What is Soul Singapore?

Soul Singapore (or Soul SG) is a group of gamers dedicated to the Soul Calibur series of fighting games, ranging all ages and walks of life. Some of us are newcomers to the fighting game scene, and some of us have been playing fighting games for ages. But for whatever reason, all of us are drawn to Soul Calibur. We’d like to think that besides the inherent strengths of Soul Calibur as a fighting game, it’s because Soul SG is one of the strongest and most closely-knitted gaming communities out there. Over the years, Soul SG has seen more than 50 people joining us to enjoy Soul Calibur in the company of friends. What binds Soul SG together is a passion for Soul Calibur, and a dream to see Singaporean Soul Calibur players on the world stage.

What is Soul Calibur?

The Soul Calibur series of fighting games was developed by Namco, beginning with the release of Soul Edge for the Playstation in 1996. Ironically, its sequel was titled Soul Calibur. A best-selling game for the Sega Dreamcast, Soul Calibur received rave reviews, with gaming reviewers citing it as one of the greatest games of all time, if not the greatest. Notably, it received perfect 10 review scores from IGN, Gamespot, and Famitsu (notorious for their stringent reviews). The success of Soul Calibur spawned multiple sequels: Soul Calibur II (2002), Soul Calibur III (2005), a spin-off adventure game Soul Calibur Legends (2007), and the latest iteration, Soul Calibur IV (2008).

Soul Calibur IV is the 5th and latest installment in Namco Bandai’s Soul Calibur series. Released on the PlayStation 3 and the Xbox 360 on 31 July 2008, this weapons-based fighter is one of the most popular 3D fighting games in the world today. With a new online play function, revamped combat system and customization features, as well as the entrance of guest characters from the Star Wars universe, Soul Calibur IV is set to be the best installment of the series yet.
