PUBG Mobile is Crossing Over With Tekken 8

Key Takeaways

  • PUBG Mobile launches crossover with Tekken 8, offering popular characters and themed items.
  • Players can unlock Jin Kazama, Kazuya Mishima, and Nina Williams through the collaboration.
  • The collaboration has sparked mixed reactions, as some players prefer authentic military action.

As a seasoned gamer with decades of experience under my belt, I must admit that the recent crossover between PUBG Mobile and Tekken 8 has left me somewhat divided. On one hand, I’ve always been a fan of both franchises, and the thought of wielding Jin Kazama’s power or Nina Williams’ agility in the battlefields of PUBG is tantalizing. However, as someone who grew up playing the original PUBG on PC, I can’t help but feel a pang of nostalgia for the authentic military action that made the game great.

In an exciting collaboration, PUBG Mobile has teamed up with the renowned fighting game, Tekken 8. This partnership allows players to select three iconic fighters from the Tekken series and a set of items themed around beloved Tekken characters. The new update for PUBG Mobile is now live!

In 2018, a mobile adaptation of the battle royale game known as “PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds,” often abbreviated as PUBG, was released. This came three months after the PC version hit the market. Since then, it has expanded to PlayStation and Xbox consoles. The mobile game shares many similarities with its PC counterpart, which continues to hold one of the top concurrent player peak records on Steam.

A fresh trailer for the themed Prize Path Event has been unveiled, revealing a partnership that offers several Tekken 8-themed collaboration items, starting October 12. This newly announced partnership lets PUBG Mobile users play as Jin Kazama, Kazuya Mishima, and Nina Williams from Tekken 8. Acquiring the 20-level Prize Pack with UC will instantly reward players with Jin Kazama’s PP-19 Bizon rifle. In this Prize Pack, three characters are included, but only two can be selected at levels 10 and 20 to receive their collaboration emote and outfit. The third character can be obtained by spending Prize Path Points or UC on the Tekken 8 Collaboration Crate, and completing 150 pulls from the crate ensures that players will get the chosen character.

  • Nina Williams

As a dedicated gamer, I can’t deny the excitement that cross-overs with the legendary Tekken series stir within me, particularly post-Tekken 7. For years, it seemed like the series had a thing against guest fighters, but characters such as Akuma from Street Fighter and Negan from The Walking Dead in Tekken 7 have proven that trend wrong.

Despite the launch of the new collaboration between PUBG Mobile, not everyone appears enthusiastic. Many multiplayer online shooter games use frequent crossover content as a means to keep their audiences interested, which often disappoints players seeking genuine military combat experiences. In fact, there have been several PUBG Mobile crossover events previously, ranging from game franchises like Resident Evil and Dragon Ball to the popular children’s song Baby Shark.
