Thumbs up if Eddy is going to be a new main!

Guy went and summoned his ancestors to hype him up while he kicks your ass. That's so metal.

"Your opponent can't know what you're doing if you don't know what you're doing." - My Eddie strategy since Tekken 3

Brazilian here, love the trailer. His winning line at 2:06 "Ninguém me segura" doesn't quite mean "No one can lay a hand on me", but rather something more like "No one can restrain/tame me", which in my opinion sounds more badass.

[UgyBoogie]

"Hey man, let's play some Tekken."
"Alright, but no Eddy."
Every childhood ever.

Eddie repping Brazil in his particle effects that's such a nice touch

Summoning a bunch of ancestor spirits, not to help kick your ass but just to watch as he does it, is such a gangster move.

As a Brazillian...i love he is speaking in Brazillian portuguese, é isso aí 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷!!!

[ASentientToaster]

The fact they're using his Tekken Tag theme has me so hyped.

[jonatana.]

As an old capoeirista, I appreciate what they did here. So many great touches and little nods to the culture. The berimbau playing the São Bento Grande de Bimba, the bateria, the roda... Not to speak of all the ways they have tweaked the moves to be more authentic. Yeah he's of course doing some things over the top, but I have seen great mestres seemingly defy gravity itself right in front of my eyes. I think that this version of Eddy really catches this spirit.

[asterisqke]

His rage art looks like he summons a few of those background NPCs from his Tekken Tag 1 stage.

[alorenzo]

I like how they show the continuity from their past, how she once worked with Eddy in Tekken 6, so he probably knows she's a cold-blooded assassin at heart.

[SadikiStGeorgeangemon]

Am I wrong in saying that this is the most Brazilian Eddys been in a while, from the instruments to the circle in his rage art, it’s like there fully appreciating his heritage and that’s incredible to see

[m.g]

Even eddy fell victim to the killmonger hair

[LVXBackslashAirslash]

Hearing Eddy's theme from Tag Tournament 1 made me hyped. Despite other dramas that Bandai Namco is dealing, hearing his theme is refreshing. Bandai Namco really does care to old Tekken players.

[BlubberGod]

Walked into a gamestop in August 2000. TT was being demoed. Eddys stage was the first i got to play in. His tune along with Hworangs NEVER left me. So dope they used it here. Hype/nostalgia. A beautiful thing 🔥🔥❤.

[Waffles]

I hate dealing with Eddy as much as the next guy but man Tekken would not be Tekken without Eddy Gordo.

[insomiwoe]

The fact y'all used his TTT theme song for the trailer 😤 Y'all have *NO CLUE* how much this took me back! 😩💕

[Just_Some_Guy_with_a_Mustache]

Of course Eddy's first opponent is Azucena: "You're who they got to try and replace me in the vanilla, huh?"
