Soul Calibur 6 - Voldo Battle Director Comment

With every character reveal in Soul Calibur 6, the game's Battle Director Oosaka (@oosaka_twt) goes out to give small gameplay details on how the character plays in the new game. The recent of which is Voldo, and it gives a good overview of what the character is all about in terms of combat for newer players. It even gives a slight tease on unique properties for Voldo on the way his Soul Charge and Critical Edges work. I have localised the developer comment passage below but you can find the original source of it in Japanese over at the Gamer website:
