Bandai Namco has unveiled the full Tekken 8 PC system requirements and overall, they're pretty manageable—but, just like fellow fighting game Mortal Kombat 1 earlier this year, it's going to suck up an awful lot of your PC's storage space.At the low end, you can get away with a Core i5 or Ryzen 5 1600 CPU, a GTX 1050 Ti, and "over 8GB" RAM, although the Steam page says 8GB will do you fine. But there's no overlooking that install footprint: SSDs are bigger and cheaper than ever, but 100GB's not nothing. That's especially true if you're a committed fighting game fan and want to have Street Fighter 6, Mortal Kombat 1, and Tekken 8 all installed at once, which would collectively eat up a whopping 260GB of space.Okay, back to the matter at hand—let's talk numbers. Here's what you're going to need to play Tekken 8, and what you can expect your rig to deliver:(This is where your PC gets to show its power, much like Tekken 8 director Katsuhiro Harada threatening to drop the hammer on some poor streamer who was just minding his own business in the closed network test.)Tekken 8 is set to launch on January 25, 2024, and is available for pre-purchase now on Steam

My issue with it isn't the 100GB, it's that 100€ won't be enough for that game.

I loved (and still do) the Tekken series, but I can't afford/won't pay 70€ now + another 100€ for the multiple Season passes that will come. I've skipped MK1 for the same reason. If you want me to buy a multiplayer game that will have multiple DLCs, maybe price it at like 30€. I have no doubts that they would sell 3x more (and ironically making a lot more money) if they priced those games at half the current ask.
