If seeing Darth Vader and Yoda in the latest screenshots of Soul Calibur IV didn't do the trick for you, then here's a trailer video for the video game showing the two in action.

Despite their exposure being short in the clip, the trailer was made in such a way that will make both fans of the Soul Calibur and Star Wars franchise ogle with amazement and disbelief.

But it's true, Namco Bandai decided to play with the Force in this particular title. At this point, we would also like to clarify that it was confirmed by Namco Bandai at CES 2008 that both characters from the Star Wars universe will not be able to go up against one another.

Darth Vader is going to be exclusive for the PlayStation 3 version while Yoda will only be present in the Xbox 360 build of the game. Despite that, we are pretty certain that the inclusion of these legendary characters to the equally legendary franchise just further heightened the anticipation for Soul Calibur IV.

» Namco Bandai, Thats Just Annoying!

Why not include them both on both versions? That would help you sale even more copies. Or they should make a new Star Wars fighting game with all Star Wars characters Soul Calibur style. A game like that might even outsell Soul Calibur 4.

» yeah

It is annoying. I'd love to pit them against eachother. But I guess thats how exclusive characters work eh? I had the PS2 ver of SC2 and would of loved to have Link to play with.



Either way, i think it's mega fn kewl and it might even bring in those not famiular with SC.

» This rox!!!

Wish everyone got both of em'... seems pretty tarded to me. Love Yoda though and I can live w/o Vader. One would hope we might see him as DLC later on... since these companies LOVE to nickel and dime us constantly.
