  • (Updated with Info and Screenshots) SoulCalibur VI Welcomes Fighters Back to the Stage of History

    [ATTACH=CONFIG]21009[/ATTACH]
    Does your Soul still burn? It better, because SoulCalibur VI was announced tonight during The Game Awards 2017! SoulCalibur VI will be out on the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC via Steam in 2018.
    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 new attack, which seems to be triggered after entering a blocking stance which blocks all attacks including lows, is currently concerning people.
      Until we see more gameplay we won't know how it works, Soul Calibur has fairly simple mechanics, if they change anything to make it even more simplified i think that would be a mistake.

      Other than that, i'm excited, hope Z.W.E.I is in it and the character creator.

      This move?

      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.
      Sounds fine in theory. But yeah, seems early to say if it's broken or not.

      It might not be the "Reversal Edge", which is what i assume is happening when the characters clash in the trailer similar to clashing in Injustice, the move i'm talking about is like the new armoured attacks in Tekken 7, except instead of having armour properties the characters just block all incoming attacks before enacting a powered up attack.
      There is a part of the trailer which looks like this attack causes the clash, but it looks like trailer editing, i don't think they're connected.
