SoulCalibur VI has a new gameplay trailer, showing off three returning characters. Oddly named and very anime newcomer Groh also joins the cast -- you may remember seeing a glimpse of him in the title's reveal trailer.
Those of you already familiar with the series will recognise Nightmare, Xianghua, and Kilik, who are all back for another round of hacking and slashing. All in all, we've now got six confirmed characters including Mitsurugi and Sophitia.
The game's still looking pretty slick, but what are your thoughts? Has your favourite character made it back in yet? Keep one hand on your blade in the comments section below.

Groh is a weeb's wet dream.
I swear the new characters in the past couple of games have not seemed to follow the theme of the series at all but I'll still give GROH a try.
These are coolest looking iterations of these characters by miles. And GROH looks sick. Definitely did not expect that staff to be able to split into two swords. Wonder if he has two modes, like Nightwing in Injustice, or if it's just based on moves.
Voldo or we riot!
I hope Talim or whatever here name is (the girl with the tonfas) as she was my main in Soul Caliber 2.
Looks like they're possibly bringing the characters that didn't show up in V. Cool. Though I do wonder if any SCV newcomers will appear here.
Nightmare's new design looks so sick
2B from Nier Automata as a guest character would make this a day one purchase for me.
Edit: Also if this game's DLC practices aren't absurd like a lot of other fighting games seem to be, then yeah I'll probably buy this. Just give me a 20 character base roster and I'll be good.
Kilik’s moves look amazing!
Looks like Raiden from Metal Gear rising
Kilik was always so annoying to fight against, wouldn't be Soul Calibur without him
Omg, did Kilik just get infected by Soul Edge?????
Sexy as hell, the new hair seems more anime than the original game. Always loved the Kilik turbo stick face slap and poke. Give me Cervantes I'm happy.
Great seeing my main man Nightmare back in action.
Oh, and the other veterans and some discount Metal Gear Rising Raiden looking dude.
I would like to see Cassranda and Chronicle of the Sword mode.

"I'm nothing but a ghost. Soul Edge didn't make the monster in me, it was always there! Just leave me alone! Other edgy lines"
All about it baby!
@DerMeister Unlikely, since this is a semi-remake of SC1.
Only characters I care about are Sophitia and Cassandra so they are 1/2
Kilik, glad he is back.
GROH is prononced like "fat" in French... This is going to be fun at parties.
So how about those custom characters? I can't fully get into it until those are confirmed to be back.
