The characters that might returns might have a specific color ever since DLC. Since games award color is orange, the only characters who had that specific color was Miguel. So, it's probably him

Last i saw akuma in tekken 7 is that he was sparring against kazuya but what happened after that left me in a cliff hanger situation

I'm personally hoping for no crossover or guest characters. A full roster of pure Tekken characters would be so awesome!

If Akuma return,yet I would better think about klonoa return as a cameo for Asuka or Jin portrait

Akuma is never coming back.... he's too controversial, and corporate companies avoid controversy.

Absolutely will implode the community, I'll be hyped just like in 2015 but not too keen to play against him, to this day I still play that T7 akuma reveal trailer song. In regards to Kiryu, the ship has sailed I don't think we'll ever see him due to VF6 being in development and yakuza was singlehandedly carrying and donning the legacy of virtua fighter, It's why some players knew virtua fighter in the first place.

The biggest thing to take away from this is that it's premiering at the game awards. So very high main stay media, a lot of people are watching all over the world. They would only do this to unveil a guest character. Primarily a guest character who is recognizable and iconic. That way people's reactions can be like "holy crap no way!!". Personally with the orange color I have a few FG characters I know could be associated with it. However for some reason I keep my body is telling me it's Scorpion from MK. Scorpion is iconic, from western media, the orange color is affiliated with MKs orange color and could be afflicted with scorpions fire element. I mean I could be wrong, but that's what my instinct is telling me.

It’s crazy! Imagine Akuma being the final DLC in both fighting games. Street Fighter 6 and Tekken 8. 12 is a weird number because Street Fighter x Tekken was released 12 years ago. Then yellow motion explains the theory of the 12. Weird right?

It can be either three of these characters. Kiryu Kazuma. [YAKUZA] Ohma Tokita. [KENGAN ASURA] Miguel Rojo. [TEKKEN] The color scheme fits them all.

🚨FINAL DLC CHARACTER SPECULATION🚨
Here’s something that’s been on my mind lately…
Almost 8 years ago, on December 12, 2015, Akuma was revealed as the first-ever real guest character from another series in a Tekken game. A crossover no one imagined could happen, yet it left a huge mark on Tekken 7’s legacy whether people loved or hated it.
Now, fast forward 8 years later to December 12, 2024, The Game Awards 2024 10th anniversary show. Tekken 8 is nominated for two awards, and it’s confirmed we’ll see the reveal of the final Season 1 DLC character. This 4th character has an orange aura, and with Tekken 8 built around the Heat system and meters, it got me thinking…
WHAT IF the devs pull off the ultimate move and bring back one of the most controversial characters in Tekken history? Yes, I’m talking about Akuma! He sparked endless debates in Tekken 7 since day 1. And whether people liked it or not, everyone was talking about him for years.
Could they really bring Akuma back on the exact anniversary of his debut 8 years ago? I mean, why not? It feels like the timing is just too perfect for them not to consider it. Remember, everyone was sure we’d never see Heihachi again. He was "100% completely dead" right? But look where we are now. Anything’s possible, even for Akuma one day it could happen!
Whether it’s going to be Akuma, Tifa, Kiryu… All I’m saying is, THIS TIMING is too interesting to just ignore it. Just putting my thoughts here and it's a wild theory.
One thing’s for sure though, the 4th and final DLC character HAS to top Heihachi’s WTF-level comeback and reveal. Honestly, I think Akuma fits all the criteria for that kind of reveal. Still, the chances might be slim because it feels almost TOO GOOD to happen right now.
But just imagine how the FGC would react. It’d be crazy and unexpected, especially with the majority wanting characters such as Tifa, Kiryu, or Baki.
We’ll find out soon enough. Let’s see what happens on December 12.
What do you think? Could we see the Raging Demon return one day in #TEKKEN8?
