Soul Calibur VI

The Soul series from Bandai Namco returns with a brand new installment after so many years of waiting as the stage of history is opened once again for new and returning players to experience the next chapter of this iconic sword-fighting game where every move is a clear difference between victory and defeat.

Soul Calibur VI (PS4)

Soul Calibur VI is the latest installment from Bandai Namco's Soul series and for the first time, it's arrived in the latest generation of gaming consoles, the PlayStation4 and the XBOX One. Armed with the Unreal Engine, every detail, every action, and every angle of the latest installment is very dynamic indeed and very eye-popping as players jump into the newest chapter of the Soul series by all means necessary.

Every character in Soul Calibur VI has a story to tell and in this game, you are greeted with returning characters from the franchise such as Mitsurugi, Sophitia, Zasalamel, Astaroth, Kilik, Talim, and others, including new additions such as mysterious Groh. Apart from them, Geralt of Rivia from The Witcher makes a special guest appearance, making this installment in sync with the tradition of past installments featuring special guest characters for dramatic reasons. Feel free to get to know the characters better in the Soul Chronicle mode, the main story mode of the game.

Like in past installments, you can immerse yourself to the stage of history by creating your own character and then give your creation a headstart in the Libra of Soul mode, a story mode where your character, created by you, will be the main character as you battle numerous foes to become the warrior that changes the fate of history. How your character battles is all up to you.

Playing Soul Calibur VI alone feels good but as one of the ideal party game to entertain your guests, a two-player versus mode adds more fun into this sword-fighting game, giving them plenty of reasons to talk about how cool or how intense this game is. If you are fully prepared, you can take on online battles, ranked or unranked, just to show the world that you are worthy of being the strongest warrior in history.

If you think you know Soul Calibur VI from the start to the finish, think again because there are more to come post-launch so be prepared with the season pass featuring four playable characters coming soon and two creation parts set if you are in a mood of creating your own heroes in the stage of history. The first DLC character is Tira and if you are in a mood to master her Ring Blade weapon and experience her story, be it.

It's a great honor the Soul series has returned and although late than never, Soul Calibur VI delivers a brand new, breathtaking, experience new and returning fans are looking forward to while crunching their fingers for some button-mashing action with their favorite characters or heroes they've created. If you are ready to step back to the stage of history, this is your fate.
