I will always love 2 things about King. 1: he only ever communicates in roars and growls 2: Everyone can understand him.

[@zephyr244]

Wait what really?

[@danteopen]

3: he takes care off orphans

[@davi0121]

King embodies so many pro wrestlers; His mask and general style is based on the Tiger Masks, particularly the first and second Tiger Masks; Satoru Sayama and Mitsuharu Misawa, whose moves are also reflected in King's moveset, such as Sayama's Sobat Kick or Misawa's hard elbows and the Emerald Flowsion. His backstory of fighting to raise money for his orphanage is based on the real life story of a priest turned luchador named Fray Tormenta, whose story also loosely inspired Nacho Libre. And the guy responsible for actually mocapping the moves for King and bringing the insanity to life is legendary wrestler, the Murder Grandpa, Minoru Suzuki, who is also one of the founding fathers of modern MMA. King isn't just a pro wrestler, he is pro wrestling itself and I've always loved that about him. No secret about who I'm maining, huh? 🤣

[@Couldbedumber]

KING IS MOCAPPED BY MURDER GRANDPA??? Did he mocap his rainmaker for tekken 7? Cuz that’d be hilarious just seeing suzuki hitting the nastiest rainmaker in a full mocap outfit 😂😂

For anyone wondering why he has that lock as his rage art. It's because it's a throwback reference to Tekken 2 where he had the octopus stretch. It was an insta-kill throw he had. I love the little references Bamco is doing with their rage arts.

The character that got me interested in Tekken. I’ll never forget the first time I saw people play him in Tekken 3 in the arcade. I was a big wrestling fan back then so seeing him doing all kinds of grappling chains blew me away and made me want to learn playing him. And that’s how I got into Tekken.

The legendary Shining Torpedo! I think it’s been in the games since Tekken 6.

[@GoronsCave]

Yeah that move that's in Tekken 7 that every king uses for a wall splat is cool. Nice to see people who never played the game before checking it out for the first time.

[@RoaringTide]

@@GoronsCave Ah it's already a thing? I'm not new to Tekken (3 was my first), but I haven't played 7 in ages so I wasn't sure. I main Dragunov.

[@kevinbarrera5321]

Dude that running wizzard was gorgeous!!!

[@kingdemonte7346]

King has the best wall combo in the game I'm not gonna sugar coat it 😭 0:50

[@HadesHatredEdge]

I have no idea who is in charge of character gameplay but they are knocking it out of the park. King has never looked so damn good.

[@bendunnaway]

That Cape Tho.

[@VandelayH]

King = the GOAT.

[@jslane41]

As a King main, this legit gave me chills. I absolutely love how he cuts a promo, then completely no-sells a power punch from Paul Phoenix.

[@jordancrooks6752]

I mean king is tough man

[@shoden]

As King main, I got chills too >_< damn I'm excited for Tekken!

You can see how popular King is. He got more views in one day than the other characters reveals did in three. He’s gonna become the most viewed character reveal video so far. 😂

[@PhenomenalTUK]

Can only see Yoshimitsu topping him

[@killinghawkz]

Jin still has the most and they keep going up

[@ziakolobo]

Thats i said

[@azzor4134]

his trailer is the best so far, too

[@wc999]

tbh yea all of them are nearly million+

[@nickelisblind]

I ain't ever played tekken but King id a menace, wth are thode combos

[@Kingsman63]

King ❤

[@inzanity490]

I love that they brought back the Arena stage with new visuals and a way bigger crowd. The stage feels a lot more alive this time. Also seems like ever since Tag 2, they decided to make it a tradition that every Tekken game onwards gets an Arena stage.

[@anseldeangelo]

I. AM. SPEECHLESS!!!!!!!!! King’s new animations, the GORGEOUS and dynamic stage, and his Rage Art is just absolutely PERFECT!!!! This is truly shaping up to be the BEST Tekken we’ve had so far!!!!! I am a proud fan!!!!!

[@LunarEdge7]

_I. AM. SPEECHLESS!!*_ FTFY

[@ironviper72]

Good thing King was able to give a speech for you

[@tmcttf8087]

Let's see.

[@RainDance444]

I like the fact that this video is single most viewed video of this channel recently 😊 Gotta love king mains here ❤

[@Apollyon_Rev911]

Going to get into this game for King. We'll see where it goes from there.

[@TheElementsAreWithMe]

King is fun to play as always, and it seems even now, he just keeps getting better. Looking forward to this more and more now.

[@Lion-O-Richie2040]

He’s gonna be a problem for sure.

I have been waiting for this one. Already watched it through 5 times. King is my fav tekken character because of the design and personality and they cranked that up to 11 this time around. I can't contain my excitement!

[@spartahannibal1668]

That RKO animation is insane

My boy has the Pedigree and RKO?! KING is delivering pain with style and I absolutely love it can't wait to see Lil Majin reaction to this

Always loved this character since ive played tekken 1 as a little kid. Will always be my main, no matter how hard I suck at fighting games.

[@CJTranceAddiction]

This fucking trance music is just unreal. I can't get enough of it!!!

[@Foxy-r5g]

I loved the part where King picked up the microphone to say It's king'ing time and then proceeded to king all over the competition. Truly moving stuff😢.

The KING of iron fist tournament

[@rheyshassell585]

Once again king looks like he's gonna be an absolute beast. Love it

[@justnubz]

This is definitely an improvement from 7, they really made him more of a wrestler then he already is. The little things like the mic and his move (the stage also helped) convince me that, they really made KING the King of Wrestling (pun intended)

[@sadetwizelve]

He's the best character so far

[@BURRDAWG_]

But did they improve the movement?

[@BURRDAWG_]

@Kekker none of the clips that have came out show movement just strings. And I know atleast 50 people who won't be tekken 8 if the movement is the same as tekken 7

[@Professor2EZ]

It's called The KING of Iron First Tournament right? 😅

[@Yunglex313]

Before he had a more Lucha Libre style, cause you know, Mexican Masked Wrestler. Now he's incorporated more WWE style moves.
