"Please look forward to collaborations with other works!" - Guest Character Speculation Thread

How about Akari Ichijou from The Last Blade? This 14 years old girl swings her heihaku (some kind of soul banner) and fights with summoned spirits and ghosts.

Dude. Play Last Blade. Seriously one of the greatest fighting games ever made. It also has a dedicated parry button, so SoulCalibur fans should feel right at home.

Ok but Kilik is superior, will you dare to disagree? Kappa (Never played this game but the characters looks interesting, don't take my comment too much seriously haha)

In another note, a bit OT but while we're at it, seems SFV will soon have a new character, her name is Falke and it seems she use a Stick.
 
So Markman in the leaks thread denied that the recent leaker (Verbergen’s disgruntled source) was speaking false truths.

I think this means Zoro is not on the docket. Thoughts?

I’m relieved as I think his design is not compatible with the rest of the SC crowd.
 
Definite relief.

And I'm still hoping for Aranea, personally, since she satisfies both the need for a pure spear style and female guest, two birds with one stone:

Edit: Typo fix.

Characters that actually fit the setting, have some kind of relevance, and might play cool:

Geralt from The Witcher

Default Dark Souls Protagonist (named lost soul or forsaken one). This could even be the copycat character.

Ryu Hayabusa from Ninja Gaiden & Dead or Alive

Sub-Zero with with his Ice sword.

Alucard from Castlevania with mist form as a dodge/parry, Hellfire Projectile, and Power of Wolf as a dash attack.

A Belmont from Castlevania with a whip, throwing knives, and holy water.

Kunimitsu with twin daggers.

Monster Hunter using the gunlance which would be an upgraded version of the lance style in SC3.

I'd also like to see Tekken cameos as secret enemy-only boss fights in single player mode: Kuma, An actual demon using Devil Jin's style, True Ogre, and Azazel (the last two are canonicaly slumbering during Soul Calibur).
 
Zoro does seem odd, but would be good marketing but super expensive.
Not necessarily. Bandai Namco already owns all the rights to using the One Piece IP for games. If anything, it's a way to use something already at their disposal.

Okubo's recent tweet with both SCVI and One Piece in the shot had me thinking of this guest in SCV...

Even if Gerald is the guest, I'm still expecting a Square Enix guest character. Likely Cloud or Sora, with both FF7 remake and KH3 on the horizon.

Though Zoro from One Piece would still be bada$$.

Or why not all of them? TEKKEN 7 has 3 guest characters. SC can have at least that as well!
