Yoshimitsu confirmed for Soul calibur V!

We saw it coming. Yoshimitsu confirmed for the fifth Soul Calibur!

Yes! He's confirmed!

What is new, though? It's not the same Yoshi as in previous Soul Caliburs!
Yes, you've got it right: we will meet the second generation leader and the inheritor of the Spirit Sword!

I'm so curious as for his personality. Will it be the same or will it have some original traits?

But first, let's enjoy the screens. :)
The first one is quite ... expressive. Poor Yoshi. But that's the Manji fate...

yea, I saw it today as well!
I'm so hyped for it!
(REALLY LOVING THE COSTUME!!)

also, I figured it's the new manji leader, but why does he have the same bionic arm like the previous leader?
What's the deal with that??

also lizardman w wings = lol

I suppose he cut it off by himself, LOL ^^
(or lost it during the ritual duel with his master?)

We can only guess ;)

"You will be the new leader... but you've gotta get rid of that hand of yours. No excuses."

"Why so serious?"

:P

ahhahah exactly, it's just a bit odd :p

perhaps it could be the arm of the old leader, who refused to let go of the katana xD

lol you guys are funny! Or maybe, as Master Jin Kwon once said, “Rituals involving strenuous and/or repetitive physical movements are meant to free the mind of all frivolous thoughts and divert the focus to the point of one-mindedness or absolute concentration.” Cutting off your arm sounds pretty strenuous to me! :P

I'm loving the flame motiffe, seems to suit this new Yoshi's fiery personality. Huge sigh of relief that he made it into the new game. :D

I love the whole split mask thing looks cool and unique and it reminds me abit Ghost since his is the spirit of vengeance.

Well If he didn't, he would considered a sissy in manji clan compared to yoshimitsu, who is willing able to do a suicide.

The "moral" of the story is that you shall not wear a mask namco fighting game.

Note too, that his SC1 stage makes a reappearance :)
Personally I liked his lava stage in SC3, but this is still really cool!

Mount fuji stages for Yoshimitsu are ALWAYS awesome

Yoshi seems to dislike his old costume a lot :( This costume is lovely though... Makes it a lot more painful than it should be that I don't own a ps3.
