The last year has been a brilliant one for fans of fighting games, with Street Fighter 6, Mortal Kombat 1 and Tekken 8 releasing within seven months of each other. All of them were great games with positive reviews and have also sold well, but it seems like Tekken 8 might be the biggest success of the bunch.

While Street Fighter 6 has already reached three million sold copies in six months time, Tekken 8 reached over two million sold copies in just three weeks. According to Bloomberg's tech reporter Takashi Mochizuki, this rate has even surprised Bandai Namco themselves and surpassed their expectations.
