Button mashing combos in this Soulcalibur version doesn’t work as well since the combos have become more technical compared to previous Soulcalibur games. If not, there is no chance a non-Soulcalibur gamer will be able to win. The multiplayer offline mode is very fun if you have a buddy that is equally into Soulcalibur. When fighting these bosses on a difficult setting, it may take a few, if not many, tries to defeat them but that’s what difficulty settings are there for. The bosses generally have very powerful attacks and unique attributes such as not being able to get ringed-out, having two bars of health instead of one, or whatever it may be. The computer randomly uses different sets of moves or combos and speeds up or uses more complex combos depending on what difficulty you set them to play at. The AI in Soulcalibur IV is similar to past games. Therefore, if you get matched up with a character that has an advantage over your first character, then you can instantly switch to your second choice character which may not have that same weakness to your opponent. If you were given the chance to choose a reserve character before the battle, then you are able to switch, in battle, between characters. However, there’s an interesting new twist on the battle modes. The combat plays much like previous Soulcalibur games: a platformed fighting game where you use an assortment of combos and martial arts to take down the life total of the other player. You can change their facial features, gender, body size, what weapons they use, what armor or clothes they wear, and you can even change the tone of their voice. You aren’t just limited to stock characters either you can fully create your own character from scratch. Their stories aren’t that long though and you’ll play through a scenario within a matter of minutes this fact gives you further incentive to play through with other characters or choose a harder difficulty mode. There’s an arcade mode for multiplayer, a training mode that allows you to view a list of all the combos you can pull with characters to hone your skills, a character creation mode (where you can create a playable character from scratch) which is very in depth, an elimination mode called Tower of Lost Souls in which you play certain challenges until you are defeated and gain rewards according to how far you get, and there’s also a museum mode full of pictures and other multimedia to unlock.Īs mentioned, the storyline changes depending on which character you choose to play as. Each character has their own unique story mode to play through (and there are over 30 playable characters). This game has a lot to offer both to fans of the series and to newcomers.
