Final Fantasy 16's Clive Joins Tekken 8 Roster, Sparking Mixed Fan Reactions
Final Fantasy XVI's Clive Rosfield joins Tekken 8 as the final Season 1 DLC character, marking the second Final Fantasy crossover character in the Tekken series after Noctis from Final Fantasy XV in Tekken 7.
The surprise announcement came during The Game Awards, where Tekken 8 had just won Best Fighting Game. The gameplay trailer showcased Clive's unique interactions with Jin, the game's protagonist, incorporating his signature combat style from Final Fantasy XVI.
Release dates:
- December 17: Early access for Year 1 Character Pass holders
- December 20: General release for all players
Community reaction has been mixed, with some fans expressing disappointment that other Final Fantasy characters, particularly Tifa from Final Fantasy VII, weren't chosen instead. However, there's still potential for additional Final Fantasy characters in Season 2, which begins next year.
