If the horny horrors rising from Soulcalibur VI‘s character creator hadn’t already satisfied you that it’s the horniest preventing game, the following DLC character may sway you: it’s 2B from Nier: Automata. Oh 2B, 2B, poor 2B, the robogoth cursed to struggle an infinite battle for the glory of mankind dressed as an attractive fightmaid. (Don’t decide: when you recognise the key purpose for her publicity, you’ll really feel ashamed of your phrases and deeds.) She’s “coming soon”, Bandai Namco announced over the weekend.
2B’s Soulcalibur incarnation shares quite a lot of strikes together with her Automata kind, swinging her swords, biffing together with her large fightfists, zapping particular assaults from her Pod pal, and dodging in her snazzy approach. She’s additionally bringing her personal stage background and music (ah, Automata’s music is so fantastic). For dressing-up, she additionally brings her Kainé outfit from the Automata DLC (itself borrowed from the primary Nier), further costume bits (together with Emil’s head and, additionally from the primary Nier, Grimoire Weiss), and a few of her zappy Type-40 swords.
Observe, fisticuffs:
2B is “coming soon” as DLC. The first DLC character, Tira, prices £4/€5/$6 on her personal so I’d anticipate 2B to value about that. Or all 4 deliberate DLC characters are thrown right into a £25 season go with some further bits. That’s getting fairly dear for a game which prices £50 within the first place, a bone of competition for Brendan in his Soulcalibur VI review final week:
“In all, I’m pleased by my scrappy fights, and my tutelage of Hooves the horse man continues. One sad thing to note is that £50 is a high price, a fandom price, and that’s a pity. Because the character creator, thorough tutorials and RPG-ish story modes are an open-armed invitation to folks who might normally run away from fighting games with their arms flailing. I imagine lapsed fans too, looking at these weird vampires and demons and nightmarish Sonics might think to themselves: ‘I used to love Soulcalibur. Maybe I could…’ But then they’ll see the price tag, and all that good will and Dreamcast nostalgia will vanish like a closed browser tab.”
Hooves is the bizarre character he’s made, in fact, after his experiments with horny lizard lads. Hey, no less than Brendan’s lizlads didn’t thrust their giant dicks in the air.
Soulcalibur does already include sufficient bits to make a passable 2B knock-off, thoughts. Or an inscrutable giant rainbow cube. Video games, what a factor.
