Revealed: Darth Vader and Yoda in Soulcalibur IV

United States — 

Are you a fan of the Soulcalibur fighting games? What about Star Wars? At the Consumer Electronics Show, LucasArts and Namco Bandai Games confirmed that both Darth Vader and Yoda will appear in Soulcalibur IV, planned for release this summer.

Of course, while the game will be released for both the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, both characters won’t appear in both versions. Clearly, the two companies have identified Microsoft with “good,” as Yoda will appear in the Xbox 360 version. The PlayStation 3, however, is strong with the Dark Side of the Force, as it will feature Darth Vader as a combatant.

A 1:27 min. trailer is up on gametrailers.com, that shows both Yoda and Vader.

Just another reason for not buying a PS3. As we all know since the "new" Episode 2, the fighting style of Yoda is way cooler than Vader with all his dark force could ever be.

Anyway: This is definitely the most unexpected news I've heard this year so far. With these characters lined up, it's a win-win situation for SC IV.

Hmmm. I would rather fight Darth Vader than Yoda, so that points to the PS3 for me :-)

well, if it wouldn´t be darth vader but anakin skywalker, than it would be great. but i have never seen a great bit of fighting by the guy in the suit^^anyway, somehow those two characters fit in quite good in the soul calibur universe. congratulations to whoever thought of that

Adding these two promo chars won't make the game better though. I will better stick to Virtua Fighter 5.
