Bandai Namco has announced that Soulcalibur VI will be released for PS4, Xbox One and PC in 2018.

Debuting at last night’s Game Awards, Soulcalibur VI will be developed using Unreal Engine 4, and feature characters both new and old. Mitsurugi Heishiro and Sophitia Alexandra are already confirmed.

It’ll mostly be sticking to its roots, however, new gameplay mechanics include the ‘Reversal Edge’ feature, which allows you to quickly switch between defence and offence by countering an opponent’s attack with a flashy special move.

Definitely one for fighting fans to keep an eye on in the new year!
