Few fighting games still have any relevancy in today’s competitive gaming market. One of those that do is Soul Calibur, long celebrated as the best and most accessible 3D fighter on the scene.

Soul Calibur IV is capitalizing on its reputation (and the hype that precedes it) by keeping a pretty tight lid on new or secret characters starring in the latest installment. We’ve gone to the trouble of investigating the rumors that surround SCIV in order to present you with a comprehensive list of confirmed and unconfirmed combatants that you can expect to play as when the game is released.


New Soul Calibur IV Characters:

Darth Vader


Not word yet on whether or not “midichlorians” work in alternate realities.

Only available on the PS3, Darth Vadar exists in Soul Calibur presumably as an apology to fans that are still pissed about “Masters of Teras Kasi” on the PS1.

Yoda


“Sense, my being in this game does not make!”

Only available on the Xbox360, presumably because its power light is also green (at least when it’s not experiencing the red ring of death), Yoda probably plays like that crappy little dinosaur fellow that was in Namco’s other fighter, Tekken. Yoda is sure to be an annoying character due to the fact that most of your attacks will sail right over his diminutive head.
