SoulCalibur VI Gets Nightmare Back Into The Mix Again

SoulCalibur VI — Nightmare Showcase

Add another character to the SoulCalibur VI roster as Nightmare is back to add the fear and darkness to the SoulCalibur franchise yet again

Mark it down as not the biggest surprise for SoulCalibur VI, but it looks like Nightmare is on the way back into the fight and is now being shown off. It would have seemed odd if Bandai Namco did not include the character into the roster, but now we have a complete confirmation. I know fans of SoulCalibur in general will now be excited and ready to go whenever it hits the PS4, Xbox One, and PC in 2018. So many characters getting the announcement and no solid release date to look at just yet. The wait continues for now…

More or less, Nightmare looks and acts about the same in SoulCalibur VI based on the latest gameplay that we have had in the past. Obviously, the Soul Edge is the weapon of choice here and it looks to be used like it has in the past. Like I said, not the biggest of surprises as this is the one character that is almost always needed in the franchise and it would have been weird to not see Nightmare in the mix. Why break what works in SoulCalibur up to now? You do not and that is exactly what we have here now. Have a look at Nightmare in action just below.
