Tekken 8 Mod Download: Tropical Bikini Redux

Added 2024-09-08 18:31:56 +0000 UTC

Here's a treat for everyone- the return of Tekken 7's Tropical Bikini for Tekken 8! This has nostalgia and sentimental value for me despite not being overly skimpy or scandalously hot. It's a simple, somewhat basic but beautiful two-piece swimwear. However, I do remember that this is the one default outfit and bikini in Tekken 7 that came barefoot, and for that I will always treasure it. While other swimsuits- the Diva and Santa Bikinis- needed mods to remove the accompanying sandals, not so with the Tropical Bikini. With this, we had a common barefoot costume for all the girls, including holdout girls like Julia, Anna and Zafina (Lidia was another problem altogether though).

So when came an opportunity to have this outfit back in Tekken 8, I went for it. The bottom is adapted from the recently-released Hibiscus set. After you take off the grass skirt, the remaining bikini bottom is the same as the old Tropical Bikini (Tekken devs do love recycling). Adapting the top required porting over the model from Tekken 7 I believe, and it took work but fortunately our modder 9876789 was up to the task.

The Tropical Bikini is available for All Females, including Leo! Unlike the T7 version which was a fullbody outfit, the Redux has Upper and Lower pieces- using the Sleeveless Blouse and Jeans for most of the girls, but with the Ripped Jeans Shorts instead for Leo.

As mentioned, the mod was made and executed by modder 9876789 on my commission. Extract and place the files into your mod folder, equip and enjoy another swimsuit option for the prettiest Tekken.
