Soulcalibur[]
A render of Apocalypse from Soulcalibur
Profile: Apocalypse is the name of Rock's immense battle ax.
Rock had to battle wild beasts from time to time in order to protect himself and his adopted son Bangoo. Rock wore fur out of respect for the courageous beasts that shared the wilderness with him.
The sound of Apocalypse slashing through the air is a tell-tale sign of Rock engaged in a life-or-death struggle.
Other Games[]
Although Apocalypse doesn't appear in any other game after Soulcalibur, it is mentioned in Rock's profile in Soulcalibur III and Soulcalibur IV.
In Soulcalibur III, it was revealed that that Apocalypse was destroyed when Rock rescued Bangoo after he was kidnapped by Fygul Cestemus.[1] His Soulcalibur IV profile states that he would recast the damaged weapon to create two giant maces: Onslaught and another mace that was given to Bangoo.[2]
