Libra of Soul
Libra Of Soul is the second story mode in Soulcalibur VI, joining the already-revealed Chronicle of Souls mode. In this game mode, players will be able to create their own custom fighter from scratch before roaming the world in a quest to stop a new evil mastermind at work to gather Soul Edge shards. Along the way, players will come up against both characters from across the main storyline, and warriors created by the community, fighting in a variety of rule-specific showdowns which shape their own path.
Players will be able to customize their unique characters through thousands of different combinations, choosing from 16 races, including human, lizard or even living skeleton, before customizing the size, facial features, hairstyle, clothes, armor and, of course. weapons and fighting style!
The second trailer showcases Tira, who is being offered as a bonus for all those who purchase the Season Pass before release. The character will also be sold as a stand-alone DLC.
Tira, an expert wielder of her Ring Blade named Eiserne Drossel, fights using her own Dance of Death style. Trained by the mysterious Birds of Passage group of assassins, Tira abandoned the group after its leader went mad. Alone and angry, Tira, travels across the world, slaughtering any that get in her way – taking great pleasure in the trail of blood in her wake.
Soulcalibur VI launches on PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on October 19th.
