The international elite of TEKKEN esports gathers in France to battle for the TWT 2025 points and the EWC 2025 qualification spots.

It feels like TEKKEN 8 has been in the middle of big changes since the disastrous release of Season 2. The harsh period is over with an emergency patch and a couple of substantial updates — to fix the fighting game. The next portion of big adjustments is planned for July 7. The pro community doesn’t stop competing even with this rollercoaster, though.

Two big leagues are happening right now. The TEKKEN 8 Esports World Cup 2025 (EWC 2025) has an intense qualification series, with the final event coming in the middle of August. The official TEKKEN World Tour 2025 (TWT 2025) conducts many tournaments: for players to earn precious standing points.

The MIXUP 2025 features an EWC 2025 qualifier and a TWT 2025 Master event. With wonderfully high stakes, we can witness spectacular matches by the best TEKKEN 8 players from all over the world.
