Soulcalibur IV Star Wars stage uncovered photo

The above poor quality screengrab comes from this video which reveals the Star Wars-themed Soulcalibur IV stage to the world. Called the "Star Destroyer Landing Bay," it appears to be based on a classic scene from Return of the Jedi, when The Emperor first made his grisly appearance. The Death Star in the background is pretty bloody awesome.

The video's origins aren't entirely known, but if the voices in it is anything to go by, we can ascertain that it came from people with very obnoxious and loud voices. Check out the video and let us know what you think.

Of the stage. Not the obnoxious people.

Pretty cool, hopefully there'll be some action in the background.

Crap completely missed the video, but from the video description this is Vader's stage and thus this begs the question, will Yoda and the Apprentice have their own stages?

Sure it's not "Star Destroyer Landing Bay"? Could be a botched translation.

I'm pretty sure it says "Star Destroyer Landing Bay" in the video.

Would be sweet if you could jump off the platform and take combat down in the actual bay area rather than just a raised platform above it.

If I wasn't so tired I wouldn't have thought that was an actual screen shot.

Not to be a wet blanket or anything but hasn't this stage been in almost every trailer for the game?
