A kangaroo will be joining the fray in Tekken 8! Bandai Namco unveils Roger Jr. for Season 3

Bandai Namco has revealed the next Season 3 fighter for Tekken 8: Roger Jr., the boxing kangaroo, is set to join the roster this autumn, according to the roadmap. Strictly speaking, there are actually two kangaroos joining the fray.

Pouch open, gloves on: Bandai Namco is sending Roger Jr. into the ring as the next character for Season 3 of Tekken 8. According to the roadmap, the boxing kangaroo – along with his boxing sidekick tucked away in his pouch – will be joining the fray this autumn.

Tekken 8 is a fighting game featuring 3D duels, in which you control a fighter of your choice through intense brawls. With the kangaroo, the cast expands by one – or rather, two – characters who are guaranteed to cause not only bruises but also a few chuckles. Find out more here in the Roger Jr. introduction video.
