And there it is folks, Geralt of Rivia joins the playable cast of SoulCalibur VI. We couldn't possibly be more hyped.
His reveal trailer shows the monster slayer in action, as he uses a combination of swordplay and magical signs to keep his opponents in check. And yes, his stage is Kaer Morhen, complete with very Witcher-y music.
Will you be maining Geralt in SoulCalibur VI? Keep those twin swords sharpened in the comments section below.

YES
Yes, I like this.
I like this, a lot.
After that one tweet from CD projekt red this became very predictable.
Hmm, only way to kill a Nightmare is with silver...
I really wanted him in Monster Hunter. I know they said future game but it would have been perfect.
@Splat Could still happen to be fair.
@Splat With Horizon, we got PS4 exclusive content paid for by Sony (possibly), the rest has so far been tie-ins for Capcom games to up-sell other titles to MHW players. Unfortunately, I cant see multiplatform non-Capcom third parties getting involved. I would love to be wrong though.
I bought Soul Calibur 5, I think, years ago because of Ezio. When I got to actually play the game, didn't really like it. Now I'm here years later watching the cycle start all over again. D*mn you, Geralt!
His move set looks genuinely awesome to play with. Also, it was cool to recognize all the spells and such.
@KratosMD I also think it's so cool that he became this big as a character. He's very much an unlikely hero. He's not handsome or made to have an instant universal appeal. But here we are!
He fits really well.
Still hoping 2B is another guest character, that would be just as awesome
@Tulio517 If it's any consolation, SoulCalibur V is probably one of the worst games in the series. It's not terrible but it's a definite low point. Hopefully VI is back with a bang.
Bring back Voldo
@AFCC Voldo will definitely be in it. I can't see them leaving out any of the original SoulCalibur cast.
I'm not into fighting games but i got chills hearing that Witcher music. Geralt's voice sounds a bit strange, though. Does Doug Cockle voice him in this?
best guest character since link@
Nice inclusion.
I still suck at fighting games and haven't played Witcher beyond the first hour of the first game, but consider me hyped for SoulCalibur VI now!
@ShogunRok My day is now a good day!
I think I’m going to buy this as my fighting game for the year. I haven’t played The Witcher 3 yet but I’m liking what I’m seeing.
@ShogunRok I'll be looking forward to your review, then!
Hah, Soul Calibur VI, you wish. This is just a Witcher spin-off with Soul Calibur characters, they're the ones who should feel lucky.
@Kidfried Geralt not handsome? I think he's pretty boy fly for sure, definitely amongst his witcher brethren...😆
Never played the witcher but I used to love sc back in the DC days. One thing I don't like.... His voice. Its not what I wanted him to sound like at all! Gutted about that tbh but as an inclusion into the sc universe I think it's great. Hopefully we'll see kratos, lara croft and maybe even something really cool like snake from mgs or the main hunter character from bloodborne.
I haven't gotten into The Witcher, but he does genuinely look fun to use.
@Kidfried Not handsome? Ah!
Well happy for those who wanted him but I dunno it is kinda sad to see Geralt involved in this sort of marketing shenanigans imho, like...he really wouldn't.
