Over the past week or so, rumours of SoulCalibur VI's release date have been gathering speed. Officially, all we've been told up to this point is that the weapon-based fighter is due out in 2018, but more specific dates have been passed around on social media and have appeared on a number of websites.
From what we gather, some of these dates originated on various retail websites. We didn't report on them because this happens all the time when it comes to placeholder dates. As is usually the case, though, this didn't stop word from spreading.
Fortunately the official SoulCalibur Twitter account has stepped in, declaring that these supposed release dates are fake. It asks fans to "stay tuned".
We have to imagine that an official release date announcement can't be that far off. We're now in the middle of April, and if SoulCalibur VI really is launching this year, then Bandai Namco will have no choice but to kick its marketing machine into gear relatively soon. Stay tuned indeed.

I had no idea fake rumors were going around. It would be funny if this has a September release as well.
@shonenjump86 I had the same thought a few days ago. Bandai would make a mistake to release it in September.
@Deadlyblack @shonenjump86 why would september be bad?
I think early October is really the only place they could slot this game. If it was coming in May thru August we would probably have heard by now. I think it would get obliterated if it came in September Orr November and December is where most games go to die so that just leaves that spots left from my expert internet analyst chair lol. Could easily see it being bumped to q1 2019 as well.
@IanDavid Because Spiderman PS4 DragonQuest 11 Shadow of the Tomb Raider and The Spyro Remaster all realease in September
@IanDavid pretty much what @3Above said. Just a lot of games coming out that month.
It’s only hope of is a July/August release. Here’s hoping.
