Fu-ma's Shadow
We're almost at the end of current-gen, and Soulcalibur is just now making its debut in it. The PS5 and Xbox Scarlett are coming out in 2020, and like with any gen it'll leave the previous one in its wake. While many will inevitably point out "backwards compatibility!", which is good, but I was thinking what if they made an updated version of Soulcalibur VI for the next-gen consoles to keep the game alive and community active until Soulcalibur VII (which admittedly I don't think the wait will be as long unless something goes horribly wrong, but still). The idea uses Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition as an inspiration, as I think it handled the concept well.
Soulcalibur VI: Second Oath
- Platforms: PS5, Xbox Scarlett (physical/digital) would be the primary platforms. It'd also include PS4, Xbox One, PC as well either separate or as an update.
- Improved graphical and technical performances using the next-gen's power.
- All DLC characters. Which include the confirmed first season, as well as the second season and beyond, are available from the start.
- All CAS pieces, ranging from the default, to pre-order, to all DLC, are available from the start.
- All DLC features are added into the game as default.
- Quality of life changes, such as visual updates for the menus, a new character select that looks more like this to be less crowded due to all the DLC, and additional features.
- New features missing from the base game (not sure what they will be yet).
- Gameplay refinements/changes to improve the experience.
So what do you think? If the next-gen consoles had this as a launch title, would you buy?
