Following the reveal made at EVO Japan, Bandai Namco Entertainment released the new trailer of SoulCalibur VI for the western market.
Interestingly, in this trailer upcoming crossover character Haohmaru from Samurai Shodown is actually voiced in English, which is rather peculiar since SNK’s game doesn’t have English voice-overs.
Of course, this isn’t surprising considering that SoulCalibur VI does.
On the other hand, his special moves have been left in Japanese, which is rather appropriate.
Incidentally, we also learn that he will come with a dedicated stage, even if he won’t appear in the story mode.
Haohmaru will be the second character of the game’s Season 2, and he will be released in spring 2020.
You can check him out below.
We semi-recently learned that Bandai Namco considers the game’s launch a successful one, which is not too surprising since it’s getting a season 2.
The second season was announced back at EVO 2019, with the reval that it’ll include four characters including Hilde and Haohmaru himself.
If you want to learn more about the game, you can read our own enthusiastic review.
