“Many people have already experienced the sword play and action of Soul Calibur, but we really wanted to expand its potential – and that’s why we decided to go in a new direction. We’d like to make Legends appeal even to people who have never played a game in the Soul Calibur series. By swinging the Wii Remote as players please, in-game characters will perform the exact sword actions that players are thinking of. The Nunchuk is mainly used for body movement, but by shaking the Nunchuk it’s also possible to block incoming attacks, evade dangerous situations, and to perform other unique moves. And there are various moves that can only be pulled off by combining Nunchuk and Wii Remote actions.”

– Soul Calibur Director, Jin Okubo
