The 2.10 patch update for SoulCalibur VI is now available.
The changes seem to address many oddities for hit boxes of attacks that seem to miss when they shouldn’t be. A notable fun change is the ability to break your own equipment while doing Soul Charge by holding A for upper, B for mid, and K for lower clothing.
Check out all of the official notes here below.
