Namco To Release Soul Calibur To Xbox Live Arcade
This week Namco stated that they would be releasing Soul Calibur on the Xbox Live Arcade. It has been given new leaderboards as well as newer Arade, Training, and Survival modes.
Apparently, though, there’ll be no online multiplayer - unlike Capcom’s XBLA version of Super Street Fighter II Turbo. Some news sites have reported that the ‘original’ Soul Calibur is coming to Xbox - which, is technically incorrect - that was Soul Edge (or Soul Blade if you prefer), from 1996.
The publisher is also set to bring a new 2D space shooter to both XBLA and PlayStation Network. PowerUp Forever apparently features a spaceship that grows in size as it absorbs energy.
