New gameplay footage of 2B in SoulCalibur VI has emerged, and despite the preview being around 20 minutes long, not much is actually shown. We get a good look at 2B's accompanying stage -- which is certainly pretty -- and a quick glimpse of several moves, but it would have been nice to see an actual fight. Ah well, all in good time, we suppose.
But we did notice one (potentially important) detail in the above video: 2B's clothes can be destroyed during battle. This is interesting because historically, guest characters in SoulCalibur games can't lose their clothing. Even Geralt, SoulCalibur VI's primary guest character, can't be stripped of his outfit. Much like in 2B's parent game NieR: Automata, her blindfold and the lower half of her dress can be torn off as she takes damage. We suppose that it's welcome attention to detail.
Hey, wipe that smirk off your face.
Think you'll be playing 2B in SoulCalibur VI? Don't get too excited in the comments section below.

Yikes, ya got me lol.
THICCCCCCCC... for a collection of humanoid-shaped polygons.
That's a good detail, good job bamco
I hope there's psn discount for this game on black friday.
10 people bought the game so Namco might be able to get away with this for a bit but once some people start posting vids on youtube and word gets out I don't see this going over well. Will get patched out a couple weeks after release, tops.
Anyway, no buy from me, $30 for the season pass seems a tad too expensive for the light amount of content. NetherRealm is the only one that does these things right in the fighting genre anymore.
Seriously though, I’m really enjoying SC6. A big step up from 5.
@Gamer83 But people already posting vids of female chars broken armor on youtube..
that tag line
keeping it classy Push Square
@shonenjump86
A big step up but sadly judging by sales it seems a little too late to save the series. And I can't really blame consumers. The IP was dead for a while after 3 consecutive mediocre to bad releases and then when this hits the market it was only a week before the biggest event (Rockstar's games deserve that praise) in gaming this year. Consumer confidence was shaken by SC 3-5 and it's a shame because with 2 and especially 1 on Dreamcast this series was class of the genre along with Street Fighter.
@wiiware
Give it time, they gotta censor the more niche games first.
@Gamer83 Did you change your avatar to PJ Masks? I knew you were young, but I didn't think you were that young. 😉
I have to say, 'titilation' in video games, even in this day and age is just plain creepy. I have no idea why the Japanese are so obsessed with it in particular. Was weird, is weird, will always be weird.
@Gamer83 I definitely agree that SC kinda lost its touch when 3 came around. I did enjoy 4 but 3 and 5 are pretty weak. This could be the last game in the series but I’ll be ok with that.
Clothes are lost at 15:25, for anyone who actually wants to see what this article’s going on about instead of a quarter-hour of endless crabwalking.
If you've got it, flaunt it.
Mmmh. I love butts. That is all.
Gotta stay true to the source material
@rjejr
What is that? LMAO. I changed my avatar but to Mega Man 11.
Soul Calibur VI.. you have my attention.
Glory to Mankind
I wonder if it can break normally or only when you self destruct by doing a CE at low health.
They went to so much effort with the character's moveset, so many cool-looking moves with the different weapons, even the fishing chair lol. The pod attacks all seem very easy to sidestep.
Can't wait, made the season pass worth it for sure.
@shonenjump86
Agree, if this is how it goes out at least it's going out on a high. Would've been a shame if 5 was the lasting memory.
@shonenjump86 you guys are crazy if you think 3 was bad. Best in the series imo. Disliked 4 and 5 though.
@Kidfried Trolling would mean he’s not serious. I believe he’s quite serious even if we disagree with him.
@Kidfried it isn't trolling. It is wrong, however, as it won't be patched out.
Stuck on which fighter to choose... 2B or not 2B...
@ztpayne7 I just couldn’t get into 3 for some reason. I’ll take that over 5 though.
Surprised Sony didn’t censor it.

Considering the source material, I would be more disappointed if she DIDN'T lose her clothes.
"Even Geralt, SoulCalibur VI's primary guest character, can't be stripped of his outfit."
The difference between bundled content & paid DLC
As a fan, I’m impressed with the accuracy of the NieR Automata representation in the game. 2B looks really good, her moves are pretty close to what she might do in the real game, and the inclusion of the pod and the dual weapons is great. She even sits on her holographic seat for that one move — like when she’s fishing in the real game. The stage is very true to the post apocalyptic world in the NieR game also. The little Easter eggs with the twins, the robots in the background, the broken highway, ..all quite well done.
@Gamer83 OK, I can see MM11 now if I squint really hard. Well I can see it's Megaman, can't make out the rest.
PJ Masks is one of the really popular little kids tv shows at the moment. If you saw any kids 4 and under trick-or-treating then you saw at least 3 of those costumes. Not as big as Paw Patrol, but a similar show.
@rjejr I'm gonna be 30 in 2 months and I watch PJ Masks. Well okay, I've only seen the first few episodes but from what I've seen the show is decent.
Tried getting into Paw Patrol but just don't care for it...really wish Disney Jr. hadn't canceled Jake loved that show.

Too distracted to fight
Regrets nothing
@KidBoruto I watched all the popular kid shows into my 40's b/c I was a stay-at-home dad w/ 2 young kids. I watch some of these now b/c my nephew/godson likes them so when I see him we usually spend an hour watching them on demand. The only one I like is Beat Bugs but I can manage Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. I need to get him into Phineas and Ferb, I watch that one by myself b/c I like it.
