During the recent Tekken 7 tournament, the Tekken World Tour 2023 Finals, the game's producer Katsuhiro Harada revealed plans to improve some Tekken 8 accessibility features to enhance user experience. This comes after the team received both applause and criticism for its extensive color blind filters, which in some instances, led to migraines and vertigo.

Addressing Accessibility Concerns

"Many people have been talking about the accessibility features in the demo for Tekken 8," said Harada through producer and translator Michael Murray. "We've made significant tweaks to address some of the issues and to ensure it works better for a wider variety of people. We're updating not just the retail game, but also the demo to reflect these changes."

The Tekken 8 Color Blind Controversy

In late December, a viral thread on Twitter showcased some of Tekken 8's many color blind filters. A video of Jin Kazama and Kazuya Mishima fighting with a black-and-white striped filter overlay against a mostly white background was particularly popular. Initially, the thread received a lot of love, but as it circulated, concerns were raised by accessibility advocates.
