You can’t make a new videogame these days without some kind of silly unveiling. It’s usually a countdown timer or something, but Namco Bandai is at least making a game out of their Soulcalibur 5 character unveiling. Daishi Odashima has shown the silhouettes of two new characters for the game via Twitter. You can try to guess who they are.
The full unveiling of the two new characters will take place later this month at San Diego Comic-Con. Looking at them, I’ve got nothin’. Running J-Pop chick and Flamboyant Ryu? Your guess is as good as mine. I’ll report directly from Comic-Con later this month as they’re announced.
Get ready for more of this stuff, though. Half the cast is new, says Namco Bandai.
In related news, Daishi also posted this teaser screenshot and mentioned that they’re working on tweaking the balance of the game.
