That’s right, the match that feels like it’s been millenia in the making will finally be upon us, and — oh, wait, it’s already out. Well, the other game that feels like it’s been in development for quite a while will also be on shelves soon, as Soul Calibur IV is slated to hit shelves across North America for both the Xbox 360 and PS3 on July 29th.
And as previously reported, there will be a difference between the two versions, with Jedi Master Yoda taking up residence on the box of X, while the big, black Dark Lord of the Sith Vader will preside over the equally big and black battle station console that is the third PlayStation. And of course, there’s the Sgt. Frog crossover of a sort shared between the two in Angol Fear.
In addition to that little bit of decision making/cursing console divisiveness (seriously, whose idea was it to include a Jedi and a Sith in a fighting game where they can’t fight each other? Something must be done), there will also be the matter of the announced Premium Edition, which will include extra customization content, an art/comic book prequel, and a tournament kit (said to “give fans the opportunity to document the battle amongst friends”), all in a metal case and to the tune of $79.99, $20 over the regular edition’s price.
