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.
On November 2, 2019, the HyperX Esports Arena at The Luxor Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada will become the epicenter of the SoulCalibur universe where seven of the best SoulCalibur VI players from around the globe are invited to gather for an action-packed tournament to crown the first ever SoulCalibur World Invitational Champion. Additionally, one SoulCalibur VI player may rise from a pool of 128 players to join the chosen seven by participating in the SoulCalibur World Invitational Last Chance Qualifier event which will also be held at the HyperX Esports Arena on November 2, 2019.
