The next issue of Electronic Gaming Monthly’s digital magazine, EGMi, will have a full-blown reveal on Namco Bandai’s upcoming fighter, Soulcalibur V. In the last pages of their current issue, they’ve shown a single screenshot teasing the reveal.
The images shows Pyrrha Alexander, the daughter of Sophitia and Rothion Alexandra, going up against another fighter. A quote from senior visual designer Hideo Yoshie is displayed on top of the screenshot: “Since it’s designed by a Japanese staff, we’re obviously influenced by anime and manga. With that as a base, we’ve focused more this time on the concept of light and shadows.”
A formal gameplay reveal for Soulcalibur V is planned for tomorrow’s pre-E3 GameTrailers TV special. Stay tuned.
