I guess this is probably going to be the new shitty norm with bait and switch for reviews then nickel and dime afterwards.

If they place something behind MTs, then I completely agree. But, if they want to add more cosmetics that don't exist yet, and they finance it MTs, and at a fair price, it's less unethical.

Announcing it after reviews... Hm. Sketchy at best.

If you tried the customisation, it feels extremely bare bones in comparison to Tekken 7. So I wouldn't be surprised if stuff was removed to add to the Store.
