Mitsurugi's stage in Soulcalibur, and based on the real-life Siege of Takamatsu, orchestrated by Toyotomi Hideyoshi after he constructed a 3-kilometer bank around it in order to stop the flow of water and produce a flooding. Mitsurugi, as a trusted mercenary on the base of Mori's Murakami Navy, was assigned the defense of the castle during the conflict. The stage consists on a wooden raft amidst battle, with the castle as background and flaming arrows constantly flying around.
Winter Variation
The water in the winter variation has instead frozen into solid ice and the castle has been covered in snow, which constantly falls during the fight.
Trivia
- A rearrangement of this stage theme "Duelists" was used in Soulcalibur VI E3 announcement trailer. The rearrangement is available in-game for the first time alongside the release of Season Pass 2 DLC 11 Setsuka, where it plays in Mitsurugi Side Story 5 during his decisive duel with Shugen Kokonoe. Notably, this is the only time the theme is played in-game and as of currently, it cannot be selected for normal battles.
