Vader And Yoda In Soul Calibur IV
It’s true. NAMCO BANDAI Games has announced the appearance of Darth Vader and Yoda in Soul Calibur IV for the PlayStation3 and Xbox 360 console. Unfortunately both will not appear on the same systems. Vader will only be available on the PlayStation 3, while Yoda is stuck on the Xbox 360.
“It is quite rare that two publishers of this caliber are able to collaborate on this level to create a top notch entertainment experience for next-generation platforms.” said Makoto Iwai, executive vice president and COO at NAMCO BANDAI Games America Inc. “In the entertainment industry, LucasArts possesses some of the most recognizable characters and franchises in the world. We’re thrilled to integrate their historic characters into one of our most treasured brands”
“We’re very excited to work with NAMCO BANDAI and be a part of their efforts to take Soulcalibur to the next level,” said Kevin Kurtz, director of marketing at LucasArts. “Adding our iconic Star Wars characters to NAMCO BANDAI’s great game franchise is a match made in heaven, and we think Darth Vader and Yoda will be formidable opponents in the game.”
