Soul Calibur 6: 10 Guest Characters Namco Must Consider

3. Spider-Man

Spawn managed to make an appearance on the Xbox version of Soul Calibur 2; Why not Spidey?

Because of his exclusivity in Insomniac Games' PS4 Spider-Man game, Spidey himself could be the PlayStation-exclusive character. Sony obviously hold the rights to the character, which makes him the perfect choice, and a great reason for PS4 players to pick up the game.

Spidey has shown on several occasions that he's perfect for fighting games. His numerous playable roles in the Marvel vs. Capcom series have shown this, although including him in Soul Calibur would involve a heavier focus on his close combat skills. Luckily for Spider-Man, he's got that in spades.

Combos with Spider-Man should feel quick and fluid, with occasional use of webbing and swinging to keep his opponents on his toes. He should also feel much quicker than other characters, almost playing similarly to Tira. Shattered Dimensions showed that Spider-Man regularly uses his webbing to create weapons, which could tie into his playing style considerably.

Considering his upcoming role in Homecoming, Spider-Man's popularity has never been higher. This makes perfect sense for both Soul Calibur and Spider-Man.
