For PS5 I think it does. It's Xbox and PC this week.
Ps5 is included too, I think new additions will be added for the PS5 side and everyone who's got it now will get in session 2 as well.

I really feed bad for Xbox users since they have it the worst on the beta session tier list imo >.>

How so? Tekken 8 has crossplay so Xbox players will still be able to match up with PS5 and PC.

Long gone are the "I only have Xbox too bad only 3 people play on xbox" days

Well if I had to rate between which console benefits, I'd say ps5 is OK since it's in both sessions and whoever had the first key code to play session 1 is gonna play session 2 so ps5 wins in terms of length of play and being the first to try the beta

PC imo has to wait but we imo have it best since we'll have access to Tekken 8 potentially long after the beta in a manner of speaking if the egg is cracked, and even if there's no real online after the beta ends and if it's cracked, we can still likely "cheat" by just going into that sample combo training thing and tech there xD plus mods may come shortly and other things may be found in the game files, and modders will likely work on porting the Tekken 8 meshes into Tekken 7 which I'm excited for although I'll be deleting it soon

Xbox just has it worse since there's no real pro for them, they have to wait as long as steam users but won't have any actual residual benefits for the wait that steam has but I'm just thinking from a technical stand point.

Did you guys sign up for the PC beta as well (hopefully under a different email address than that one you used for the PS5 version)? If so, hopefully we can run into each other. Also, more Asuka/Jun stuff.

I signed up for it under my 2 emails, I have a feeling getting a key will be easy since pretty much everyone besides one or 2 got it but I'm just making sure xD

So basically this is the reason why session 2 had very little people I know including myself seem to not receive codes and why scalpers are literally finger fucking keys at our expense:


Very upset and feel like i wasted my time, next time they need to use the EMEA first come first serve method for ALL regions, because they definitely cheated the USA CNT applicants out of a good time, trial and error my ass.

Welp, here goes ANOTHER weekend I have to ghost Twitter so I won't lose my composure watching everyone who already got in session 1 get in session 2. I shouldn't have to even resort to a CCNT but obviously that's the only option because the spam accounts selling codes for retail game price have what others should have in the first place -_-

Americas had random drawing with VIP codes for sites like IGN

What? I don't understand. Bamco sent me an email to sign-up for the T8 CNT, which I did. What the hell does a random drawing for sites like IGN have to do with it?

Idk, all I did was go on the site that had the sign up, give them my preferred console and email and that was it for me.

That's what I'm saying, I did exactly that.

My confusion is why was a random drawing done for game sites like IGN and the like. What was the point for even having a website sign up and giving them my email.

It wouldn't make any sense for them to have her 2P colour be a reference to that costume and then still add the costume it's referencing lol
It's very likely gone in favour of something else.
TFW when Harada tries to emulate the CORE VALUES mentality in his game.

Hopefully they'll do minor overhauls or revisions. I'd love an altered take on Lili's default white dress. But, I think they are considering doing that. Also does the beta end tomorrow?
It says it ends on Monday. And I think it'd also be good to have Kasumi's secondary outfit in DOA be upgraded to something that isn't a lazy palette-swap. (Not sure what the petals on the skirt are meant to symbolize, but I prefer the crane on her primary outfit instead.)

You were able to get away with that back in '96, but now, it seems like there's not much effort being put into updating the designs. And this doesn't apply to guest characters like Mai who faced similar restrictions in the KOF games or Nicole-458 (who's a Mark IV Spartan, anyway. And there wasn't as much variation in Halo armor sets in the Halo 2 era.). Just a nitpick, nothing more.

Looks like some files were already found for the game roster, saw this on Twitter:

Looks like Yoshimitsu is back in and Shaheen is too, a surprise since he was a very boring addition in T7 and he wasn't popular xD

Alisa, Zafina, and Steve also are coming back apparently although idk what they mean by default type A. Raven seems to be turning too but hopefully that means him and not Master Raven

well that didn't take long beta is only been up for an hour lmao

Yoshimitsu, Steve and Alisa were no brainers they are in literally every game it'd be weirder if they DIDN'T come back.
Zafina makes sense they gave her that whole Azazel yaoi hand in T7 but no story to really flesh it out now they have a chance too probably directly relates to Jin.
Seeing as it just says Raven this likely means the OG Wesley Snipes Raven good, M Raven was completely uneccessary and added nothing to the character.
The only real shocker here is Shaheen... dude is so underplayed and a nothing character that I often completely forget he even exists. They cut other more popular characters for low play counts all the time so why is he different?
