Considering Negan, from Walking Dead, managed to make it into Tekken, even though he is not a fighter at all (lets be real, he is more of scrapper with a weapon and most of the fear from him comes from personality and the scenarios he is found at), then there is nothing anyone can say that denies a Game of Thrones character in Soul Calibur, it would definitely be a boost to the game's popularity. The thing is: ONLY ONE will make it, I doubt they'll add both Jon "Hotass" Snow and Daenerys, and since Negan is more of a scrapper, Daenerys being added as a sword user summoning dragons to attack is more than believable, even if she isn't too much of a fighter in the show.
Now, regarding the second guest, because if we're being honest, S2 will most likely feature more than one guest, could come from Capcom or SNK. Square Enix provided 2B (just as they provided Noctis for Tekken), which means that the companies that provided Akuma and Geese respectively can also provide characters for Soul Calibur. Here are my proposals, not saying that they'd be added together, more like one per company, maybe even one from either:

Here are my proposals, not saying that they'd be added together, more like one per company, maybe even one from either:
- Dante / Nero / V / Vergil (Devil May Cry) - Devil May Cry 5 was, undeniably, a success, it brought the series to its roots and is a great game appraised by most who play it. Its also a popular franchise, with very popular characters and a quite likable newcomer. While Dante obviously has more chance than the others, I wouldn't rule out the possibility of any of those guys to be guests in Soul Calibur 6.
- Necalli (Street Fighter) - Necalli is one of the newcomers from Street Fighter V, and one of the most popular among those newcomers. Being an ancient warrior, it would make sense, lorewise, to include him in the series, unless they pull any random time travel excuse to bring anyone else. Considering they care a lot about how lore connects even the guests to this game's lore, an ancient warrior seems like the best choice.
- Haohmaru / Nakoruru (Samurai Shodown) - SNK is about to release another SamSho game, and its raising quite a bit of hype with its return. Haohmaru and Nakoruru are probably the most iconic characters, with Haohmaru bringing his whirlwind attack and the possibility of cool interactions with Mitsurugi and Nakoruru bringing her pets, as well as the possibility of using Rera as a Soul Charge. Both would definitely be cool.
