GENTLE MONSTER Collaborates with TEKKEN 8
GENTLE MONSTER x TEKKEN 8 introduces a creative collaboration that merges reality with the TEKKEN 8 universe, reimagining the iconic antagonist Kazuya through a bold eyewear design. The "INFERNO" frame, inspired by Kazuya’s signature horns and infused with GENTLE MONSTER’s unique style, offers a fresh interpretation of the character’s menacing persona. The eyewear comes packaged in a custom box resembling Kazuya’s signature glove, further emphasizing the character's powerful presence.
Beginning September 28, pop-up spaces in Seoul, Tokyo, Shanghai, and Beijing will showcase the collaboration, featuring life-sized figures of Kazuya alongside replicas of other TEKKEN 8 characters. These spaces draw inspiration from elements of Kazuya’s world, such as his giant gloves, garden floor patterns, and traditional details like tatami and wooden frames, all reimagined through GENTLE MONSTER’s innovative aesthetic.
Visitors can also engage with the interactive gaming machine-shaped AR photo booth, where a special TEKKEN 8 CD pack featuring a personalized photo can be created. This collaboration extends into the game itself, with further details about the GENTLE MONSTER x TEKKEN 8 project available within TEKKEN 8.
