Tekken 8 Producer Impressed with Waffle House Stage in Roblox

Tekken 8's producer, Katsuhiro Harada, expressed his impressions about a Roblox recreation of Bandai Namco's fighting game and its inclusion of a stage based on Waffle House. The Tekken series is well-known for having a number of fighters that span across the entire globe, with a number of cultures and martial arts styles being represented. Tekken 8's stages are diverse backdrops from different parts of the world, including Rome, France, Peru, and the United States of America.

This reputation has continued to perpetuate due to viral videos being shared of customers brawling with employees on the premises. While some of these requests are made in jest, others are wholeheartedly enthusiastic about the idea. While Harada has said no to the idea already, this hasn't stopped some fans from bringing the idea to life themselves.

Twitter user MemzDev posted a video on Twitter that was a recreation of Tekken 8's mechanics within Roblox. One Roblox avatar represented Kazuya Mishima and the other Jin Kazama, with the clip briefly demonstrating one of Kazuya Mishima's combo strings.

The tweet was enough to get the attention of Katsuhiro Harada, who replied to the tweet with a simple «Impressionnante!» Memz thanked Harada, saying it meant a lot to hear the praise coming from him.
