《铁拳8》发售之时凭借广泛的好评与强劲的销售势头获得了一个不错的开局，然而，Bandai Namco针对这款格斗游戏采取的后续盈利策略却引发了不少玩家的不满。公司决定在游戏上市数周后增设内置微交易商店的做法招致了强烈反弹，而最近引入的战斗通行证同样引发了类似的反感。
Steam平台上的用户评价直观反映了这一状况。《铁拳8》的近期评价显示为“褒贬不一”，过去30天内超过3100条评价中，约有40%给出了负面评价。不出所料，大部分负面评论矛头直指游戏内置的微交易商店和新引入的战斗通行证，还有评论指出，这款游戏的基础售价本身就高达70美元。
就在一个多月前，《铁拳8》宣布加入内置商店后不久，导演Katsuro Harada为Bandai Namco的这一决策辩解，他提到开发成本急剧攀升，据说新作的成本较前作几乎翻了三倍，并强调为了持续为游戏提供后期支持，还需投入更多资金。
目前，《铁拳8》已登陆PS5、Xbox Series X/S和PC平台。

Tekken 8 started off strong with widespread critical acclaim and impressive sales right out the gate, but Bandai Namco’s post-launch monetization approach for the fighter has irked a fair few in its player base. The company’s decision to add an in-game microtransactions store a few weeks after release was met with significant backlash, and the recent decision to introduce a battle pass has provoked a similar reaction. That’s reflected in the game’s Steam user reviews. On the platform, the game’s recent reviews show a Mixed rating, with 40 percent of over 3,100 reviews in the last 30 days being negative. Unsurprisingly, the majority of negative user reviews for the game call out its in-game microtransactions store and newly-introduced battle pass, with several also pointing out that the base game cost $70 to begin with. A little over a month ago, in the immediate aftermath of the announcement that Tekken 8 was adding an in-game store, director Katsuro Harada defended Bandai Namco’s decision to do so, citing rapidly increasing development costs, with Tekken 8 apparently having cost nearly thrice as much as its predecessor, and stating that consistent post-launch support for the game requires yet more investments. Tekken 8 is available on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
