Electronic Gaming Monthly to Reveal Soul Caliber 4

The newest issue of Electronic Gaming Monthly has just been sent out with it’s hands-on preview of Bioshock. But what’s slightly more interesting is the little teaser given at the end of the issue:

“If you’re hankering for a virtual fistfight, top-quality options about — the Virtua Fighter, Tekken, and Dead or Alive franchises all offer satisfying punch-up action. But if you’re truly looking to give your opponent something to cry about, it’s all about wielding sharpened steel, and nothing beats Namco Bandai’s Soul Calibur series for weapon-based fighting thrills. In our world-exclusive preview, we’ll reveal the future direction of this beloved series.”

Yes, it looks like the magazine is going to be the first to get the scoop on the next Soul Calibur. Personally, I’m hoping to see some interesting new characters; ones that hopefully aren’t created by Todd McFarlane.
