Our Soul Calibur 6 Moves List Guide will tell you about all the recommended moves that you should consider using to gain advantage over your opponents.
There are around 20 characters available to play with in Soul Calibur 6 upon release and our Soul Calibur 6 Moves List Guide will be taking you through each and every single one of them so that you can understand what you need to do in order to be successful.
Before we dive into the moves of each character, we will go ahead and look at the “Key” which will illustrate what each of the buttons does.
After that, we will look at the recommended moves of each character one by one because each character is different and has different playstyles.
The actual move system of the character is not that complex and does not use as many buttons as there are on a modern controller. The game is simple enough for it to be played without having to use the triggers and the bumpers.
Let us go ahead and see the moves for all of the characters one by one.
