How to unlock all 18 Soul Calibur 4 secret characters and treasure chest items (guide)

Soul Calibur 4 character select screen
How to unlock all secret Soul Calibur 4 characters? That question will be answered in this guide that shows you who to unlock to get the full roster and how.

The Soul Calibur 4 characters select screen has room for plenty of bonus characters (minus your own character creation). — At the moment Yoda is exclusive to the Xbox 360 version and Darth Vader is exclusive to the PS3 version, although Namco Bandai has hinted both characters may be made available through downloadable content on the other’s console at a later date. This would also explain the blank space in the character roster.

Below we’ve listed the 18 secret characters in alphabetical order. Take the following steps to unlock each one.

1. Algol: Successfully complete Story mode with a character that fights Algol as the final Boss (Mitsurugi, Taki or others).
2. Amy: Purchase her in the Character Creation for 4000 gold.
3. Angol Fear: Defeat her in Story mode with Scheherazade, Darth Vader, The Apprentice, Algol, Kilik or Zasalamel.
4. Ashlotte: Defeat her in Story mode with Talim, Angol Fear, Astaroth, Lizardman, Maxi or Rock.
5. Cervantes de Leon: Purchase him in the Character Creation for 4000 gold.
6. Hong Yun-seong: Purchase him in the Character Creation for 4000 gold.
7. Kamikirimusi: Defeat her in Story mode with Cassandra or Mitsurugi.
8. Lizardman (Aeon Calcos): Purchase him in the Character Creation for 4000 gold.
9. Rock (Nathaniel Adams): Purchase him in the Character Creation for 4000 gold.
10. Scheherazade: Defeat her in Story mode with Yoda, Nightmare, Voldo, Siegfried, Yoshimitsu, or pretty much anyone else.
11. Seong Mi-na: Purchase her in the Character Creation for 4000 gold.
12. Setsuka: Purchase her in the Character Creation for 4000 gold.
13. Shura: Defeat her in Story mode with Cervantes de Leon, Rapahel, Setsuka, or Taki.
14. Sophitia Alexandra: Purchase her in the Character Creation for 4000 gold.
15. Talim: Purchase her in the Character Creation for 4000 gold.
16. The Apprentice AKA Darth Vader’s Secret Apprentice AKA Starkiller: Successfully complete Arcade mode with Yoda on Xbox 360 or Darth Vader on PS3. — A good tip to easily unlock The Apprentice is to assign R2 the A+G button combo. This gives Vader the “Emperor Toss” move as a grab and the Apprentice seems to be really vulnerable to it. You can do it again and again until he is mush easily.
17. Yoshimitsu: Purchase him in the Character Creation for 4000 gold.
18. Zasalamel: Purchase him in the Character Creation for 4000 gold.

Note: Two runs through the Story mode will give you enough gold to get the buyable characters

Since the Soul Calibur 4 character select screen at the top of this page is incomplete. Here’s a video showing a full roster, while the awesome theme music plays.


In Soul Calibur 4’s Tower of Lost Souls you can unlock treasure chests by completing the floors. It’s handy to know that once you’ve finished a floor, you can continue from there without having to start from floor 1.

  1. thank you!!!

    by joe on Jul 29, 2008 at 5:44 pm

  2. thanks. i couldn’t get the apprentice and it was pissing me off.

    by kirk on Jul 29, 2008 at 6:11 pm

  3. whos the blank space next to vader or yoda?

    by madcow on Jul 29, 2008 at 6:31 pm

  4. The blank space is more than likley going to be for DLC on either system. More than likely it will be Yoda for the PS3 and Vader on the 360. This would go along with the rumors around the net right now and is about the only thing that would really make sense.

    by Ramon on Jul 29, 2008 at 10:23 pm

  5. Lol, but what characters fight who in story mode? So far I’ve gotten:

    Scheherazade by doing story with Yoda
    Ashlotte by doing story with Talim

    I’m going to go do the story mode with the other characters until I get all the unlockables, but if anyone wants to save me some time please post which characters fight who, thanks!

    by Austin on Jul 30, 2008 at 2:37 am

  6. Secret Apprentice is the last one I have don’t have on there. That other blank spot really bothers me though.

    by Anna Peterson on Jul 30, 2008 at 2:54 am

  7. Just got Kamikurimusi with Cassandra!

    by Austin on Jul 30, 2008 at 2:57 am

  8. Just got Angol Fear with Scheherazade!

    by Austin on Jul 30, 2008 at 3:26 am

  9. And shura is unlocked with cervantes — so to recap:

    Scheherazade - Story mode with Yoda, Nightmare, Voldo, or pretty much anyone else.
    Kamikurimusi - Story Mode with Cassandra
    Angol Fear - Story Mode with Scheherazade
    Ashlotte - Story Mode with Talim
    Shura - Story mode with Cervantes
    Apprentice - Beat ARCADE (not story) with Yoda
    Other unlockable chars - Buy them, two runs through the story will give you enough gold.

    Hope this helped everyone who was confused why they kept fighting Scheherazade every play through on different chars!

    Peace — Happy fighting!

  11. Thanks a lot Austin! I’ve added your tips to the guide with a nod to you. :)

    by supadupagama on Jul 30, 2008 at 5:00 am

  12. Also would like to point out that, at least on the 360 version, theres 10 purchasable characters, not including the 6 unlocked through story and apprentice. Of course they don’t really need a spot in the guide since its a no-brainer, but it bears mentioning that if you’ve only unlocked 10 you aren’t done. :P

    by Austin on Jul 30, 2008 at 5:11 am

  13. Jeez, I wish I could just edit my replies instead of spamming this out — anyway — Maybe not 10, possibly 12, I can’t count them for sure since I’ve bought them all, but even Talim must be purchased, despite being in the last game as a basic character, there’s several others like her. Main point: Just look in the character creation menu before you start fighting and pick out which ones you’re going to buy — At least 5 people I’ve talked to went straight to fighting and had no idea how many characters there were to buy, and its really easy to get them all.

    by Austin on Jul 30, 2008 at 5:15 am

  14. Thanks again Austin! :D I looked into it and you’re right, I’ve added all buyable characters to the unlockable character list now. It went from a total of 10 to 18 characters!

    I also found the treasure items list, so that’s part of the guide now too.

    by supadupagama on Jul 30, 2008 at 5:50 am

  15. Wow, that treasure list is a big one, I havent even gotten into that mode yet, been too busy unlocking all the chars — gonna do it right now, thanks!

    by Austin on Jul 30, 2008 at 11:05 am

  16. How do you get the bonus characters such as Revenant? I saw him on there in the Arcade Mode…

    by Irvin on Jul 30, 2008 at 11:44 am

  17. hey, was just wondering, how do you attack throw? i need it to get the item on the 4th floor i think

    by Pope on Jul 30, 2008 at 12:50 pm

  18. I believe its either countering someones attack with a throw, or using a special kind of throw. Most characters have 3-5 different types of throws depending on whether they’re standing, crouching, running, blocking, being attacked, dodging an attack, sidestepping, etc etc. My bet is that one of those is considered an “attack throw” but I’m not 100%

    by Austin on Jul 30, 2008 at 2:42 pm

  19. I was wondering, for the Playstation 3, i have unlocked pretty much all the Extra and secret characters on the roster available in the image that has been posted of the 34 characters (including the 5 bonus females and Algol) but there is still 1 character slot open, is that even a character? if so how do i unlock it?

  21. The blank slot is for yoda or darth depending on the system.

    by CiDhed on Jul 30, 2008 at 7:00 pm

  22. Well I’m not sure, but from what I read, they might make the alternate Star Wars character available to each system after a little while as DLC. Meaning PS3 will get Yoda then, and 360 will get Vader. But we’ll see. It would make sense though, since the open slot is sitting right with the other 2 Star Wars characters.

    by brizzle on Jul 30, 2008 at 7:16 pm

  23. I wonder how the animation and the single player ending will be and how many megs will it be? I hope its a free download (though they may put the character for 400 GP which will suck BALLZ).

    by LeeZter07 on Jul 30, 2008 at 8:32 pm

  24. its a realy big problem when your mom wont buy highspeed and you are stuck with dialup and you cant get xbox live

    by cade on Jul 31, 2008 at 4:50 pm

  25. The Apprentice, Ashlotte, and Kamikirimusi are the blank spaces. Get the Apprentice by beating Arcade mode with Yoda. Get Ashlotte by beating her in story mode with Talim. And you get Kamikirimusi when you beat her with Cassandra. Both girls you get in story mode, and the Apprentice you get through Arcade. Now go forth and whoop *ss

    by ManFromEarth on Jul 31, 2008 at 5:49 pm

  26. Ashlotthe, Kamikirimusi, Shura, Angol Fear and Scheherazade are all in the top right box with a sub menu.

    by ManFromEarthNoob on Jul 31, 2008 at 6:52 pm

  27. All the FMV (endings/intros) is on the game disc, no content download.

    by Anonymous on Jul 31, 2008 at 6:53 pm

  28. All i want to know is when vader is unlockable or how to unlock him. The blank spot annoys me.

    by Anonymous on Aug 1, 2008 at 8:35 am

  29. thats a point it says downloadable content when it loads? mabye thats somthing for the future

    by me on Aug 1, 2008 at 1:08 pm

  30. o well i hope xbox will get darth and ps3 get yoda

    by me on Aug 1, 2008 at 1:10 pm

  31. dammit, only get yoda on 360

    by mee on Aug 1, 2008 at 3:44 pm

  32. darth will be available for download later on on the 360… yoda ma be downloadable for tha ps3 later on but there is no conformation for that.

    by karo on Aug 1, 2008 at 5:28 pm

  33. well according to the article it will be vice versa on both equally

    by Azuthix on Aug 1, 2008 at 7:42 pm

  34. they have changed it now darth is only for ps3 and yoda is only for 360 luky for me i got the ps3 one cause 360s are the sh*tes console ever made.

    by john on Aug 1, 2008 at 7:56 pm

  35. who is the missing character on the grid and how do you unlock him/her?

    by mike on Aug 1, 2008 at 9:40 pm

  36. My console is being a donkey and not letting me get the “start of a new era” achievement…..suggestions anyone??

    by Random Person on Aug 1, 2008 at 10:25 pm

  37. for floor no. 26 in tower of lost souls, does anyone know how to get a 10+ combo. Its bs enough to try to get a 6 or 7 hit already.

    by eric on Aug 2, 2008 at 4:10 am

  38. Use Cervantes crouched AB attack, it should hit a lot real fast and get you a 10+ combo.

    by Dashing on Aug 2, 2008 at 9:38 am

  39. Yoda is pretty good considering that he can’t be thrown.

    by o.o on Aug 2, 2008 at 6:32 pm

  40. thats really msyupid that 360 cant get vader I wanted him way more then yoda.

    by Joe on Aug 2, 2008 at 7:12 pm

  41. Joe:

    If you have Xbox Live, Vader will be on there later for download.

    Same as with Yoda will be on PS3

    by DominicThaDBZFan on Aug 2, 2008 at 7:27 pm

  42. Mike– The empty slot on the grid, at least on the 360 version, is the slot where Darth Vader will later be when he is released as a downloadable character.

    by Otoha on Aug 3, 2008 at 5:47 am

  43. for the person that is having trouble with the “start a new era” achievement and anyone else that is having problems with that, u just need to watch the beginning video from front to back. its pretty long and boring but this is a time where u can use the bathroom, get urself something to drink, have some personal time… anything to pass the time by.

    by Kurt on Aug 3, 2008 at 6:06 am

  44. where/when do you fight against yoda? is it in arcade mode or story mode and do you have to be a certain person to fight him?

    by Matt on Aug 3, 2008 at 1:01 pm

  45. where/when do you have the chance to fight against yoda for an achievement? is it in arcade or story mode, does the difficulty matter as well as character?

    by Matt on Aug 3, 2008 at 1:03 pm

  46. One way i found a way to fight yoda was to play as the apprentice in arcade mode and difficulty does not matter…u dont even have to win!

    by George on Aug 3, 2008 at 3:12 pm

  47. Do you have to have 1,000,000 in your bank or spend as you go as long as you earn the gold for the achievement?

    by Steve on Aug 3, 2008 at 6:34 pm

  48. i heard that darth was garbage, yoda is better and whoever said that the 360 is garbage, might wanna look it up, ps3 may be more powerfull but it doesnt support 1080p for this game, the 360 does.

    by david on Aug 3, 2008 at 7:53 pm

  49. I just rented this game, it sorta sucks. But maybe thats because ive never really enjoyed fighter games, gets repetitive as hell. Plus i have a feeling that due to the 360 having a small disc size (not blu ray) the story campaign for each character was shortened (its only 5 stages ffs)

    by Collin on Aug 3, 2008 at 9:17 pm

  50. well i got most of the achievements so far but im cant seem to get the just impact achievement is there a special way or what because when i block it gives me a guard block

    im confused..

    by raul on Aug 3, 2008 at 10:49 pm

  51. To verse yoda, you must beat arcade mode with yoda, then you get the apprectice. The play arcade mode with the apprentice and you will verse yoda.

    by Jacob on Aug 3, 2008 at 11:01 pm

  52. Thanks for the new tips guys, I’ve added your detailed explanations to the guide! :)

    by supadupagama on Aug 4, 2008 at 5:02 am

  53. Not sure if it was said or not, don’t have time to read all the comments, but you don’t have to buy characters during creation to unlock them. I have one empty box at the very top next to Vader (PS3), but all my other boxes are open and unlocked pluss the multiple characters in the top right box. All I did was play Story mode a few times with the already available characters.

    by Whynot on Aug 4, 2008 at 7:50 am

  54. hey, on xbox 360 i av unlocked yoday and the epprentice, but how do i unlock darth vader? let me know on the e-mail please if anyone knows cheerz jamie-bromley@hotmail.co.uk

    by james on Aug 4, 2008 at 1:00 pm

  55. To get a just impact you have to impact right when there weapon hits you.
    Like a regular impact is you hitting away their weapon before it hits you.

    by o.o on Aug 4, 2008 at 4:26 pm

  56. james, darth vader is exclusive to ps3, and yoda to the 360

    by -.- on Aug 5, 2008 at 8:25 am

    by Mark on Aug 5, 2008 at 2:55 pm

  60. Mark, go into “Character creation” menu and buy the characters. They are all 4000 gold.

    by Pat on Aug 5, 2008 at 6:04 pm

  61. does anyone know how to use the gems that you unlock in the tower of souls?

  62. hey guys, great guide! you did a great job of organizing the information in an easy to read manner. This is one of the first free guides ive read that was completely accurate. nice work!

    by Dietro on Aug 5, 2008 at 10:57 pm

  63. its f*cking amazing how many times the question pertaining to the empty slot has been asked and answered. Are people that stupid?

    by fail on Aug 5, 2008 at 11:30 pm

  64. also

    for all those of you saying that vader sucks and that yoda is much better, it’s only because yoda is cheap. Half the attacks don’t hit him and he can’t be thrown, he’s more of a novelty than anything.

    by fail on Aug 5, 2008 at 11:31 pm

  65. for message 48 its the game thats 720p not that the ps3 cant handle it.Im sure if they made the ps3 game like that and it has way more power the 360 game is the same.but the xbox 360 dose suck

    by dr3pk on Aug 6, 2008 at 12:33 am

  66. Its not that I can get characters… its that when I go to create them, changing the the physique, skin color, is not available. Is it something I have to unlock

    by Mark on Aug 6, 2008 at 5:50 am

  67. Hey great guide,
    to answer ‘mark’ post 66 you cant change them things on existing charactes only on your ones

    by jordan on Aug 6, 2008 at 8:16 am

  68. Easy unlock for Apprentice in Arcade mode…

    Assign R2 the A+G button combo. This gives Vader the “Emperor Toss” move as a grab and the Apprentice seems to be really vulnerable to it. You can do it again and again until he is mush easily…lol! I got tired of fighting him…

    by Jheric on Aug 6, 2008 at 8:49 am

  69. Was anyone as confused as I was for the ‘Numeric God’ achievement? ‘Measure the two passages of time and win’ is, at best, extremely vague. I’m personally surprised nobody has given a real description of how to get it.

    Oh well, just play a match, and finish it so that the two last digits in the fight counter are equal to the two last digits in total play time. Might wanna take note.

    by Qegola on Aug 6, 2008 at 10:52 am

  70. Thanks for tha answer .. is there any team mode like in III ? Like, so my son and I can pick a bunch of guys and fight each other

    by Mark on Aug 6, 2008 at 12:03 pm

  71. Another big thanks to everyone giving tips on the harder to unlock things. I’ve added all your names to the kudos list at the end of the guide. Let me know if you want your name behind the tip you gave though, I can do that too. On average there’ve been over 30 people reading this page at all times for the past week now, so you’re helping a lot of fellow fans out.

    by supadupagama on Aug 6, 2008 at 5:34 pm

  72. Persuer of the Secret - Persuer of the Secret..? Just noticed an error. Not hard to figure it out, but (without reference, so I might be wrong) isn’t that completing Story on Normal? I can’t remember, but I’m sure that one’s pretty easy to get…

    by Qegola on Aug 6, 2008 at 6:57 pm

  73. who is the character next to vader and how do i get him/her?

    by john on Aug 7, 2008 at 4:02 pm

  74. on the xbox 360 stange joda on darthvaders place can i get darthvader on the place next to joda or can’t i get darthvader

    by Dennis on Aug 7, 2008 at 4:06 pm

  75. Its amazing how few people can be bothered to read earlier posts…
    The space is just empty. Yoda is 360 exclusive and Vader is PS3 exclusive. Until maybe when Namco release some more DLC.

    by Qegola on Aug 7, 2008 at 7:49 pm

  76. Angol Fear can also be obtained with Darth Vader.

    by Nintendragon on Aug 7, 2008 at 9:46 pm

  77. this game is like an orgasim

    by soulcalibur4life on Aug 8, 2008 at 2:31 am

  78. Thanks a bunch, some of the bonus characters are awesome.
    Especially Shura.

    Hopefully what you said about namco maybe releasing yoda/darth vader for PS3/360 will be true, the character list is bare with that 1 free slot!

    Also I agree with soulcalibur4life
    This game is like a constant orgasim haha

    by Stuey on Aug 8, 2008 at 11:53 am

  79. Can you use what’s in the treasure chest? What’s if for anyway?

    by Anne on Aug 8, 2008 at 3:50 pm

  80. i got everyone but there is this other guy i don’t have and he is next to darth vader how do i get him?

    by Thavi on Aug 9, 2008 at 5:12 am

  81. Awesome tipster, I was thrashing away at tower of souls to try and get my favorite characters.

    Definitely an orgasimic game.

    by Tim on Aug 9, 2008 at 7:00 am

  82. So I found the treasure chest on floor 15, but where does the Submissions Belt go? I cannot find it in character creation or when I edit the looks for a already existing character. Anyone had this problem?

    by Stefan on Aug 10, 2008 at 2:58 am

  83. Okay I feel really stupid asking this, but I have no friggen idea how to “switch allies” or whatever during a mission in the Tower of Souls. I’ve pressed every button on my 360 controller and still can’t figure it out.

    “3f - Pauldron, switch with ally more than 2 times”

    Anything that involves switching the chars I can’t do until I figure it out lol. Help a moron out?

    by Matt on Aug 10, 2008 at 3:39 pm

  84. @Matt - Hit “RB” when you’re not attacking or being attacked.

    by Justin on Aug 10, 2008 at 7:12 pm

  85. right bumper… right next to the right trigger (RB)

    by helping a moron on Aug 10, 2008 at 7:13 pm

  86. how do i get the phoenix achievement cause i made a char w/ only a chest piece and had it brake and won but it doesnt work

    by another gamer on Aug 10, 2008 at 8:51 pm

  87. Ahhh.. see what the problem prolly is is that I change the top buttons so they actually do something useful lol. I’ll have to figure out what that button combo is in default. Thanks.

    by Matt on Aug 10, 2008 at 10:33 pm

  88. I have PS3.
    I have all the voodoo equipment from unlocking the 30 honor point.
    but it only appear on female characters.

    My male characters does not have any voodoo equipment.

    Does it mean that I need to get the male equipment from Tower ?

    by Kilik on Aug 11, 2008 at 2:07 am

  89. At Quegola, (Post 69, Numeric God Achievment) I just unlocked it yesterday and I’m sure that the numbers “Total PLay Time” and the “Time Remaining in a Victorious Battle” must match.

  91. how do u get two cannot exist together achievement

    by Steven on Aug 11, 2008 at 10:27 am

  92. to get the “two cannot exist together” achievement, just get a double KO

    by Jon on Aug 11, 2008 at 1:40 pm

  93. In create a character, what was the name of the pants that have a hakama look to them and a huge belt with a rope knot on the front. you start out with them when you first start soul caliber 4 create a character. They also have japanese symbols and insignias at the bottom of both pant legs.
    I just want to know the name.

    by Skull Ronin on Aug 11, 2008 at 3:09 pm

  94. How do you equip rings and gems on custom and regular characters? So far, I have only been able to equip on the bonus characters (such as Shura).

    Is that because you can’t really change any of their other equipment (clothes, armor, etc) and it still provides a way to boost them with the unlockable rings/gems?

    By the way, I think it kinda sucks that they applied all this stat stuff for the clothes/armor. It’s nice that it gives it more depth and more thought is required, but then you have to alter their look just because the equipment you would normally pick gives them terrible stats.

    Example: Nightmare spine. Totally badass, but gives no stats, so you’re missing out on some of the other huge stat bonuses by not equipping silly capes.

    by Figment on Aug 11, 2008 at 4:16 pm

  95. Oh yeah, here’s another one: Is there any way, (other than using various equipment and weapons), to boost the amount of stat points, such as Guage/Boost/Impact, etc.?

    When I level up a character I have not noticed much of a benefit. I don’t see any increase in stat points or equipment availability.

    by Figment on Aug 11, 2008 at 4:20 pm

  96. @Figment:

    Leveling up a charakter gives you more special abilities for example “invisibility” is available when you reached level 9 i think.

    And you’re right it kinda sucks with the equipment + stats. But I do create charakters that look cool for normal versus and some with silly outfir but badass stats for special versus.

    by Julian on Aug 12, 2008 at 2:34 pm

  97. Oh yeah I forgot my question: Is it possible to unlock voices from some of the existing characters? And if, how? When you have 30 achievments or more?

    by Julian on Aug 12, 2008 at 2:36 pm

  98. i unlocked some of the chests but when i go to character creation but the items show up

    whats going on?

    by David (lacrosse) on Aug 12, 2008 at 5:39 pm

  99. Guys, I want to know if you can create a character that uses The Apprentice’s style, a light saber for example, do I have to unlock that?
    Because I go to create character and I saw some that said NEW..Does that mean anything? I just want to make a character that uses light sabers, basically another Apprentice with a different look.
    Thanks for your time

    by Penkoff on Aug 13, 2008 at 2:21 am

  100. You don’t have to choose clothes just for the stats, there are many modes in Soul Calibur IV that don’t use special stats at all, so they could go completely naked if they wanted and still they’d have the stats of a normal character, you can do this online and in arcade mode.

    by Mikey D on Aug 13, 2008 at 8:46 am

  101. I don’t think you can play around with the Apprentice at all in character creation/customization. He is a property of another company and they seem to be picky about this.

    by Stefan on Aug 13, 2008 at 1:22 pm

  102. Ok I’ve found out that:

    - there arent more voices for costum character than the existing 7.

    - You cant unlock a custom jedi character

    Could it be that some of the equipment that you can use (e.g. spy mask) is only available for female characters and vice-versa?
    Cause that would suck!

    by Julian on Aug 13, 2008 at 3:43 pm

  103. Yeah the armor is gender specific, you need honors/achevments to unlock all the armor pieces.

    by Gaza on Aug 13, 2008 at 5:41 pm

  104. some chests give armor for just male or female ect

    by cody on Aug 14, 2008 at 3:18 am

  105. Can u create any characters using the lightsaber weapon at all??? I want to create luke and stuff… wtf did they not put that option in the game???

    by Joey on Aug 15, 2008 at 1:24 am

  106. they let you give yoda/vader and apprentice new lightsabers but thats it

    by normando2200 on Aug 15, 2008 at 4:05 pm

  107. why is there a space between yoda and the apprentise dude is there another charecter???

    by pete on Aug 17, 2008 at 9:13 am

  108. uhhhhh
    can u use specail equipment like gems and rings on custom characters?
    if so how?

    by Dude with a question on Aug 17, 2008 at 10:41 pm

  109. to get the apprentice u have to beat arcade mode with yoda u

    u have 2 have a 360 or u can figure out how 2 get yoda on PS3

    by im a dude on Aug 18, 2008 at 3:14 pm

  110. The blank space between Yoda and the apprentice is for Vader, same goes the other way around for the PS3 we have a blank space where yoda would be.

    Special equipment (rings and gems) are for bonus toons, starwars toons, and none editable versions of normal toons (ie. Astaroth in his spikes) They are the last menu on the equipment list, and is not useable with other toons.

    TBH Starwars toons should have been left out of the game, Vader sucks hard and Starkiller is imba vs. slow toons.

    by rrphillip on Aug 18, 2008 at 3:52 pm

  111. wooooooooooooo fighting games blow! its just whatever characters the cheapest and they take no skill at all. ur all losers and think ur good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! go suck it.

    by Thisgameblows on Aug 18, 2008 at 8:28 pm

  112. People here are talking about something they enjoy, while you are spending time looking at a site about something you don’t like and more time still commenting on it. Who is the real loser in this scenario? I’m going to assume you got beat pretty bad online, and then booted out for lacking in skill and personality. You fail at life.

    by Stefan on Aug 20, 2008 at 6:01 am

  115. Why is being a troll fun? Do you like to be known as the intolerable *sshole in your group of friends? Do you say useless crap like this in public to complete strangers?

    What makes you think it’s okay to do, here, then? I’m tired of the liscense anonymity gives to selfish individuals. Grow up, douchebag.

    by Criell on Aug 21, 2008 at 2:55 pm

  119. Is there a Official Strategy guide to this game? In bookform or on the net?

    by Stefan on Aug 21, 2008 at 3:10 pm

  120. In case anybody is wondering. The description to attack throws is a little unclear. Actually attack throws are normal attacks but when they hit the charcter does an extra move kinda like a throw. E.g. nightmares crouched forward b attack. It took me some time to figuere this out cause I first thought about normal throws.

    To the guy who made this site: Change the description.

  123. So, how come that 85% of the 122 posts are about the f*cking blank spot in the character list & the damned gems, questions that have been answered 1 million times? Holy sh*t are people THAT stupid? No wonder why people give you a weird look when you say you love video gaming.

  143. hey look at Rock, he looks like Triple H. o btw, im a Soul Calibur fan and i think in terms of the story endings and its plots, darth vader is much more of a villain compared to algol. if they will make SC 5, i just hope that darth vader will remain but this time as a boss lol, he’s much more imba in the story especially in the ending compared to algol :))

    by navyzil on Sep 3, 2008 at 7:42 am

  144. i prefer to use a custom made chacter … the best combo i found so far is a heavy weight…not that it matters…with nightmares move set and seeings how nightmare is a slow character i also use a special that increases my run speed….it is f-ing amazing….and i look bad *ss too…handsome in a way

  170. Hey soulman, the reason you made so many basic spelling errors is the exact same reason as to why you think Soul Calibur IV and Super Smash Brothers Brawl sucks - you’re a dumbass.

  178. Does anyone know what the little symbols in the upper right hand of the box of your opponent in story mode (and possibly the others) are? It’s been driving me crazy! I’m talking about the yellow circle, blue diamond, green triangle, etc, etc.

    by Jen on Dec 11, 2008 at 3:39 am

  179. After playing Barbarian on the Atari ST - It’s a shame you can’t turn on/off any gore setting (parental control of course). Love Soul calibur - just wish there was a blood loss emphasis when players were struck.

    by Paul on Dec 12, 2008 at 3:45 am

  180. Excellent observation.

    by wow on Dec 15, 2008 at 6:56 pm

    by edrfgh on Dec 28, 2008 at 3:48 pm

  185. I have mastered Taki ! I cannot be defeated ! Each and everyone of you who posted a question concerning the missing character slot without having read the numerous responses to that very same question in previous posts are ignorant and annoying. Zazalamel is a dirty b*tch.

    by starkiller on Feb 13, 2009 at 9:05 pm

  194. Tower of Lost Souls question.
    Most of the times when I do well on a floor and it tells me I have aquired a certain item, I cannot equip that item later. For example, I recently “aquired” Honor Boots. I made sure I saved, then I went to edit my character to equip them, they do not show up. This is very frustrating. Please help!!

    by Denny on Feb 17, 2009 at 11:07 am

  195. @ Andre M

    yeah because as we all know, Yoda is renowned for sucking. XD

    by Trilbydude on Feb 17, 2009 at 3:59 pm

  196. 194: probably because many equipment pieces are gender-specific, and you tried to find it with a character of the other gender.

    Also, re: gems/rings: only game characters, not custom characters, can equip special items. Some characters have other special equipment, like Nightmare, who has different right arms. For gems/rings, the game character’s equipment set must be 1P/2P (that is, uneditable).

    by rodneyanonymous on Feb 17, 2009 at 10:18 pm

  197. very good got alot of help thank you. but one thing thats really annoying and i dont know how to get. i have the PS3 version and how do i get the wolf head that Auguste has cos i really want it.

    by Plumpefiski on Feb 22, 2009 at 8:02 am

  198. * Unlock Animal Head Equipment by achieving 25 achievements.

    by rodneyanonymous on Feb 24, 2009 at 6:56 pm

  199. Does anyone know how to unlock the treasure for lvl 39 i dont get what it means by not changing positions as there is only one character you can use?

    by Aj on Feb 26, 2009 at 3:23 am

  200. on the xbox 360 version, on tower of souls I can only play on half the floors on accending. Why is this? how do I unlock the other half?

    by stevo on Feb 28, 2009 at 7:14 am

  201. “A good tip to easily unlock The Apprentice is to assign R2 the A+G button combo. This gives Vader the “Emperor Toss” move as a grab and the Apprentice seems to be really vulnerable to it. You can do it again and again until he is mush easily.”

    Man without this tip i really would start banging my head against the wall at some point

    by TheForce on Mar 4, 2009 at 6:21 pm

  202. what char is that beside vadar to the right and how do i unlock it

    by emped on May 23, 2009 at 3:09 pm

  203. this is the answer to aj’s question
    what it means is dont crouch or jump the whole time

    by jake on Jun 8, 2009 at 6:24 pm

  204. Answer to emped’s question the squares on the top are darth vader, the apprentice, yoda, and then a black box with a star in it. Yoda you buy form the ps store for like 5 bucks, and this site tells how to unlock the others.

    by Lizard on Jun 13, 2009 at 9:54 am

  205. WHAT IS THE ? SPOT BESIDE CREATE A PERSON

    by SUPERMAN791 on Jun 13, 2009 at 11:13 am

  206. its the random character button

    by Evan on Jun 18, 2009 at 6:31 pm

  207. if you buy all the characters in the game and then you go in the character select there will omly two characters lef to u lock.

    by Nichloas on Jun 26, 2009 at 7:44 pm

  208. to unlock kamikurimisu you have to use cassandra or miuugi.

    by Nichloas on Jun 26, 2009 at 7:51 pm

  209. is there a way to gte yoda on ps3?

    by dickamaru on Jul 2, 2009 at 8:41 pm

  210. to dickamaru if you can access the playstation store you can by yoda as an add-on for $4.99

    by Ginrikuzuma on Jul 5, 2009 at 5:45 pm

  211. Quote: “Unlockable Create-a-Soul Items / Weapons:

    * Unlock Advanced Equipment by achieving 20 achievements.
    * Unlock All weapons for a character by clearing Story mode with that character.
    * Unlock Animal Head Equipment by achieving 25 achievements.
    * Unlock Basic Equipment by achieving 5 achievements.
    * Unlock Intermediate Equipment by achieving 15 achievements.
    * Unlock Leviathan and Voodoo Equipment by achieving 30 achievements.
    * Unlock More Equipment by achieving 10 achievements.”

    Isn’t Create-A-Soul Soul Calibur III Exclusive? :O How’s it supposed to work here on IV? (Btw im playing the xbox 360 version if that makes a difference)

    by AngolFearFTW on Jul 10, 2009 at 2:22 pm

  212. Soul Calibur 4 is ridiculous in the sense the producers could be so lazy as to leave a BLANK character selection space. The game gets repetitive, and the “Tower of Lost Souls” gameplay on PS3 is stupid because even if you’re winning, after successfully dragging 3 characters through at least 5 opponents (while your health remains drained from hits, and the enemies have 50% more..) YOU STILL LOSE when the timer runs out, EVEN if you’re ahead. Go to hell soulcalibur. all i gotta say.

    by jamie pickle on Jul 15, 2009 at 8:11 pm

  213. …I love this game so much, I enjoy crating characters, customizing Nightmare to wear gold armor and boost his stats then kick my friends asses with him. Not much story, not much of anything but mindless ass kicking, some people care about that I just care about playing the game… Algol was pretty hard to beat in Tower of Souls but atleast he was more of a challenge than Nightterror, and the online play finaly helps me go against players who are acctually better than me!

    by Tf2 Sniper, Liberator on Jul 16, 2009 at 8:23 pm

  214. THIS GAME IS SO GOOD THAT I HAVEN’T EVEN BOUTHG ANY OTHER GAME AFTER THIS 1 ILL HIGHLY RECOMEND THE GAME TO ANY PLAYER…I STILL WOULD LIKE TO SEE A SOUL CALIBUR GAME LIKE AN RPG GAME IT WOULD BE 1 OF THE GREATEST GAMES IN THE WHOLE WORLD…

    by PROBLEMATIKO on Jul 25, 2009 at 6:08 am

  215. how do u get all the other nightmare helms besides the 1 u already have. ive seen them before one of them is helm misery from sc2

    by bormoor on Jul 28, 2009 at 2:01 pm

  217. Thank you guys so f*cking much! :D

    by Kim on Sep 19, 2009 at 9:40 am

  218. What’s the easiest way to get the Smasher and Phoenix achievements, I’m also on the 30th floor or somewhere around there where Zasamel or whatever is boss. I get through everyone, and still keep more that full health. Then he owns me. Any advice? Btw Yoshimitsu owns!!!

    by NamuNamuNamuNamu on Oct 1, 2009 at 4:05 am

  219. Oh and I don’t have online at the moment but is Vader possible to get on DLC and for how much?

    by NamuNamuNamuNamu on Oct 1, 2009 at 4:09 am

  220. YO MAN! THANKS! MY CUSTOM CHAR GOLIATH OWNEZ! HIS MACE IS LIKE AKILROTH’S AND THANKS AGAIN!
