A (sometimes) vampiric villain in SoulCalibur lore, Raphael now embodies a noble warrior spirit.  Being a fencer, he boasts speed and agility that will allow him to land deadly blows on his opponents while avoiding theirs. Raphael made his very first franchise appearance in SoulCalibur 2.

SoulCalibur 6 continues Raphael’s story after the many turns it has taken so far. Luckily, we don’t have too much longer to wait to find out what happens next – as the game launches on consoles and PC on October 29.

Last week, series favorite Cervantes was unveiled by Bandai Namco, while others such as Astaroth and Seong Mi-na have been steadily announced since E3. The game’s roster currently sits at 20 fighters. 

Stay tuned to GameSkinny for more news and info on the upcoming fighting game as it develops.
