Bandai Namco has unveiled the first in-game look at upcoming guest fighter Yujiro Hanma from Baki the Grappler during Evo France 2026. The brief teaser showcased the antagonist's distinct facial expressions and physique, confirming that work on the crossover character remains underway. A dedicated full trailer for Yujiro is scheduled to premiere during the Tekken World Tour Finals on January 17, 2027.
Alongside the crossover teaser, the showcase placed heavy focus on returning combatant Roger Jr. with an extended gameplay demonstration. The marsupial fighter is scheduled to launch via early access on November 11, followed by a general release on November 16. Roger Jr. follows previous Season 3 additions Kunimitsu and Bob.
Roger Jr. and Yujiro will complete the four-character lineup planned for the Season 3 pass, which is priced at $34.99. While earlier seasons introduced characters such as Heihachi, Armor King, Anna, and Clive Rosfield, Bandai Namco has not yet confirmed an official release date for Yujiro.
