Soulcalibur 6 - 15 Things You Need To Know Before You Buy

It's been six years since the launch of Soulcalibur 5, but this legendary fighting franchise is finally returning. Launching on October 19, Soulcalibur 6 is looking to bring the franchise back to former glory by bringing together a mix of old and new things. As its imminent release draws closer, let's take a look at fifteen vital details about the game that you need to know of before you jump in.

[@Solgrave354]

@MultiTarded Might as well call it MugenCalibur if all it has is only guests! (And there's no need for more than 2 guests, heck Geralt for me is 2 guests together! That good!)

[@verdanthyborian2322]

I kind of hope it fails and it's the last game. The reason Soul Calibur 4 and 5 are so lack luster coming after such great games like 2 and 3 is because of crappy corporate meddling. 2 and 3 did so well so it caught the eye of "suits." They forced the devs to include their ideas resulting in a mediocre game. Because 5 did so badly, the "suits" abandoned the game and left the devs to make Soul Calibur 6 all on their own. 6 will be a game of their own making since 3. The game will be great. So do we leave off on a great game, or succeed and catch the eye of suits again and have Soul Calibur 7 be in the same vein as 5?

[@Hydrofobic2001]

On the bright side, there will be a beta next week which I heard will have 15 characters playable. Hopefully this gets the game put there.

[@spooky4223]

Yep it's fucking dumb. But......I'ma tell you a story about a anime fighting game series called Naruto ultimate ninja storm. In the games final release storm 4 I bought the season pass for 20 dollars. All season pass owners were given extra costumes for some characters and 3 shitty extra story campaigns which were the equivalent boring side quest with no special cutscenes or character dialogue. The kicker is bandai stated that they would only release three dlc. But Guess what💲💲💲💲💲💲they decided to release one last dlc after the fact.... And no it wasn't included in the season pass. Nope this DLC Expansion pile of shit cost 20 dollars included several new op versions of characters already in the game, which completely broke the game and it's mechanics that had been put in place and modified over the last 8 years. It also contained a new story mode with animated cutscenes and dialogue........All the shit we originally hoped for in the season pass. I played the Naruto Storm series for about 3-4 years from generations to Storm 4 and that terrible business decision by bandai not only made me quit there game but has made me hesitate with buying anything they put out and buying dlc...... If you got to the end of this thank you for reading I hope it wasn't to choppy.

[@paizubong477]

They showed the game off countless times with at least 22 character slots even after the game was completed and only announced 20, they have day one dlc, a $30 season pass with only 4 characters, the smallest roster since SC1. If Soul Calibur dies it's because they killed it. Sure there most likely are a few hidden characters but that doesn't help if they don't tell you, it's not like new fans or casual players are thinking about that and with game company's being so greedy lately even I'm starting to think Inferno is the only unlockable character

[@gardevoirtrainer4526]

@@paizubong477 Watch Dynasty's video on Inferno. He mentions that when someone unlocked Inferno, the message read: character unlocked Inferno. It didn't just say Inferno unlocked, but character.

Also wasted time on clones while saying Tira didn't have enough time to be made. There is so much wrong with what we know. It has good gameplay.

Tira only came back in due to popular demand. kind of wish she didn't cause this is just ridiculous people tend forget that if this was a during SC3 then I can understand getting mad that she's a dlc.

Yeah, it could be the last game in the franchise depending on how well it sells. *Let's release it immediately after Assassin's Creed and Call of Duty and a few days before Red Dead Redemption while also forcing the life-long fans into paying extra money to play as Tira.* It's as if Bandai-Namco was trying real hard to make it fail. Even freaking EA understood it was suicide to even try and chose to move up Battlefield V into the next month instead and Battlefield is a far more powerful IP than Soul Calibur. If the game falls short, Bandai-Namco should 100% take the blame. Not the fans.

[@elijahaitaok8624]

Bat V is going to be hot hammered shit though, given EA's Ad campaign on it going full SJW with it

[@TheTraveler980]

People really shouldn't buy this game out of pity, or to "keep it alive"... they should buy it if the game itself is actually good enough to be added in someone's library. If it is not, then it deserves to die; Project Soul did bring this upon themselves, if not the Publisher. If it fails in the end, then let it. We don't need entertainment to be a pity party or a nostalgia trip, especially not in the form of a Season Pass.

The game looks great, looking forward to it. Season passes are sadly a thing all fighting games have these days. I just hope the price will be reasonable. Since gear is also tossed in there and 100 pieces or such it does sound like we might get more for the money at least.

[@willemverheij3412]

I'm not sure how much that is in Euro's but it sounds like about the same price of usual season passes that offer 4 characters, which seems to be what they are going for. I guess if it's worth it would depend on the quality of those gear pieces. I'd assume that it is new stuff. But yeah, it would be a waste if it's all modern garbage like swimsuits or such. But if it's classic outfits of Soul Calibur 1 and 2 that haven't been added before, that would be great. Or maybe a Witcher themed gear package. Either way the price seems reasonable enough for the amount of content but we don't know yet about the quality of the content. For all we know the other three DLC characters outside Tira end up being Dampiere, Phyrra and Xiba. Or misplaced guests instead of fan favorites. So I do hope they will announce more about the content of the season pass soon.

[@shxne4697]

Tig Bitties the whole creation system is being brought over from SCV (including some DLC, the Valkyrie Armor set has been seen in some screenshots). So there’s a big chance that most, if not all, of those 100 pieces are gonna be original parts.

[@RaikenXion]

Im not interested in season passes, i never buy them. If i cant buy specific things separately, and bit-by-bit, then i'll just be happy to wait a while for the prices to eventually drop.

[@Cynicz13]

Just to put it in perspective without any of the dlc from SCV there were roughly 311 (give or take 5) pieces of customization parts not counting hair (47-ish pieces+3 DLC), and there was roughly 152 pieces of DLC. As it stands right now there was about 462 pieces of customization total in SCV and there are about 370 pieces in SCVI without the additional 100. That said some of those customization pieces are now race parts and a lot of them were equipment from characters no longer in the game or were things like pacman and tekken costumes which are very unlikely to make a return. Currently because of the races I imagine that there is a little bit more customization than in the last game if you add the DLC items and this is if the 370 pieces is counting unlockables. I imagine because of certain pieces being races (skeleton, animal ear characters (perhaps this beast characters will also be where we can find the various animal heads?), the elf ears, etc... It's hard to say how much new there might actually be and how much of the customization is now under race options which we know are not counted as customization pieces.. That said we've already seen new equipment based on what the characters are currently wearing. If anything the extra 100 will probably be customization options brought in from the DLC characters (and therefore unique) and a few extra pieces here and there of things people want and probably a few things from V that don't quite make it in the game.

[@Cynicz13]

Do note that Tira is confirmed to also be receiving a story mode and will likely come with customization pieces and weapons. There is a chance she'll come with her own soundtrack and possibly even her own stage. All we know for fact is that she's getting a story mode and this sets the standard for the rest of the DLC characters to receive the same.

I find it funny that people forget (or never knew) that Soulcalibur wasn't the first game in the series. Instead, the first game was either titled Soul Edge or Soul Blade, depending on platform. Soulcalibur was the sequel to that game. As such, the "very first Soulcalibur" was actually the "very second" game in the series.

[@LydonLewisDoUbLeZz]

Finally my favorite fighting game is comming and with new goodies a 2 stories!!! Hell yes!

[@Zazzalamel]

I thought this could be the best perfect soul calibur game, but they just always miss some marks to be perfect. Missing Hwang, Lizardman, Cassandra, Setsuka, Rock, Amy is a big letdown.

[@momop788]

Hwang was in the story mode, I think he's going to be playable..

[@tsuno5916]

There's gonna be DLC and microtransactions so it's not the perfect soul calibur game

[@ssjgotenks2009]

dude amy is s3 chara the the for s 1 2 but Namco ened patch this shti Cassandra is s2 charate shdu fuckig be in dam game

[@RubeusArchos]

Well if this game fails they will stop making them. it will not be cause the producer had no confidence in the game it will be do to other factors. I feel the business model videogames has been warped and needs to change. They need to stop nickel diming people out there money. Just give us a full game and stop playing game with us.

[@ssjgotenks2009]

this si full game wha tpar if rcoe ins s 1 2dont you get so hwo get s 3 4 5 charae rhuh o yeah dlc is only way

[@ariashaartiel-divine9280]

I bought SC6 already ! Send me a SC7 too I buys it ! Don’t let the beautiful game die ! Preeeeaaassseeee

[@adampayne2088]

I'm a big soul Calibur fan and player and I'm so thrilled to have watched this. I'm glad they're bring back the original characters like Maxi, seigfried, and kilik who are my top favorites. Can't wait.

[@CristianoAjinomoto]

Season pass is a quite a big no for me.

[@madestcap]

first time im gonna buy a season pass

[@RaikenXion]

Im hoping i can buy the 100+ character customization pieces separately, i hate season pass, ive never bought them. Im really looking forward to the character customization the most in this game, but if i have to wait for the extra customize items i will.

[@lizardbyheart2817]

We know barely anything about the season pass.

[@PlasmaWisp100]

Never played a Soul Calibur game and have been looking for something new. Good thing I watched this, now I’m kinds convinced to get it.

[@plasticsoldier234]

Would be so cool to see dantae in this game! Prob gonna get it once the complete character version comes out and goes on sale

[@TheBlacGhost2093]

I hope we have the option to turn off armor break. Its cool but i like to fight with the armor on.

[@Solgrave354]

Interesting ideas folks!

[@TheBlacGhost2093]

@@CheshireSnake 😂😂😂😂 u funny as hell.

[@TheTraveler980]

No. I like boobies, so I must break armor, or else I will go mad.

[@RaikenXion]

Same, thats a very good point. I wasnt too keen on the armor break, especially aftr you've worked hard creating such a cool looking character, only to loose most your armor after 4-5 powerful hits.

[@-8h-]

So many entitled people passing on a great game over $5. Ain't that a shame.

[@dydp1]

Marth X seriously, they already exceeded their budget before making tira.

[@-8h-]

jamming I dont think a lot of people understand the process, time, and cost of making video games. They need to recuperate the cost from developing the game (which is millions) and make enough to work on DLC or future games.

[@-8h-]

Weinstein Cosby who does? Surely you don't mean me, I don't fanboy anything. I like DLC, I get more stuff added to games I like and care about. And as long as DLC is being made, it means the developers haven't given up on a series and they give me the option to support it further.

[@tsuno5916]

I hate DLC with a passion

[@YoshiTheOreo]

Marth X Well KZbinr blahXXXToadscool told me in a well dressed video that it doesn't costs a lots. He doesn't work in the industry, but is good at connecting the dots.

[@tutunghawlhang15]

I don’t know much about soul caliber series but as for my experience all I wanted or loved was the 2 player mode where you get to vs your friends and family which was so much more fun than a multiplayer online mode. Will soul caliber 6 have this feature or not? As far as games nowadays it’s likely that it won’t have it but I just want to confirm, does anyone know?

[@MrPerson61]

This seems like the perfect time for a new player like me to jump in. Only time I had played the game was at friends' houses back in the PS2 days and I primarily play on PC, so with the story being retold, a cool looking character customization feature in which they have more use and it getting released on Steam I may finally end up buying one of these games.

[@weredevil616]

I think soul calibur fell off back when the 4th one can out. The 5th was probably the worse. Fighting games need to take lessons from the old games. I don’t see what’s wrong with having an arcade mode with endings for each character and a story mode. Plus all the other modes from back in the day. I think I’ll wait till the full game comes out. As why pay £50 pounds when it’s first out. When you could pay £50 when all of the characters are out.

[@Josh-mk7ok]

weredevil o'mahony sc6 has plenty of content

[@AriesWarlock]

" I don’t see what’s wrong with having an arcade mode with endings for each character and a story mode." Well, there's the fact that video games costs many millions to make. Add to that than Namco prefers Tekken over SC and give it a larger budget.

[@TheTraveler980]

@Josh Smith You don't know that beyond what they described. Quantity does not equal quality, nor vice-versa.

[@Josh-mk7ok]

The Traveler they have 3 story modes, arcade mode, training, museum, versus, and online modes. I know that’s plenty of content

[@TheTraveler980]

We will see.

[@whiterunguard4717]

Cervantes looks so badass

[@JLConawayII]

Something tells me this game is going to do better than the last couple entries in the series. It looks like they took all the best elements of everything and put them into this game.

[@emapple8298]

I just think the way they've gone about Tira's whole deal for this game is a slap in the face. You don't take a character who's been there from day 1 and scrap her, bring her back by fan request only, and then charge for her.

[@badbroodx13xxx91]

Final game my a$$.😐😧😒

[@_noahrh]

Suuuuch a great fighting game. Hope this does well.

[@joeywheeler8681]

Noah Hughes it won’t

[@joeywheeler8681]

Noah Hughes new players are worry for the pro or trolling players who just play fighting games to troll.

[@joeywheeler8681]

Noah Hughes plus I don’t think anyone wants to be on a video losing to an asshole

[@airworthyimpact]

@@joeywheeler8681 this happens on any and every fighting game lol. The game has been getting pretty good feedback from just the Demo versions that have been set up at tournaments.

[@thecamelchannel1467]

I'm worry for your grammar lmao There's a lot of new players this time, and SC6 has been getting a lot more hype than other games in the franchise, I think it'll do well

[@ilcapitano648]

If all the extra DLC is what it takes to keep Soul Calibur alive then I’ll happily drop an extra £20 for the season pass. As long as the microtransactions aren’t as obnoxious as MKX, which didn’t even need the extra support money-wise.

[@warblackjack5565]

Best fighting games series! Definitely has the most replay value. Been playing it since Soul Calibur 2. This looks like it takes the best parts of Soul Calibur 3 and Soul Calibur 5 and combines them. I am looking forward to it. Hopefully it does great! Also, correct me if I am wrong, but isn’t Tira a pre-order bonus, not a season pass character. I thought I read somewhere that she would be a day 1 dlc character for those who preordered the game.

[@partydean17]

Now that Raphael has been confirmed I'll be ok if this is the last soul series game. I'll be playing it for decades just like I've done all the others. Plus they may need another franchise to move away from the oversexualization and extra weak story.

[@lezardex6335]

I considered buying it day one but after the Tira DLC stuff i won't. I know the battle is already lost there is no fighting game without DLC characters paywall those past years. and as expected Soulcalibur did follow the trend. hype is killed. i'll buy the full and complete edition if they make one. It's their own damn fault if the game don't sell well. make her free and i'll change my mind.

[@ReaveIdono]

Way to make your own demands chump lol.

[@Cynicz13]

That is completely false (I'm a huge fan but I had plenty of questions about both those issues and my posts are still there and replied to) don't try and spread fake news.

[@ssjgotenks2009]

Cassandra should ben in dam base roster this be for cons 1 2 the Namco guys aid so so whr fuck si she

[@Yic17Studio]

Learned a lot of info in this vid. Liked.

[@LordVulcan93]

The First 'Caliber' on Dreamcast is still the best one, and still play it to this day.

[@pandasbass7267]

Kinda feel like SC6 is going to fail and it’ll be the death of the franchise

[@trcsonic]

Too much Dlcs

[@vilvethope]

Panda'sBass shitty ppl like you are the reason why we lost a lot of good gems so shut up and close the door while you’re leaving

[@slicer1419]

L

[@pandasbass7267]

vilvet hope how am I shitty? I love this franchise but imo I feel like this is the end. Day one Season pass characters, and I also see no hype behind the game. Again it’s my opinion so you can go take your salty ass back to your momma.

[@mintwax9002]

Does anyone know if young soue(probably spelled his name wrong) is in this game?

[@mintwax9002]

@Remy Plancot thanks

[@godspeed7423]

It's so obvious that so many people including gamingbolt have not played the beta

[@spooky4223]

I loved everything you said except for the season pass, they crazy putting +100 customizable thing behind a pay wall

[@kazuhiramiller7467]

Never played soul caliber, but now i wanna check it out.

[@Avarice01]

Parry and counters? Are they coming back?

[@francescofavro8890]

after the last week online demo i'm definetly hooked! i'm super thrilled to be able to play once again as kilik! (let's hope hilde isn't in the season pass, though)

[@maCAWfactory]

was by far my fav fighting game of all time, pre ordered deluxe edition

[@AJOongoo]

Tira & Seung Mi Na will be for sure characters! Wondering who’s next. Hoping there’s Viola or Amy 😭

[@tjmmatthews2930]

yes we all should check the new game out after its release with or without the season pass, which should be included in all the different versions if the game, we got to to sell as many copies of the game so they can will continue to make them Soul Calibur 7 etc next time , love this franchise

[@kollinseaton1684]

Making us pay extra for a character that has been a part of every game since 3... AMAZING.

[@carlosnunez9062]

God I feel like like buying one thousand copies myself just so this series doesn't die. And so that I can get a copy on my switch too

[@zukoulou7464]

"Trancending history and the world a tale of souls and swords eternally retold..."

[@Cryptiiix]

How do you make this video if the game isnt out yet?

[@OfSunFlowers]

Why does the background seem so flushed out? What's with the motion blur? I just feel like it should look better.

[@JBhater560]

I think i should add a guest fighter style in character creation has already been in which was devil jin moveset in Soul Calibur 5

[@marcosfernandesdesousajuni9576]

just to add some info, Guard Impact does not cost Soul Gage anymore but it does cost Guard Gage, if your Guard Gage gets too low and you try to block an attack you might suffer a guard break which leaves you quite vulnerable for that instant..

[@greenpowertemple]

Looks good so far! Can’t wait !

[@PulpChristian]

I don't normally ever pre order games but I made sure I pre ordered the latest Soulcalibur just to show Bandai-Namco that us fans still care about this franchise.... Save Soulcalibur!!!!!

[@jaggedsigns3O11]

I've bought the deluxe version on PS4 and Pc with season pass, damn it if it comes out on the switch I'll buy that shit too! this series cant die its good as fuck.

[@oneandonlyjark]

This sort-of reboot reminds me of the phenomenal Mortal Kombat (2011). I'm not one to tout story over gameplay (one is not supposed to), but that game did something very clever by having Raiden send a message through time to his slightly-younger self about the Armageddon future. The story rebooted itself in-universe. I don't think SC6 will do something like that but it would be pretty slick if it did!

[@rodneyharris9439]

Great information !!

[@ghosttronde9239]

Are these season pass items pre order exclusive ?

[@aeoncalcos7605]

No, they´re in the season pass no matter when you´ll buy it

[@HaipaSonikku]

There's another mechanic in as well but Namco doesn't advertise it out of fear that it will deter casuals and many core gamers from playing.
