Earlier this month, Namco Bandai teased fans by showing them just the darkened silhouettes of the two new characters coming to Soul Calibur 5. All that we could see was that one would be a man and the other a lady, each featuring lavish clothing that was hard to decipher just by looking at a shadow.
In advance of his Comic-Con panel, producer Daishi Odashima decided to let one out of the proverbial bag by showing off the full colour design of the female character in mention. We still have to wait until their panel (presumably) before we know what her name is and the back story that has brought her into the digital fighting competition, but just seeing the look of one of the new combatants should make fans happy.
It’s been mentioned that she looks a bit like a blonde version of Momohime from Muramasa: The Demon’s Blade.
We’ll continue to do more sleuthing and aim to have more for you when it’s available. For now though, let us know what you think of the new characters.
