Soul Calibur 5 Official Discussion

Daos seems like he’d be very Algol-like. Barbatos would be amazing. Soul Calibur definitely needs some Norio Wakamoto.

or a char voiced by George Nakata :smiley:

Already happened with Yoshimitsu in SC4. If Yoshimitsu’s back, then he’ll probably revoice him.

Algol was voiced by him too.

i need to pay more attention then

Guest character is going to be a Capcom character.

Also funny thing, comment in the screenshots asked why the game wasn’t in Sprites.

Lol. Emo Dante.

That said, in all seriousness though, if it’s gonna be a Capcom character, make it Sparda.

Don’t even joke about that shit :<

3rd strike influenced final fantasy characters soul calibur freedom? yes please

If it’s a tales character expect it to be from their new game Xillia.

remembering old martial arts films and their tendancy to upgrade their weapons/arts with special abilities makes me look forward to telling standard battle to go fuck itself from now on and join the world of Speacial Battle

I hope theyve improved the customizations and made it easier to configure. if they found a way to publicisize it then I see something special happening

I would like it if they can make the create a soul with the ability to have a nuetral stance that’s independent of the weapon chosen (maybe I want a bo fighter that does tkd foot bounces when they’re in a neutral pose, or a sword fighter that stands there just glaring at your ass with their drawn blade down by their side in Ivy’s stance, rather than Mitsurugi’s stance), and lots of outfit options (even modern stuff, but that’s reaching a bit too far), tekken-style costume item-exclusive attacks and throws (maybe change your unblockable/critical edge into a Soul Edge/Blade version critical edge autocombo for the same damage), etc.

Daishi said on twitter:

Probably 4characters are going to be presented at GamesCom. Cross your fingers for your favorite character!

Voldo, Tira, Hilde Maxi confirmed.

TIIIIIIIIIRRRRAAAA

Tira? Aww hell yeah!

And Hilde’s new armor looks boss.

>Maxi

Eew, everyone else is cool though.

Voldo gets back in because he’s so unique + age is irrelevant for a character that bizarre.
Tira gets back in because Soul Edge screws with her aging.
Hilde gets back in because she’d only be what, 36 I think?
Maxi gets back in because people love to press buttons.

It all makes sense!

Hoping a 3 section staff character is added to the roster or a new interesting/bizarre weapon/style

We didn’t get to see Xiangua’s daughter (forgot her name) in that trailer unless I missed her.

Daishi said we’d be getting 4 characters, so she probably isn’t there.

She’ll likely be in the next reveal though.
