Soul Calibur 6 expands its roster once again

Bandai Namco has announced that when Soul Calibur VI releases later in 2018, Voldo will join the ranks as a playable character.

Born in Palermo, Italy, Voldo was the vicious right-hand man of Vercci, an Italian weapons dealer and head of the Burg family - using his dual Jamadhar weapons, Manas & Ayus, to send deadly messages. 

Vercci amassed a huge fortune of weapons and treasures over his life, which he stored on an island in the middle of the Mediterranean, in a deep underground cavern known as the Money Pit. It was here where Voldo was stationed for much of his master’s life, and where he remained for many years after his master death, guarding the treasures within.

His years spent in the dark depths of the Money Pit caused Voldo to lose his eyesight, but where he also gained tremendous hearing and heightened senses. It was also where he developed his own, self-taught, but bizarre and unpredictable fighting style.

Voldo remains within The Money Pit, awaiting those foolish enough to try and steal its treasures, only to find themselves ensnared by the terrifying guardian lurking in the shadows.
