Start your samurai training with this Mitsurugi Starter Guide for SoulCalibur VI

Get started in SoulCalibur VI with the iconic samurai.

New to SoulCalibur, or 3D games in general? On-The-Box protagonists are usually good places to start when learning a new engine, and SoulCalibur VI‘s Mitsurugi is no exception. Armed with a versatile toolkit that contains mid-range and applies hellish pressure up close, Mitsurugi is rarely without options of some kind on the battlefield.

Since learning Mitsurugi will inevitably help you learn Calibur as a whole, we thought it’d be best to make our first beginner’s guide centered around the series-original samurai. We’ll go through the whole cast in a similar manner, and build up basic knowledge of the whole cast’s primary goals from the ground up.

The next DLC character for SNK Heroines: Tag Team Frenzy will be unveiled at the London MCM Comic Con

NIS America has just announced when they will be revealing the next DLC character for SNK Heroines: Tag Team Frenzy. The new character is set to be revealed at the London MCM Comic Con on Thursday, October 25.

Of course, this wouldn’t be an SNK Heroines: Tag Team Frenzy announcement without them teasing the character. As such, NIS America has released the silhouette — that you can see above — of the upcoming character.

From the silhouette, we can see that the new character has some sharp nails as well as a distinct bob-style haircut. This does seem to narrow them down to certain specific characters from SNK’s various IPs.

Whoever this character is, we’ll find out their identity on October 25.
