[Update: Two more characters have been confirmed for Soul Calibur 6: Zasalamel and Ivy. Both characters were revealed to be carrying their signature weapons and they bring the total number of confirmed characters up to eight alongside Mitsurugi, Sophitia, Kilik, Nightmare, Xianghua, and Grøh.]

The imminent arrival of Soul Calibur VI feels a bit like the return of a long-lost old friend. By the time it comes out, it will have been six years since Soul Calibur V was released, and nearly 20 years since the original Soul Calibur first made the leap from the arcades to Sega’s Dreamcast. Or more than 20 years if you trace the series back to 1996’s Soul Edge for the original PlayStation (known as Soul Blade outside of Japan).
