The iconic fighting game franchise ‘Tekken‘ has always captivated fans with its awe-inspiring fighting mechanics, impressive visuals, and unique storyline. And fans will seem to be more captivated as the eighth main game of this iconic series by Bandai Namco Entertainment is coming pretty soon. Yes, you read it right! Tekken 8 is expected to be released in early 2024 for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X and S.

Fans are already hyped up about this upcoming title. And this hype has reached a new level as Tekken 8 has announced a brand new character in their roster. So, let’s dive in and find every aspect of this character.

Azucena: The Coffee Queen is Here

The official YouTube channel of Bandai Namco has revealed the character Azucena with a gameplay trailer. Azucena is a brand-new character in the Tekken universe. Her full name is Azucena Milagros Ortiz Castillo. This character is from Peru. She is also known as the coffee queen. In the trailer, we can see that she runs a Peruvian coffee plantation called Ortiz Farm.

As the only child of a Peruvian family, Azucena breaks into the MMA world. This character has already gained love from Tekken fans for her cheerful attitude and fearless MMA moves. Another reason for her popularity is her unique dressing sense—a funky outfit, a sporty look, and groovy sneakers and hairstyle. Besides having a modern appearance, she also carries the symbol of the ancient Peruvian-Incan martial arts tradition.

Her signature move is the Libertador, a pose that provokes the opponent. She shifts into a stance where she can no longer block but instead instinctively detects and dodges her opponent’s high and low attacks.

We also learned an interesting fact about Azucena’s love affair with Coffee, which, as a caretaker of a coffee plantation farm, is quite natural. In this trailer, we see her appreciate coffee with catchphrases like “Coffee is second to none”, and “the tastiest drink in the world is coffee or nothing.”  The quirky character has fans of the fighter game on the edge of their seats.
