Tekken 8 is holding a 'closed network test' in July, and you can sign up to get in right now

The upcoming fighting game Tekken 8 will hold a "closed network test" in July, and if you'd like to take part, you can sign up now.

Tekken 8 will be the first game in the series to enable crossplay, meaning that players will be able to throw down with anyone online, regardless of what platform they own. That's what the CNT, as developer Bandai Namco calls it (probably unwisely, but we'll leave that alone for now), will be focused on: Head-to-head online play with cross-platform matching. Players will have access to 16 playable characters—Jin, Kazuya, Jun, Paul, Law, King, Lars, Jack 8, Xiaoyu, Nina, Leroy, Lili, Asuka, Hwoarang, and Bryan, plus a new fighter, Claudio—and five stages: Urban Square (evening), Yakushima, Rebel Hangar, Sanctum, and Arena.
