SANTA CLARA, Calif.–BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment America Inc. returns to the stage of history with SOULCALIBUR™VI for the PlayStation®4 computer
entertainment system, Xbox One, and STEAM® for PC. Enter into a new
chapter of weapons-based 1 vs 1 fighting with returning fan-favorite
characters and all-new gameplay systems.
The SOULCALIBUR franchise has been the premier 3D weapon-based
fighting series since the original SOUL BLADE released in arcades
in 1995. SOULCALIBUR VI retains the series’ signature
8-Way Run movement system, providing super smooth 3D movement, while
integrating new gameplay systems such as the exciting Reversal Edge.
Reversal Edge enables characters to clash against each other and
follow-up with powerful counterattacks based on their opponent’s
actions. Challenge the computer AI, compete against friends, or
challenge fighters from around the world in high-speed dynamic battles
with jaw-dropping visual effects.
Taking place in the 16th century, revisit the events of the
original SOULCALIBUR to uncover hidden truths with a diverse lineup of
new and returning characters with their unique fighting styles including
series mainstays; Mitsurugi and Sophitia.
“The fast and kinetic gameplay of SOULCALIBUR is on full display
in SOULCALIBUR VI,” said Mark Religioso, Brand Manager for
BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment America Inc. “A stellar lineup of characters
and weapons, combined with a simple control layout means gamers of all
skill levels can jump into the action and decimate the competition.”
