Ubisoft has told CVG that it will ship Soul Calibur IV simultaneously for PS3 and 360 on July 31 in all PAL regions. Now take a look at 58 awesome images.
Permission to drool all over the carpet, keyboard, or person next to you on the train if you're a flash git with an iPhone (although they're coming down in price soon - HA!).
In case you've forgot the game's got legendary Star Wars icons Darth Vader and Yoda in it, which already makes it a winner in our book. The full, official list from Ubisoft, reads as:
Ever Expanding Line-up:
Hilde - A striking armor-clad fighter who wields a short sword and spear making her adept at both long range strikes and short range combos
Scheherazade and Angol Fear - Two alluring bonus characters created specifically for the game by renowned manga artists and character designers
Take the Fight Online - For the first time ever, fight opponents around the world online in multiple versus modes
New Fighting System Elements:
Active Matching Battle: New to the Soulcalibur franchise, experience non-stop matches where opponents will try to defeat players one right after another. How enemies are strategically defeated is the key to longevity.
Critical Finish: Slowly fill the Soul gauge to unleash a devastating finishing move to defeat enemies once and for all with spectacular effects!
Equipment Destruction: Now the wages of battle are shown as protective armor can be broken off and visible lacerations of clothing can be seen.
Multiple Gameplay Modes - Experience Soulcalibur in Story, Arcade, Tower of Lost Souls, Training, Character Creation, and Museum modes.
Check back soon for exclusive footage of the game.
Wahoo! As a big fan of the Soul Calibur series, I'm looking forward to this game. Stages in the Soul Calibur universe have always look amazing, but those character models look nothing short of stunning.
what, no Talim? Yoshimitsu? Setsuka? just 2 new poxy looking manga characters... dunno about this one, soul calibur was always great, but the last one was lacking something, it got boring quickly
You know whats wrong about this whole thing? I see all the pretty CG ladies... yet it's the thought of yoda and darth thats getting me nursing a semi. *shudder*.
Any idea which "bonus" characters are on which console? Like xbox got spawn on the other one. Also, looking at the first few screens, how is Maxi BLOCKING A LIGHT-SABER with some poxy nunchucks??? strong with the force young maxi is
so PAL is getting it only two days after the US. not bad at all. i'm a US gamer, and even i cringe when developers delay games for PAL territories. good to see Namco taking strides to avoid that. now Namco needs to commence releasing Yoda as dlc for the PS3 version, because that'll be the version i get, for Vader and Dualshock 3.
and did they need to blow up the t**s on all the female characters?! its like a spotty pube-less nerds game now. pathetic. nowhere near the class of the dreamcast game.
This guy/girl is obviously on some sort of medication , cos i know i aint the only one who likes BIG breasts and STARWARS
