Returning from my unannounced week-long hiatus, I bring you What’s New This Week?… with extra Soul Caliber-y goodness. Enjoy!

For Consoles

Soul Caliber IV | PS3 | 360 | PS3 Premium Edition | 360 Premium Edition
Warriors battle for control of the powerful spirit sword, Soul Caliber, and the cursed sword, Soul Edge. For some, there may be redemption, for others… damnation. Like earlier installments of the series, both versions of the game features a guest character. This time around, for PS3, it’s Darth Vader, and for 360, Yoda. For an extra $20, you can grab the premium edition and get yourself a metal game case, an art book, a tournament bracket card, and a Soul Caliber t-shirt.

The Overlord is dead, and the kingdoms are all vying for control of the entire continent, plunging them into a great war.
