Who is Yujiro Hanma and why he's the perfect fit for Tekken 8

Bandai Namco announced Yujiro Hanma from Baki as Tekken 8’s Season 3 guest fighter at Combo Breaker 2026.

No gameplay was shown, and the character is planned to arrive in early 2027.

The crossover brings together two major martial-arts franchises and fits Tekken’s flashy, over-the-top tone.

The reveal may also have helped boost Tekken 8’s visibility and sales interest on Steam.
