Who would win in a battle: Karlach or Kazuya? What about Gale vs. no matter Jack mannequin quantity they’re on now? Due to modder D0ct0rSauce on the Tekken 8 Nexus, we do not have to marvel anymore: They’ve finagled all six of Baldur’s Gate 3’s Origin characters into Tekken 8 to duke it out in a decidedly much less flip primarily based, gentlemanly vogue than we’re used to.
Fairly than the sizable activity of implementing them as all new characters, D0ct0rSauce swapped out a number of the alternate skins of Tekken 8’s pre-existing characters for fashions ripped straight out of Baldur’s Gate 3. Karlach is Azucena, Shadowheart is Jun, Astarion is Lee, Lae’zel is Reina, Gale is Claudio, and Wyll is Shaheen. In response to D0ct0rSauce’s descriptions for the mods, they solely substitute two presets per character, and will go away your customized costumes alone.

D0ct0rSauce shared a pleasant sizzle reel of the mod in motion to the Baldur’s Gate 3 subreddit. It is as slapstick as you may count on such a mashup to be: Highlights embrace Lae’zel squaring off with Kazuya, Astarion and Shadowheart air juggling poor Gale, and Lae’zel slamming Wyll via a number of plate glass home windows. RIP to the Blade of Frontiers.
All nice enjoyable, and surprisingly of a chunk with combating video games’ lengthy historical past of visitor spot crossover fighters. Geralt of Rivia’s stint in Soul Calibur strikes me as a very applicable comparability, however that sequence has additionally seen Yoda, Spawn, and Tekken’s personal Heihachi Mishima present up for a day within the solar. When you concentrate on it, these large Baldur’s bucks are simply there for the taking if somebody wished to do an official combating recreation cameo. Till that point, you’ll be able to try D0ct0rSauce’s mods over on the Tekken 8 Nexus—every character is à la carte, and so they’ve additionally dropped some Berserk mannequin swaps in there too.
