In an interview with Chief Producer at Bandai Namco Daisuke Uchiyama , about a forthcoming DragonBall Z game, he speaks of his wish to have had the Tekken of Soul Calibur teams work on the title before the merger.

However, it was not possible since Tekken 6 is already in production (as shown in PS3 “visual target” demos), and apparently Soul Calibur 4 is moving ahead as well.

No date, no system, no nothing announced.  But its likely this will be a big Next-Gen jump for what has historically been one of the best looking fighters on the market.

In Soul Calibur II, Cassandra had an unlockable third costume, remembered for its winged helmet. General opinon was that it looked goofy, though not unlikable. The outfit returned in Soul Calibur III as individually-purchased articles of clothing. In my browsing of tiny anime girl figurines, I’ve found multiple sculpts of this odd secret costume and wondered why. When I saw that it was back again in merchandise for Namco X Capcom, I got suspicious. After some research, I found Valkyrie. I love an obscure cameo, and this one ranks in with the Ice Climbers.
