Tekken 8 Patch Notes V2.03.02
Bandai Namco has deployed Tekken 8 patch v2.03.02, rolled out globally on July 22, 2025. Unlike major seasonal updates, this release focuses on addressing urgent issues that have emerged in the previous patch through rapid bug fixes and corrective measures. With key competitive events approaching, the development team prioritized game stability and quickly addressed flaws that affected gameplay balance and match experience.
# Impact of the Update
The following changes will take effect in each mode and feature after the update:
* DOWNLOADED REPLAYS / MY REPLAY & TIPS
– Replay data created before the update will no longer be playable.
* ONLINE REPLAY
– All replay data created before the update will be deleted.
* SUPER GHOST BATTLE / GHOST MATCH / Ghost vs Ghost
– The behavior and performance adjustments applied to each character after the update will be reflected in ghost data.
– Ghost data will not be deleted.
The details of the update are as follows:
# RANKED MATCH
* Adjustment to Matching Specifications
– We have recognized that due to changes in the rank distribution over time since the start of Season 2, players in certain rank ranges are experiencing “longer-than-expected matchmaking times.”
– To alleviate this issue, we will adjust the “internal matchmaking conditions” to shorten the time it takes to expand the search range.
– We will continue to monitor the situation after this adjustment and will further tune and improve matchmaking as necessary.
# Playable Characters
* Character Move Behavior Fixes and Balance Adjustments
We have corrected unintended behavior changes introduced in the previous update (Ver.2.03.01), issues that were insufficiently addressed, and bugs that were causing significant disadvantages to players, based on the judgment that early response was necessary.
* Future Updates
No balance adjustments are planned for the next update (Ver.2.04) in August, as several major esports tournaments are scheduled that month.
From Ver.2.05, scheduled for release in September, the updates will primarily focus on bug fixes and similar improvements.
# Bug Fixes
– Fixed an issue in “TEKKEN FIGHT LOUNGE” where “COMMENTS” would sometimes not display correctly when selecting “Players in the Lounge” from the “LOUNGE MENU.”
