Following the 20th anniversary of the SoulCalibur franchise, the weapon based fighting game returns to its roots whilst bringing brand new gameplay features.SoulCalibur VI has never looked more dynamic or intense with eye popping graphics powered by Unreal Engine 4. Travel through signature 16th century stages and experience the struggle for the two legendary swords using a roster of returning characters along with newcomers!
Gameplay has been revamped with the all new Reversal Edge feature allowing players to take balance between attack and defence. Once activated, players can defend against the opponents attack and directly counter with a powerful strike highlighted through a dynamic camera.
NieR: Automata’s 2B will be joining the battle of souls and swords in SoulCalibur VI
Sent on a confidential mission, 2B arrived in a location unlike any she had seen before. Scanning her language database for a description, the words “ancient castle” were returned. Her sensors detected no machine lifeforms. "Communication received from Bunker", spoke the robotic voice from 2B's tactical support pod. "Mission received. “Objective: Destroy the hostile entity, Soul Edge."
2B wields two swords, Virtuous Contract and Virtuous Treaty. Both have been carefully tuned for maximum efficiency in the hands of a YoRHa android. Her fighting technique is specially designed for combat against machine lifeforms, employing acrobatic leaps and midair slashes, lightning-fast evasions and perfectly coordinated strikes.
2B will be a playable fighter in Versus mode, Arcade mode and Online matches – and come with her own stage, background music and character customisation elements.
She’ll come as part of the SOULCALIBUR VI Season Pass or to download as a standalone character. More information on the release date to be revealed soon.
