Soulcalibur VI Release Date Confirmed, Deluxe and Collector's Editions Detailed

@phreak - that I understand. Rabid defenders are rarely better than those that hate on a game. If you like a game or series, it makes sense you want to discuss what it could have done better or where it might go in the future.

Think people have become to comfortable with giving simplistic aggressive responses, attaching a strong emotion to it as justification, then calling it a day.

I will never deny that the FF7 remake games have good graphics, runs well and a great combat system.
Those parts are really well done. It's other things I don't like

As I said, I hope everyone excited for it enjoys it.
Won't deny you that ever. Hope you love it.
I'm just tired of being insulted for not liking changes I feel are disrespectful to the original. Changes I won't talk about here due to spoilers.

@phreak @IcariX - Everyone is entitled to their opinions but personally I am excited for Revelations. I never played the OG FFVII until 2006ish.

Loved it, but the remakes are even better. The combat, graphics and party interactions are great.

Played Remake and while it does have its slow parts i.e walking simulator. It's still a great game. Played Rebirth last month only and it was even better, much more exploration, and yes while there is a ton of side content - most of it is optional.

It was a joy to see Zack again and play as him. and I think in the remakes Aerith's characterisation is miles better than Tifa.

I am hyped for Revelations and cant wait for more.

I am not a purist so do not care much with the story changes, by the end of the trilogy I doubt there will be any crazy differences to the actual ending of FFVII.

Resonance will be my GOTY though, I can see it already.

Elitism is fine except when people lose sense of the context in which games (or any other media) are made.

We're shifting into a bipolar market - maybe exacerbated by social media - where things are near perfect and therefore worth money/time, or people fixate on flaws without considering things like the developers cultural setting, size, budget, development time, and publisher influence.

Increasingly problematic when a few flaws lead to small teams (and sometimes bigger ones) collectively trashed for one or two elements with no regard given for everything else the games/series/movie does well.

Does not bode well as that ultimately means more safe bets and more homogenisation (especially in the console market where creative indie titles don't sell nearly as many copies as on PC).

@Phreak

I can't wait for Resonance. But the more I hear Square Enix talk about Revelations, the less I'm interested in playing it.

I've been called an elitist as well. But the whole Remake trilogy so far feels like poorly written fanfiction. I hope Square Enix stays far far far away from Final Fantasy VIII

If you're excited for FF7 revalations. I hope you love it.
But currently I'm not interested...

Excited for FF Resonance!
And I HATE that I have zero excitement for FF7 Revalations

Being called an "elitist" because I don't like the changes from the original isn't fair. I LOVE FF, it's my fav game series, but am I not allowed to voice my displeasure things in about it I don't like?

by Sam Aberdeen on 14 June, 2018

Bandai Namco's upcoming weapon-based fighter, Soulcalibur VI, finally has a release date of October 19, 2018, announced via a new story trailer that also details the Collector's and Deluxe Editions.

The Deluxe Edition will come with the season pass, is a which includes five packs in the form of 3 playable characters and 2 armor packs, the game's soundtrack on disc, a pretty cool metal case with a built-in soundbox, and, of course, the full game - all for the price of $99.99.

The Collector's Edition features all of the aforementioned goodies along with a 120-page art book, a collector's edition box, and a reasonably sized collectable statue of the character, Sophita. This bundle is priced at $149.99.

If you thought September was a busy month, October seems to be the month that many wallets will empty out. Alongside Soulcalibur VI, which launches that month, Battlefield V, Call of Duty: Black Ops 4, Forza Horizon 4, Assassin's Creed Odyssey, Mega Man 11, Super Mario Party, and for those gamers who would like to think they have rhythm, Just Dance 2019. Oh yes, there's also some or other Western-themed game by Rockstar as well.

Soulcalibur VI arrives on October 19, 2018 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. Does your soul still burn?
