2XKO’s footprint is already spilling into other games through community-made swaps and packs. The most active work right now lives in audio: stage and menu tracks ported into Tekken 8, plus at least one Helldivers 2 mod that swaps the drop-ship anthem for Braum’s theme. If you’re broadcasting, there’s also an official 2XKO Stream Kit with overlays and transitions you can plug straight into your production pipeline.

Examples of 2XKO-themed mods available now

These examples reflect where creators are focusing: audio replacement that brings Piltover’s energy and specific champion motifs into other games without touching gameplay systems.

Install 2XKO music swaps for Tekken 8

Tekken 8 mods listed above provide .pak files and use the game’s standard Paks directory. Place the files in one of the following locations inside your game folder:


TEKKEN 8\Polaris\Content\Paks\~mods

If your build doesn’t recognize the tilde folder, use this directory instead:


TEKKEN 8\Polaris\Content\Paks\Mods

Some multi-track packs arrive as a .zip. Extract first, then drop the included .pak files into the Mods directory above.

Tip: Keep a clean backup of any mod packs you install so you can revert quickly if you notice mismatched track lengths or looping issues after a game patch.

What these Tekken 8 packs actually replace

The larger “2XKO Alpha Lab Music Experience” covers menus, stages, and character comeback themes. Here are representative swaps from that pack:

  • Menus
    • Main Menu → replaces “Chopper” (Tekken Revolution)
    • Character Select → replaces “Empty Your Mind 1st” (Tekken 7)
    • Several Lobby tracks → replace legacy themes from Tekken 3, Tag 2, and Tekken 4
  • Stages
    • Bridge of Progress → replaces “Michelle Chang (4PS Re-arrange)” (Tekken 2)
    • Spirit Hills → replaces “Arisa” (Tekken 6)
    • The Brazen Hydra → replaces “Edge of Spring” (Tekken 6)
    • Scuttler’s Strand → replaces “Fight in the Netherlands” (Tekken Revolution)
  • Comeback themes
    • Braum → replaces “Glow” (Tekken 7)
    • Ahri → replaces “Plucking Tulips” (Tekken Tag 2)
    • Darius → replaces “Ruin 65 1st” (Tekken 7)
    • Ekko, Illaoi, and Yasuo → replace classic tracks tied to Tekken 3 and Tekken 2 content

The pack also includes hidden or alternate versions of certain tracks mapped to additional legacy music slots, so you may hear variations of Spirit Hills or Bridge of Progress in modes that surface those playlists.

Helldivers 2 audio swap: Braum on descent

For Helldivers 2, the current 2XKO crossover is a single-purpose audio mod: it replaces the descent sequence song with Braum’s theme. It’s a straightforward cosmetic change that pairs the pre-mission drop with a specific champion motif. Installation approaches can vary across Helldivers 2 audio mods, so follow the mod’s instructions closely in the download you use.

If you stream, there’s an official 2XKO Stream Kit

Riot released a free 2XKO Stream Kit timed with Closed Beta to make streams and community tournaments feel cohesive without extra design work. The bundle includes:

  • 4 backgrounds
  • 9 champion overlays
  • 6 stream overlays
  • 4 transitions
  • 8 stream alerts

A short tutorial is included, and the assets are built to be flexible so you can slot them into your existing OBS or production setup with minimal alignment work.

Permissions, reuse, and mod etiquette

Read each mod’s permissions before you share or remix. Some authors explicitly disallow reuploads, conversions to other games, or use in paid packs. Others require direct permission before modifying their files, while a few permit donation-point use if their assets are included. Respecting these terms keeps creators comfortable continuing their work.

What’s next for 2XKO mods

The appetite is there for deeper tweaks, including performance-oriented configurations. There’s already a community request for a lightweight “potato” mode that would prioritize frame rate. For now, most available projects are audio-focused, with occasional variants and hidden versions bundled in larger packs. Expect that to evolve as the game moves through its early access roadmap and more creators experiment.

If you want the quickest path today: drop a Tekken 8 music pack into the Paks folder and turn classic stages into Spirit Hills or Bridge of Progress, swap your Helldivers 2 descent song for Braum’s theme if you want a different pre-drop mood, and outfit your broadcast with the official overlays. It’s an easy way to bring Runeterra’s sound and style into the games you already play.
