An odd exchange on X.com has led to speculation and hope that the director of Tekken 8, Katsuhiro Harada, will add the Waffle House chain of restaurants to Tekken 8 as a stage for combat. Waffle House is an American restaurant chain with a storied reputation for brawls, fistfights, and food laden pandemonium with flying blows.
The chain of events began with a reply to Harada on X:
To the surprise of many, not only did Harada reply to this comment, but he actually sought to understand the popular opinion that Waffle House should be added to the game:
Fans of Tekken and Waffle House brawls seized the opportunity to detail the folk history of the restaurant franchise:
After being inundated with explanations, Harada left the door open and placed the ball firmly in Waffle House’s court:
So now fans of both the famed fighting game franchise and the American eatery wait eagerly for a firm answer. Will we see a major championship won in a Tekken 8 Waffle House brawl in the future? Stranger things have happened…
