SoulCalibur VI is finally getting one of the most iconic characters in the series as Bandai Namco officially announced that Yoshimitsu, the honourable Samurai, is making a comeback.
While this Yoshimitsu is not really the same character from previous games, his moveset, and skills have not been touched at all. According to the character's story, Yoshimitsu is more of a title rather than a character per se. The mantle of Yoshimitsu is passed to the one who kills the original Yoshimitsu in combat.
Given the nature of the sword, Yoshimitsu's personality remained untouched, for the most part, as well as the fighting style. And now we see the original
Mechanical Yoshimitsu making a comeback in this new announcement trailer where he shows off some of the character's classic moves as "
the demon runs wild".
Check it out:
SOULCALIBUR VI represents the latest entry in the premier weapons-based, head-to-head fighting series and continues the epic struggle of warriors searching for the legendary Soul Swords. Taking place in the 16th century, revisit the events of the original SOULCALIBUR to uncover hidden truths.
SoulCalibur VI still hasn't been given an official date but is expected to be released on the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC this 2018.
