Separate from Hair customization options, the cowlick and the Blue Puni can be equipped on any character, regardless of whether they look good wearing the items. The collab also includes an avatar T-shirt, background, and themed Title Plates. All of these items can be redeemed for free from the in-game Tekken Shop following the recent July 8, CEST update.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"&quot;Atelier Yumia&quot; \u00d7 &quot;TEKKEN 8&quot; Collaboration Teaser Video\" width=\"1160\" height=\"653\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/QyD40Yq7uP0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Though both Tekken 8\u2019s and Atelier Yumia\u2019s collaboration content are free, people have pointed out the difference in the amount of effort put into them. <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/AG_ABDULAZIZ\/status\/1942137832547529124\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Many Tekken fans are disappointed<\/a> that the collaboration does not include an Atelier Yumia outfit for Reina (which can be seen on the collaboration\u2019s promotional art). The lack of a collaboration outfit combined with <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/LiteEmUpJohnny\/status\/1942356342666141972\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the similarities between Reina and Yumia\u2019s hairstyles<\/a> makes it seem like Bandai Namco underdelivered.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More details regarding Atelier Yumia\u2019s Tekken 8 collaboration content will be released before its arrival on July 23, PDT. From what people have seen from the recent Tekken Summer Updates video, it looks like Koei Tecmo has more in store for Tekken fans. &nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tekken 8 is available for PC (Steam), PS5, and Xbox Series X|S.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Although it&#8217;s free, Tekken 8&#8217;s new collaboration with Atelier Yumia has not been received with much excitement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":67,"featured_media":49824,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_gspb_post_css":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[17],"class_list":["post-49822","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-japan-related-news"],"blocksy_meta":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
