This game just moved up a few notches on my anticipated games for this year. It’s now confirmed that Bandai Namco Games are adding Lord of the Sith himself, Darth Vader, and mean green force machine, Master Yoda, to the line-up of playable characters in the upcoming Soul Calibur IV. Watch the video and be amazed. Thanks to Gaming Today for the original article.
With this move they may have single handedly expanded the franchise beyond the current fan-base. Just think about it. Star Wars games sell no matter what. The fans are rabid. Fanatical even. People will now buy this game without ever playing a Soul Calibur game. This has got to be the best “secret” character since they had Link in the Gamecube’s Soul Calibur.
Boom!
