The fact that King got the most views of all the character trailers of Tekken 8 proves that King is the most popular Tekken character.

@@Hilversumborn It's a pity that, just like Paul, he went from being one of the strongest characters in the entire verse to just a journeyman at best. I know that the King introduced since Tekken 3 is actually one of the orphanage kids who took up the torch of the original after he died (the one that Loresmith shows in this video as a nice fanservice), but still I think he deserves some moments to shine in canon.

These are great, keep them coming. It gives the non Mishima characters much needed backstory. Also Alucard being the narrator is a nice throwback to Tekken 5.

How did he get so jacked though?? The priests must have fed him protein rich foods 😂

Hope there will be more of these for the Mishimas, Laws, Marduk, Hwaoarang and Baek, Dragunov, Kunimitsu, among others.

My favorite of this Teken series so far. The introduction is especially touching. As a Latin American, I appreciate the detail of making the priest speak Spanish (and with a Mexican sounding accent!) instead of English, or worse, some weird Spanglish lol. I thought this one was going to be tough due to the prompts required to render a character as "unique" as King, but surprisingly whatever Gen AI you used did quite well (it even nailed his "family man" attire).

@TheLoresmith

I like to honour the countries and cultures the characters come from because I think that’s such a cool aspect of the franchise, the variety. I only speak English so i can’t really authenticate, i did try to make a point give him a Mexican accent though, I hope it came across well enough because I can’t tell! 😫 Honestly, yeah it was tough, it took a while to do king, with his “unique” look as you say. you can probably see, it’s not perfect, but it’s something at least 😂 his freaking jaguar head! probably one of the hardest characters, I have a feeling yoshimitsu will be a pain too.
