Up until now, the main menu ofTekken 8has shown the most recently released DLC character. This remains the case with the press start screen, although as ofthe game’s v1.08.01 update, players can customize the main menu to show any character they like, including DLC characters that they haven’t yet paid to unlock.
The process for choosing a new main menu character inTekken 8is actually relatively straightforward, although finding the right menu through which to do so can be a little tricky. Players may also be interested to learn how to return to the default setting, or how to customize the appearance of the character that they end up choosing.
How to Change Main Menu Character in Tekken 8
In order to change the character displayed on the main menu,Tekken 8players will need to make their way to theScreen Settingsmenu, which can be found around halfway down the game’s main Options menu. From there, they’ll want to chooseMain Menu Character Display Settings, after which, it’s a simple case of choosing the character they want in the background of the menu. They can even choose which costume they want the character to wear, which should come as good news for those who went to the trouble ofunlocking every playable character’s Alternate B outfit.
As mentioned above, changing the Main Menu Character inTekken 8will not have an impact on the press start screen, which will continue to show the most recently releasedDLC character forTekken 8.
How to Revert to Default Settings
Although there is an option to restore default settings in the Screen Settings menu, doing so will restore all screen settings to their default rather than just the main menu character. To get around this, players shouldreturn to the Main Menu Character Display Settings menu and choose the most recently releasedTekken 8DLC character. Doing so will lead to the Character setting returning to Default, allowing the main menu character to be updated automatically the next timea playable character is released forTekken 8.
