scarey stuff, he looks like he maybe linked to the swords (red arm soul edge, blue arm soul caliber and the pictures with the soul caliber styled shield thing)

the pic of the dude sitting on the throne is exactly like a Kain's artwork from a while ago. I bet they based this artwork on that picture.

Everyone draws barbarian/warrior/etc. kings sitting like that. Krauser from KOF sits like that, Conan from Age of Conan sits like that, etc. Seriously, you guys are reading into the way he sits too much.

Yes, he is the last boss from what I know. He is the one holding that handle with the eye in the trailer. Some Remnant of the Soul Edge?

He does look badass. hopefully he is unlockable. (probably will be)

Wait, Ubisoft sent these screens to you guys? I thought Namco was publishing the game as well.

Edit: I just Wiki'd and found that Ubisoft is publishing it in Europe.

He's so veiny, wouldn't a minor cut cause him to bleed to death in like 10 seconds? Lol! http://images.gamersyde.com/gallery/public/8871/12...

By the way, where the hell is the self shadowing in this game??

Looks too much like a Mortal Kombat character.

Hehe, he does look like Raiden & King Theoden (LOTR, while corrupt) had a baby and gave him steroids from birth.
