 Over
the weekend at Bandai Namco's Level Up Winter press event, some lucky fans
got to try out an early playable demo of Soul Calibur 6. That said,
we've got some brand new gameplay footage to analyze, along with new
details and screenshots. In a recent interview with Gamereactor, producer
Okubo mentioned that the new Reversal Edge mechanic is "chargeable by
holding a button," and that the follow-up counter attack will initiate
once
the button is released. We'll be learning more about how Reversal Edge
functions soon.
In the second gameplay video (below), Mitsurugi performs a "While
Landing" attack (at 1:31). This confirms the return of these classic
mix-up based attacks from SC2 and SC3 (which were removed in
SC4 and SC5). While Landing attacks are executed by jumping first,
then attacking.
