Japanese Sales Charts: SoulCalibur VI Struggles As Call of Duty Cleans Up

The soul still burns, but it does so from within a trashcan in Japan these days. SoulCalibur VI endured a disastrous opening in its native Japan, selling a feeble 24,049 copies on the PlayStation 4. That’s way down on previous entries, and with the sequel also struggling in Western territories like the UK, it’s not looking great for this epic series of swords and shields.

I hope these numbers change, it will be hard for the fans if this series is gone.
I'm such die hard fan, but it is what it is, nothing lasts.

Win the lottery and fund the next game.

MWH2027d ago (Edited 2027d ago )

I'd rather win your silence and it'll still worth nothing.

lucian2292027d ago

I'm hoping so too; these sales only show the physical copies, not the digital; so i'm hoping the digital make up for it. If it really does do badly, then we won't get a season 2 dlc pass sadly, nor another game. Meanwhile games like MK are fine =_= MK is so bad, I don't get it.

What Soul needs to do is what DOA did; allow the game to have a f2p version with paid unlockables; that exploded DOA's reach so much.

MWH2027d ago

What boggles me is a game that is heavily critisized for not having a campaign and being more or less of the same still makes it to the top time and time again.

Gamers are truly becoming the epitome of the term Consumer.

AK912027d ago

Oh wow that's disgusting in Japan? I know console gaming isn't big over there but still how can COD of all things be on top.

robtion2027d ago

It's a shame because it's a great series but they lost my money when they got greedy and locked content behind a paywall.

Injustice 2 was the last straw. I'm done with fighting games until they hit the bargain bin if this is how they are going to sell them.

Day 1 dlc character that has been part of the main roster for the last several games? Not okay.

MWH2027d ago

Unfortunately true but it's not the devs fault though, the publisher calls the shots. Idiots.

Baza2027d ago

Yup and this is why Dice is going to continue to suffer. All thanks to EA.

Review - Mullet MadJack (PC) | WayTooManyGames

WTMG's Leo Faria: "Awesome. This is Mullet MadJack in a nutshell. It could have easily been just another first-person shooter with a neat visual gimmick, but its developers went above and beyond with a lot of style and a fantastic gameplay loop, which is equally enjoyable in either Easy or Hard difficulties, for completely different reasons. It doesn’t matter if you just want to feel overpowered against an army of robots, or if you’re looking for a challenge: Mullet MadJack delivers in spades. This one is an absolute must-have, and one of the most delightful hidden gems of the year so far."

The samurai dude is black....because of course he is. Because that makes total f***ing sense. I honestly wouldn't expect anything less from Ubisoft.

RaidenBlack6h ago

Supposedly inspired by the real life black samurai, Yasuke.

NovusTerminus4h ago(Edited 4h ago)

Yasuke, he was a samurai who served under Nobunaga and was in fact black. However that is where his foot note in history begins and ends as he seemingly did nothing of note throughout his service.

There are far better general's they could have focused on who had major moments in history... But nope.

EDIT: I do want to add though, that since there is nothing of note from him in history, it does open up what you can do from a fictional writing stand point.

Stealth in that armour though....

LOGICWINS1h ago

@Hofstaderman Would be interesting if that armor actually slowed you down during stealth gameplay.

Hofstaderman12m ago

@Logic its a UbiSoft game so don't expect that level of detail. If and when I have time to try this game will likely play as the female shinobi. Perhaps that will offer a suite of stealthy options but I somehow doubt that....

SimpleSlave2h ago

You are such a dumb ass racist, I honestly wouldn't expect anything less from you either.
