The undisputed strongest character from the Japanese fighting manga series 'Baki', Yujiro Hanma, is officially storming into the Tekken 8 roster.

Bandai Namco Entertainment dropped the bombshell during the 'Combo Breaker 2026' fighting game tournament in Chicago on the 25th. Yujiro Hanma was revealed as the final character of Season 3. Following in the footsteps of Kunimitsu, Bob, and Roger Jr., he is slated to join the playable roster early next year.

For the uninitiated, Yujiro Hanma is the father of the series protagonist, Baki Hanma, and stands as the pinnacle of power in his world. Known by monikers such as 'The World's Strongest Creature', 'The Ogre', and 'The Giant', he wields such immense influence that even the US President is little more than his puppet.

The teaser gives us a proper look at his hulking, muscle-bound frame in action. Alongside Yujiro, the game is set to introduce a new battle stage, 'SUBSEA LOCKDOWN', a high-security prison facility housing the world's most dangerous criminals.
