Kazuya Gets Ready For The Next Battle
—Introduction tagline

Kazuya will be a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. He was officially announced at the E3 Nintendo Direct on June 15th, 2021 as the fifth downloadable character from Fighters Pass Vol. 2. He is the first playable fighter from the Tekken series, and the second character from Bandai Namco after Pac-Man. Kazuya is classified as Fighter #81.

Moveset

Kazuya's moveset is heavily derived from his home series. He also seems to have a transformation mechanic, similar to Sephiroth's Winged Form, where he becomes Devil Kazuya.

Trivia

  • Kazuya's repeated act of tossing other Fighters into a volcano during his reveal trailer is a reference to Heihachi Mishima doing the same thing throughout the Tekken franchise, as well as Kazuya tossing Heihachi off a cliff in his endings in Tekken 1 and Tekken 7.
  • Kazuya's fighter artwork is the only one that features a glimmer on any part of the character (in Kazuya's case, his left eye).
