Bandai Namco Entertainment has deployed a new patch for Tekken 8 today, which is a relatively small update but come with some key nerfs for Alisa and Dragunov, who are generally considered some of the strongest characters in the game. Dragunov in particular has been a problem since launch, as he was hugely overpowered and has dominated tournaments; even after some substantial nerfs, he’s still incredibly strong. You can read the full details in the Tekken 8 update 1.09 patch notes below.
