As revealed in a new trailer that Bandai Namco posted today, the blue-eyed, blonde-haired, and short-tempered American is entering the latest competition with a surprising hairdo, one that appears to a far thing from the flattop hairstyle that he has rocked since the original Tekken game, which launched for arcades way back in 1994. It's been quite a long time coming, with Tekken 7 first coming to arcades in 2015, and seeing a console release in 2017.Paul Phoenix will be back in Tekken 8, but he’ll look a bit different than what fans might be accustomed to. Tekken 8 was first formally revealed last September (series producer Katsuhiro Harada teased it shortly before) during a Sony State of Play presentation, with Bandai Namco regularly rolling out information for the title leading up to its release. Other returning characters so far include the likes of Jin, Kazuya, Jack-8, and King. Paul is currently the 11th confirmed character for the roster, with other returning fighter, Nina Williams, being confirmed just prior with a similar style of trailer showcasing some of her moves.

Despite that, he still exudes youthfulness, pulling a wheelie on a motorcycle near the start of the trailer to enter a battle. Granted, finally showing some age and having a larger makeover is understandable given his appearance in every single Tekken game since the first, all the way back in 1994 in the arcades, before coming to PlayStation in 1995.
