Monday, 14th January 2008 at 10:43 am

Whilst, surprisingly, Darth Vader and Yoda are both confirmed as playable characters!

Ubisoft will distribute the next two releases in the Soul Calibur fighting franchise in Europe, following a deal with Namco Bandai.

The latest edition will be released under the Soul Calibur IV name on the Xbox 360 and PS3, and Soul Calibur Legends on the Wii. Both titles will be available in the summer.

Elsewhere, it has also been confirmed that legendary Star Wars duo Darth Vader and Jedi Master Yoda are set to appear as playable characters. The Dark Lord of the Sith will appear in the PS3 version, whilst the leader of the Jedi Council will grace the Xbox 360 version of the game.

MCV is still debating whether or not this is the single best piece of news we have ever heard.
