Soul Calibur V Trailer [Update]

"Don't you just love this pic?"

Another game announced in the Namco press con was Soul Calibur V. Something that was obviously expected. Nothing was really shown in the trailer aside from maybe a new character?

I wonder how big the breasts will be this time.

[Update]

Taking place 17 years after the events of Soulcalibur IV, the fighter focuses on the son of Sophitia Alexandra, Patroklos. In development by Project Soul for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, we're being promised new characters, an expanded online mode, and the return of character creation.

A new Soul Calibur?

According to Namco Bandai's Daishi Odashima -- part of the Soul Calibur-centric Project SOUL team -- we may hear some news in just a few weeks.

"Hopefully, I will be able to announce something mid-May," he says on his Twitter.

Since the popularity of fighting games is at an all time high, the possibility of a new Soul Calibur game being announced is up there too. Perhaps this is the reason for the mysterious countdown over at Namco-Bandai's site.
