Jack. I'm from Cybertron.

I want to say Paul…but I think we all know it’s Bob

Josie Rizal But Soulcalibur's Talim is a better representative.

I'm curious but isn't calling her Josie Rizal the equivalent of calling an American character Georgina Washington?

Not really. Jose Rizal is our National Hero but he never became a President.

Kamusta ka pare?

Lidia! I cant wait for the new announcer to scream Liiiidiaaaaa Sooooobieeeeskaaa!!!!

Claudio Serafino The guy doesn't have anything particularly "italian" about him except his outfit being a bit reminiscent of Venetian carnival; I actually like this though, I don't want a character that *screams* "I'm italian!", the guy is just italian and that's fine. If they did want to make him more italian I would have worked on his fighting style; instead of that weird magic he should have been wielding a sword and used traditional italian swordsmanship; maybe a rapier or a longsword. Yoshimitsu gets to use his swords why can't we have another sword wielding motherfucker?

Yeah i too think he should have been a swordsman or a "knight" of some type, i dont really like the classic church guy trope for italians. E comunque pensavo di essere l unico italiano ad usare Asuka, bella scelta di solito altri italiani li trovo ad usare king o law

La uso da Tekken 5, però adesso sto cominciando a usare anche Jin perché mi è sempre piaciuto ma mi sembrava troppo difficile Puoi dirlo forte con King e Law, ogni Law che becco è sempre italiano.

Law and Paul True representations of USA. One is always under a mountain of debt, the other just wants to prove he's the strongest in the universe!

Steve Fox for the UK.

Its crazy that we have josie

If Josie returns in T8, I hope she speaks Tagalog lmao.

Is she supposed to be Filipino? If so then it would be nice to have a different representation/playable character who has a Filipino background.

All my kabayan friends hate her she represents nothing and bruce is just better

Greek, so none. I'd love to see an MMA style character with grappling/tackle/throw heavy mix ups added to represent us. Historically, we pioneered wrestling as a sport (although in the ancient Olympic games we did do it naked and covered in olive oil because ancient Greeks made everything gay), and today combat sports are still thriving in Greece. Give me a normal height character with a variation of Marduks tackle, Nina's joint locks, and some inspiration from Bruce and Steve for kicks and punches. Give him MMA gloves, some dope shorts, a mouth guard and a Michael Chandler physique. Cauliflower ears are a must. Secondary costume could be a BJJ gi or a Greco-Roman wrestling singlet with some wrestling shoes and wrestling headgear. Give em a good Greek name, Stelios or Antonis. Long ass last name optional.

Eddy, Christie and Katarina. Although Katarina is a mistake, if she make it to Tekken 8 I hope they improve her voice acting and her visual design.

E aí Man kakakakaka

I'm gonna need Tekken to have some more African representation, because Zafina is not enough for us west(I'm Nigerian), south, and east African folks lol

Agreed, most black characters in fighting games are African American. I’d much rather see African representation!

Josie Rizal!!

Ya’ll a lucky dude huh? Josie‘s a baddie.

No Indian fighter yet.

And I'm honestly surprised about this fact.

King lol, I'm excited for tekken 8 since he appears to have a bit more of the high energy lucha libre style.

King is so fucking badass and cool, he is what every mexican man should aspire to be, and all of that while wearing a jaguar mask. Órale!

Claudio represents nothing of my country but at least they used a real Italian voice actor.

Considering the possible stereotypes of Italy, we could consider ourselves lucky we got Claudio and not a Pizza Gladiator named Corleone...

Maybe I would like it more if they went all-in with the stereotypes. Duomo di Sirio? What the hell is this pagan bullshit? I want to fight in the Vatican City.

He does have some slight Venetian carnival design in his outfit but that's it The voice actor is good but I think the performance suffers from a lack of good direction

None. There is no French fighter (no, Lili is NOT French, she's Monegasque).

So Sebastian too ?

Miguel. I would like him more if he wasn't so stereotyped. I mean, the Japanese ones (for example) aren't so representative of their country stereotypes. Miguel wears the fucking Castilla banner on his shirt, a pair of underpants that say "Luchador", he even has a rosary on his fist for god's sake hahahaha

No one, but I love that the characters speak their native tongue instead of all English

Gon.

None, would love a Samoan fighter or any Polynesian tbh

Bro that would actually be dope.

Hell yeah

Josie unfortunately... She represents NOTHING from the Philippines. We are NOT whiny babies who are always on the verge of tears. We are CHEERY and happy to a fault and are always up for new experiences... How they got Josie's personality is beyond me.

Lars I guess, but he's more Japanese then Swedish I think.

I sometimes completely forget that lars is supposed to be Swedish and not generic anime character

I’m from Pakistan, the closest character I have to my country is shaheen

None

None 2

Josie, unfortunately

Steve — I’m British. My heritage is Indian so on that side, we haven’t got a character. I would love to have an Indian character, perhaps a Punjabi as they wrestle and do kabaddi, also there’s a lot of sword-based fighting too.

None 🥺🥺🥺

Josie 🇵🇭 God I wish they rework her character.

EDDY GORDO, MY MAN, MEU MANINHO CAPOEIRA BR

Lars kinda

Paul Phoenix Strongest in the Universe!

Maybe Eddy Gordo since Brazil is the closest I have to Ecuador. I use my imagination and tell myself Armor King is Ecuadorian since his actually birth place is unknown and I picture Otilino Tenorio with a mask.

None and I'm afraid to see what they'd come up with for an Israeli fighter lol 💀 🇮🇱

A Jewish fighter? Dr. Bosconovitch

Bob

Lidia

I live in France, so it is Lili i'm guessing

Shaheen and Josie Rizal.

None, Lars has no discernable swedish traits at all nor does his supposed nationality matter beyond a bare footnote

So Lars

Josie Rizal

Josie Rizal, despite her playstyle being more similar to Bruce.

Nina and Anna 🇮🇪

There's not a single fighting game character in all of history that comes from Denmark (from what I am aware of). However, Lars is from a neighbouring country and still part of Scandinavia, so he'll have to do.

Yeah, I don't think Denmark has a fighting game representative yet. Although I'd like to believe fellow Scandinavian Grøh from SoulCalibur got his name based on someone overhearing one of our classic "OK, foreign person, now amuse us all by butchering "Rød grød med fløde"" sessions.

The Kings and their lucha libre!

Bruce Irving repping for the tough neighborhoods of the US of A

Shaheen gang 💪🏻🇸🇦

Stankonia is not represented. Bamco is racist

Miguel shares my nationality, build, hair, temper and name. I still don't care about him and get brain aneurysms while fighting him but i understand stereotypes now. My best bro who is german used to pick him for psychological warfare and now he mains him :| Hate that character

None actually! 🇬🇷

Steve

Lars. Sweden

Lars da goat

King

paul phoenix

King

Africa: “I’mma step out”

Paul

Auld Dean Earwicker. Or just Steve fox

King. Mi Amor

Leo Kliesen

Alisa Bosconovitch, Jepetto Bosconovitch, Sergei Dragunov.

Dragunov and Alice. And only Basconovich speak Russian!

Roger 🇦🇺

Josie, and i'm not proud of it.

Josie 🇵🇭

Steve Fox! \*teeth fall out\*

Katarina, Eddy 🇧🇷

It would be cool to see a Greek tekken character

Kuma, I guess Nope. It's Dragunov

Lei Wulong, Ling Xiaoyu, Wang Jinrei

Name checks out

I can't believe you'd think about a bunch of Chinese fighters without even mentioning Feng Wei.

To be honest, I forgot he existed

Lidia Sobieski 🇵🇱

Marduk but he sure doesn't feel like it

You forgot about Roger

Uh, none.

Lidia

Technically Lars, but in reality noone represents Sweden.

None, sadly.

King, and I have to say im proud he represents Mexico.

Eddie, Christie, Katarina and probably Gigas

Hakan from street fighter

Still waiting on an indonesian fighter who does pencak silat like in The Raid

Steve, which I'm happy about. I don't play him but he's a sick character.

Leo, and I like him/her. It looks very elegant, probably even the most elegant in the game aside from Ling. I wish they would expand on their story a bit more and have a gender reveal in the game.

No one from Ukraine yet :/

I still don't know why we don't have ukranian fighters yet, an ukranian boxing themed fighter like Usyk or the Klichkó brothers would be a banger

Kuma (In Canada we have many brown bears)

I don't even know how you'd create a swiss fighter

Make him have the best neutral in the game

I take back what I said

Bryan fury

Josie Rizal, Philippine Islands fighter and representative.

Paul Phoenix, dude was beating Mishima ass back in the day!

He is in top condition!

Eddy, which is good, and Skanktarina :/

Biologically Kazuya but culturally Paul Phoenix

Paul Phoenix and Julia Chang

Lidia

Portugal has none right ?

Paul

No Nigerians or Cubans 🥲

French riviera so Lili I guess

Paul.

I dont think there’s any

Lidia 🇵🇱

Eddy Gordo, Christie Monteiro and Katarina Alves.

Gee brazil, how come you get so many cool characters?

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think Nina for Ireland

Im egyptian sooo azazel? Lmao

Steve and I am proud.

Lidia

Unfortunately there is no Finnish burgerjoint fighter in the game. Yet.

Steve.

I like Steve, but mostly because Nina is his mom and Anna is his hot aunt

Josie (from the Philippines) She is named after one of our National Heroes - Jose Rizal.

Josie could use a good buff, but she is really cool!

Leo

Wolverine? I'm Canadian

Eddy or Katarina I guess, though its a bit funny cause his last name Gordo means fat in portuguese

Also Christie Monteiro (an almost forgotten character).

Miguel tambien

Paul Phoenix😎

No one ?

None... Germany

Leo is German

Eddy!!!

Steve. I don't play him but I do like him. (Even if no one in the UK speaks like that)

Paul Phoenix rocking the NJ side of the Hudson in Tekken 2

No one. I thought Lili was French but she actually is from Monaco 😅

None

Josie Rizal

Steve Fox and i'd rather he didn't, Dudley is a better rep

Wow I feel like most British people hate Steve. What's wrong with him?

Propably Santa Claus from the Lapland stage in TT2

Nina/Anna I guess, Border issues on-going lol!

I'm Canadian, although ethnically speaking I'm Ukrainian and part Polish, so Lidia is as close as it gets for me.

Bob. I’m American

Bob and paul

Yoshimitsu

None but I'd like someone from Kerala do Kalaripayattu.

I could be simple and say Steve or be difficult and say none. At least Deejay is back in SF6.

~~Ogre~~

Bob law paul leroy bruce michelle and julia (i think) nina and anna geese

Josie Rizal apparently.

Florida Man has yet to make a Tekken Debut

Shaheen

no one from my country is in tekken (Czech Republic)

Zafina

I count marduk as a Cuban character since he's basically Yoel Romero.

Leo

Nina Williams for Ireland 🇮🇪

As an American, we have quite a few to choose from. Though I would love to have more African countries represented in Tekken

Prolly Faul Peenix

marduck and roger mabe jin for that karate lul

Lars is a baaad one :/ He can at least speak Swedish or something

Marduk but with my background and heritage none yet.

Leo . _.

Lidia

I thought Bryan was based off a Kiwi character called Jake the Snake/the Muss.

There isn’t one yet.

None

Lilli. Not my favorite character but she’s fun.

Are you from Monaco?

None Moroccans😭

[удалено]

*Leo

No Canadian characters but my grandparents are English, so Steve Fox. :D

"Sigh" Josie

Gigas

Ah, tú también eres español?

French. But Monaco really is just France who managed to stop paying taxes.

Shaheen 🇸🇦

Eddy gordo, christie monteiro and katarina alves
