Ahead of the release of Soul Calibur V tomorrow, Electronic Theatre decided this period of calm it would be a nice time to reflect. A chance to look back at just what it is that defines the franchise, what makes it so appealing and just how it’s managed to make it through five instalments in a genre so tightly packed with competitors and wannabes. However, instead of simply having the team address their favourites, Electronic Theatre decided to take this one to the people who matter most: the gamers.
Trevor Walker said: Fighting games have always been able to simultaneously experiment and innovate while staying true to their roots in the best of ways. Mechanics change, crossovers take place, and evolution occurs. One of the best examples of all three can be seen in the coveted guest character.
Taiwan has published ratings for the PSP versions of Tekken 6 and Soul Calibur, for release on the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5.
Soulcalibur official Twitter: "Valiant Warriors - Soul Calibur V is taking its final curtain call on the stage of history and will be sunset on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on June 19, 2023. The base game and all associated DLC will no longer be available for purchase. Thank you for your continued support."
This is why guest characters shouldn't be on the base roster. Im sure Ezio and the whole Assassin's Creed stuff license expired and that is why it is being removed. The same thing is probably going to happen to Soul Calibur 6 in 10 years.
