Ubisoft announces the European release date for Soul Calibur IV, which is headed for the Xbox 360 and PS3 on July 31st...
Ubisoft has announced that Soul Calibur IV is set for release in Europe on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 this July 31st. The French publisher has taken on the distribution responsibilities in the region for the game's developer/publisher Namco Bandai.
"We are thrilled to be bringing Soul Calibur's successful heritage to PAL territories as it sets into motion a new echelon of dynamic gameplay and exceptional game graphics on next generation platforms," said John Parkes, EMEA Marketing Director at Ubisoft. "Offering players an ultimate fighting game experience, Soul Calibur IV will definitely be an owners 'must have' in building their game collection library."
Soul Calibur IV will bring new characters to the saga, such as Hilde (who looks kind of like a Greek Warrior woman with a shield and short sword), as well as Scheherazade and Angol Fear, who have been designed by renowned manga and character artists. There are also some interesting bonus sabre wielders in the form of Darth Vader and Yoda.
Additionally, competitive online modes will be featured for the first time ever in the Soul Calibur series, while equipment damage and the option of 'Critical Finish' ending moves by filling up the Soul Gauge are set to offer a few tasty extra features as well.

sugar ACE. Absolutely love the game, and I'm a non-gamer. Only bought a PS3 because I was bored.

I have always enjoyed playing soulcal, and am sure this game will be fun to play as well. The story doesn't really matter in a game like this. Also, what exactlly can make someone a "good gamer" vs being a "bad gamer" I mean, what can make you think someone you don't know is a bad gamer or gives gamers a bad name?

If you think Dead or Alive was dull you are RIGHT. The whole series is DULL. Mortal Kombat has more moves in it's moves list. As a matter of fact. That series is for non-gamers who play games to see the graphics. Soulcalibur, on the other hand, is for REAL GAMERS who hate people that BUTTON MASH instead of tryin to LEARN the moves.

Man. You guys. Are you guys really gamers. Are you even Soulcalibur fans. This is the exact reason why there are no good games. The people making the games are getting the wrong input from true non-gamers. Soulcalibur 4 will be the best fighting game made to date. Adding the Star Wars characters was a good move. King Arthur and excalibur would also tie in great with this game. Hmm. Since he is a LEGEND/Folk story/myth/etc......."Transending HISTORY;a LEGEND of SOULS and SWORDS eternaly retold....

Yes we've played with them; no they don't work - and I'll be interested to see what you think come September when the force will well and truly be unleashed...

I'm not bored enough to crawl through this site's archives to see what their position was last batch of tie-ins this franchise produced. I agree with the previous sentiments of these guys making a story out of nothing. The Jar-Jar and Ewok references are poor journalism in my eyes. To each his own. Have they played as the character? It might be fun character to fight with. Even if we never heard of Star Wars, each of these characters would be exciting to play with in their own right. I personally am excited for the Star Wars game in Sept. I've read alot about the three engines they are using in that game, and how they got them to work together for what appears to be a nearly unique game with each playthrough. I'm curious as to how many games these so called "journalists" have designed and can they do much better? There are reasons why I don't rely on this sight for the bulk of my gaming knowledge. Mahalo.

Oh brother that's ridiculous. If you don't like those characters don't play them and stop trying to come up with a story out of nothing. Lame.
