Sequel
Project Soul (the development team of the Soul series) had always given the impression that Soulcalibur IV would be their last installment as the team was rumored to be disbanded; however, Katsuhiro Harada (producer of the Tekken series) said he would seriously consider a sequel if there was sufficient interest and informed fans that he is willing to accept opinions and requests on his Twitter; however, he asked the messages to be short and simple due to his poor English skills. While the possibility of a sequel was stronger than ever, Namco had not made a statement(s) to solidify their commitment for the game. Fans were encouraged to maintain support and show interest to secure development of Soulcalibur V. On May 11, 2011 Namco Bandai officially announced the new game, which was released for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 on January 31, 2012.
