Soul Calibur V's English-Dubbed Story Trailer Posted

Namco Bandai Games began streaming a two-minute English-dubbed trailer on Wednesday for its upcoming release of the Soul Calibur V fighting game. The video gives viewers an in-depth look at the background story of the game.

The company previously streamed three other trailers for the game last week.

Soul Calibur V's story will be set 17 years after the previous games, and it will feature a new main character. The game will have an online mode called Player Match, in which up to six players can join customized battle rooms online. While some players are fighting each other, the others can watch the bout and chat with each other via text.

The game will also feature a Global Coliseum section with "lobby" areas for different regions in the world. There, players can interact and invite each other to fighting matches. Players can also create their own smaller "lobby" areas called "lounges" in the Global Coliseum. Twice a month, a "Ranking Battle" tournament will be organized in the Global Coliseum.

Soul Calibur V will ship for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 consoles on January 31 in North America, on February 2 in Japan, and on February 3 in Europe.
