...Am I dreaming? 0_O Is this actually happening?!

"Welcome Back to the Stage of History."

There's already confirmation on the basics of this game's Story, too: blog.us.playstation.com/2017/12/08/soul-calibur-vi-arrives-on-ps4-in-2018/

Along with a new mechanic, "Reverse Edge": gematsu.com/2017/12/soulcalibur-vi-first-details-screenshots

Right at the end of the Announcement Trailer, it appears a new character is being teased, wielding a dual-blade sword.

"Set in the 16th Century, the latest chapter will revisit events from the original Soul Calibur to uncover hidden secrets. Each player will soon come to realize that, “History hides away more than one truth…”"
So, this is a prequel? That's why both characters look younger than in Soul Calibur V. I normally dislike prequels...The game looks promising and awesome, but if it is a prequel, it already makes me feel a bit "eh" at it.

I consider Igavania and Metroidvania the same genre, but i call" IGAVANIA" if the game was created, directed or with some involvement of Koji Igarashi OR the game closely follows his path on "Metroidvania Gothic game" style.

So it's an MK9-esque reboot from the look of things, we're going back to an older game but pursuing a new plot. And considering that shot in the trailer where Sophitia seems to have a flash... forward, to later games, I think my MK9 thoughts are probably right.

I think we can assume that everyone who was in SC1 is in this game, but hard to say about people who came later in the franchise. It's fine with me, as Nightmare is my main, and Xianghua and Sophitia are my off-mains. Though I do hope later characters like Talim or Zasalamel can still get in. (And considering Zasalamel's story, he could easily be retconned to be a character in pre-SCIII stories.)

Though I say that Nightmare is my main, he's only my main so long as we're talking about his SCIII-V moveset. In SCI-II he had basically the same moveset as Seigfried. If they end up going that route, I guess I'll put my energies into Xianghua, even if the 'Just kidding!' ebbs my tolerance from time to time.

You folks are confused. This is the post, and that stuff up there is the signature.

Scuttlest Pure Miriam If it is indeed a soft-reboot, I think we can expect at least some characters from II & III at least. Maybe Hilde from IV since it seems to be a concensus that II, III, & IV are all set in the same year (1591).

purifyweirdshard Personally, I'm most looking forward to Seong Mi-Na & Taki for now. If there's a chance that characters from later games make it in (considering this game's story), I'd love Hilde & Zasalamel as well.

Here's an extended gameplay preview:

"Critical Edges" return, and so does equipment-destruction. There seems to be new "Lethal Hit" attacks, and the "Reversal Edge" mechanic is explained.

It also seems that the producer is Motohiro Okubo this time around, rather than Harada.

I find it kind of funny that they announced guest characters this early, lol.

As for who it could be... well, to dream a little, I'd like to see Zhao Yun or Lu Bu from Dynasty Warriors.

See, some years back Soul Calibur's very own Sophitia appeared as a guest character in Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate. I think it'd be neat to see Koei Tecmo return the favor and let a DW character get into SCVI. Failing a DW character, maybe Ryu Hayabus from KT's Ninja Gaiden franchise?

I personally feel that Hayabusa is incredibly overrated, but him being in the game would definitely turn some more eyes toward the game.

She appears in Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate (and only the Ultimate version of the package).

The Warriors Orochi franchise is a crossover between Dynasty Warriors and Samurai Warriors. With some time travel and dimensional hopping to explain how 3rd century China and 15th century Japan are meeting.

Sophitia's first appearance cutscene in WO3U:

The problem with WO3U in terms of character representation, is that due to the sheer amount of characters (DW's huge cast and SW's slightly smaller but still big cast) combined with the new 'Mystic' officers as well as guest characters like Sophitia, a lot of characters are really only important for one battle or so in the game's plot, and Sophitia is one character who suffers this fate.

Altogether, only the (somewhat randomly selected) main protagonists, Sima Zhao, Ma Chao, and Hanbei, along with faction leaders like Cao Cao or Nobunaga, are consistently important from the time of their introduction.
