influences have been incorporated here, too.
The newcomer will be accompanied by a fresh stage named Baobab Horizon, which features a setting sun and a watering hole in the background.
Personally, we’re not all that inspired by Miary’s design – she’s your typical busty female fighting game character. But her move set does look quite interesting, and we’re sure she’ll be fun to play.
This of course concludes the Season 2 Character Pass, which, honestly, has attracted a mixed response outside of Armor King.
How are you feeling about the DLC lineup for Season 2? Let us know below.
