Weekly Famitsu Reveals Soulcalibur: Lost Swords

[Jaxel]

So if you guys remember, back in July, Namco-Bandai registered a trademark for "Soulcalibur: Lost Swords". A week later, they wrapped up their Comic-con panel, and revealed absolutely nothing about the upcoming title. Well as of this week, the title has been officially revealed in Weekly Famitsu.

According to Gematsu, Soulcalibur: Lost Swords will be a Playstation 3 exclusive free-to-play game in the vein of Tekken Revolution. If its similar to their other F2P titles, the game will be "time-limited" where players must purchase tokens in order to continue playing the game beyond its initial demo hours. Not much more is known about the title, but it will most likely be a slightly modified version of Soulcalibur V.

I'm glad to see this game made. I have long thought that Soul Calibur needed a game that would give it a constant inflow of cash even if it was a little bit. Hoping this will be successful.

Hopefully it turns out differently from Tekken Revolution. Bamco has had some time since that game's release after all. Maybe they'll go with a better format.

If it winds up being just a re-release that will at least give them the ability to patch the game and fix some primary issues like hit box inconsistencies and Viola's infinite and ToD combos.
