Curious about how many chapters there are in Tekken 8's story mode, The Dark Awakens? Tekken 8 greatly expands the single-player content available in previous games, led by the new story mode that tells the tale of Jin and Kazuya's final battle.

Tekken 8's story is made up of different chapters, and the game doesn't actually tell you how many there are until you get to the end - so here's a rundown of all the ones you'll play through.

How many chapters are in Tekken 8?

There are 15 chapters in Tekken 8's story mode. Most of them are quite short, and tend to consist of no more than one or two fights alongside some cutscenes.

Some of the more important chapters go on for longer, so you shouldn't judge how long it will take to beat the game from the first few alone.
