It is the second spin-off title in the Soul series. Chronologically, it takes place right after Soulcalibur V due to storyline and setting of the game.

The game focuses on Michael Alexander and Gabriel Alexander, Patroklos's and Pyrrha's lost brothers, which they plan to destroy Nightmare for good to not only to save the world, but to destroy Michael's visions of the future. It is also the first game to have anime cutscenes.

Gameplay
The game's gameplay is a mix of Soul Calibur lV and V. Players start their soul gauges on level 2 and level up by attacking the opponet. They have to be careful, if they guard, their soul gauge will decrease. Also, if players reach their soul gauge by 5 (Maximum), they will enter Critical Finish only if the opponet enters soul crush. Critical Edge will be available any time from levels 1 to 4 in the game, but will decrease their level by 1. Mostly, the game's gamplay is from Soul Calibur V.
