As beat-em-ups go they don’t get much more celebrated than the Tekken series and Tekken 8 is due to hit our screens soon. This next iteration of the classic BANDAI NAMCO fighting game will be multi-platform and fans like me on both console and PC can’t wait to get our hands on it. The official beta test for the game has now begun, with several closed sessions planned for the coming weeks. So if you want to know more about getting into the closed network test (CNT) via beta codes, read on.

How to join the Tekken 8 closed network test (CNT) with beta codes 

The Tekken 8 closed network test (beta) started on July 21 on PlayStation 5. If you applied to take part on the PS5 and were successful you will have received a Beta Code via email. If you haven’t seen anything be sure to check your spam folder just in case. But if like me you didn’t receive anything, don’t give up hope.

There is a second closed network beta test for Tekken 8 starting on July 28. This one is again on the PlayStation 5 but will also include PC (via Steam) and Xbox Series X|S players. Unfortunately, beta applications have now closed but if you applied and didn’t get a beta code for the first one, hold on because the Beta Test Codes will go out on July 26 for the July 28 test. 

Even if don’t get into this one there may well be more tests before the game is released so keep an eye on the official Tekken 8 website for news of any further beta application windows.
