See that zoom on her breasts just highlight how rough they are. It's not round, just like her arms. I guess it's the polygon count that's lacking? Kind of weird for a fighting game.

Roundness aside, I would have thought by now one on one fighters would have reached near CGI movie fidelity.
Graphically the genre hasn't evolved nearly as much as basically every other.
Might sound like a shallow thing to complain about, but I think impressive visuals would go a long way in making these games relevant again.

I'm very confident at least Team Ninja will wow us all when DOA6 finally is announced. They were always and they are still famed for their amazing character models. Nioh and Dissidia already proved they still got it and they won't hold back on their DOA ladies either. ;)

I assume low polycount model is to make switch port easy to do?
If that was it why not make the models tessellated and disable tessellation for Switch if it's really too much (I still think Switch could do better, these models aren't far from Smash's and that game has lots of more going on, not just an 1 on 1)?

Someone mention they partially reuse the model from last game. I guess Bandai decide its easier and cheaper to just updating old model that can be used for all platform rather than creating a whole new model from scratch for ps4,pc etc and then have to downres it again for the switch ver.

I like the mask. Good combination of this from 1/3 and her outfit from 2.
The markings appearing on her are weird though.

Well this pretty much confirms Talim will be back since Taki was in Vergeben's leak.

Soul Calibur III Taki design?

Does this mean extended timeline from 1-3 confirm?

At least I have way more hope for Tira now.

Good to see her back. I've never found Taki to be a particularly exciting character personally but she's one of the stalwarts. Doesn't look like they made her too porno either from what I can tell.

It doesn't confirm anything, but I still think it's "anything goes" in this reboot.

Taki looks good! Loving the mask and the seals on her a lot.

Oh thank God, my girl is back and she looks fucking great, though I'm as ambivalent on the mask as ever. Whatever, I can rest easy now.

I forget the move name at 34 seconds but that was my favorite move to spam in SC2. The game looks alright so far. Extra modes will make or break how well the game does. Also surprised we haven't seen a 3 way multi plat with exclusive characters like the Sc2 days

Well, there we go! I'm happy for those people who really wanted Taki. Now all we need is Talim and people can stop worrying about the roster (as much).

Character models are disappointing and offputting. Something about the game just doesn't looks so good. This is unfortunate because SC used to be a looker.

Nah more like an homage to her Soul Edge look.
Which also inspired the Soul Calibur 3 look.

But def not going to drag the story into Soul Calibur 3...all the characters and costumes revealed so far are Soul Edge/SC and SC2 inspired.

My favourite SC character is back, yeeeaahhh!! Still looking sexy, still has her classic moves, dual daggers is awesome and all those lighting effects/orbs look great still.

I know it's a homage/storyline prequel or whatever, but I would've liked to see some new outfits.

Hopefully the alts are good.
