Bandai Namco Entertainment America has officially unveiled Miary Zo, the final Season 2 DLC character for TEKKEN 8, now available in early access for Character Pass holders. The full release arrives on December 5, 2025, completing the Season 2 lineup and expanding the roster to 40 playable fighters. With her arrival comes a vibrant new stage inspired by Madagascar, bringing fresh gameplay flair to the critically acclaimed fighter.
Meet Miary Zo — The “Fighting God Reborn”
Miary Zo is a brand-new character created exclusively for TEKKEN 8, carrying the title “Fighting God Reborn.” Her backstory draws deeply from Madagascan myth, where she is prophesized to inherit the powers of the Silver Fighting God—a destiny foretold by her grandmother, a famed fortune-teller.
Born with ember-colored eyes and an unshakeable bond with nature, Miary Zo has a unique fighting identity shaped by Morengy, a traditional Madagascan martial art. Her combat flow incorporates:
- African martial traditions
- Agile, animal-inspired maneuvers
- Movements mimicking the wildlife she grew up observing
She enters battle accompanied by two energetic ring-tailed lemurs, Vanilla and Cacao, believed to be messengers of the Silver Fighting God. True to her playful personality, Miary Zo views every opponent not as an enemy, but as a “battle friend forever.”
Players can dive deeper into her moveset through the official starter guide video available on the TEKKEN YouTube channel.
New Stage: Baobab Horizon
Launching alongside Miary Zo is Baobab Horizon, a stunning new stage that pays tribute to Madagascar’s breathtaking landscapes. Players will clash among:
- towering ancient baobabs
- vibrant wildlife
- striking local architecture
This sun-drenched arena is available to Year 2 Character & Stage Pass owners, with standalone purchase options also available.
