SoulCalibur VI's roster is getting another series' veteran as Maxi, the Dandy of the Sea, joins the fight armed with his trusty nunchucks—the Fatibal.
After dealing with the shard of the cursed sword that was still loded in his body, Maxi learnt how to draw power from it without letting the darkness consume him. It was then that he was asked by the Edge Master to help him save Kilik's life that was being threaten. For that, Maxi took on Xiba as his disciple and set out to save his old friend's life.
Maxi is one of the characters that has been in every game since his first appearance in
SoulCalibur that was released in 1998. While
SoulCalibur is technically the second game in the series—it being a sequel to
Soul Edge—most people would still consider Maxi to be one of the original characters in the franchise and are likely thrilled to finally see him making a comeback in
SoulCalibur VI.
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.
