According to the Soul Calibur Wiki, the aforementioned antagonist has been given the nickname of the "Azure Nightmare" in the game, fitting for someone whose mere appearance can strike fear and awe into those who will see him.

As for the newcomers, developers have already confirmed at least one of them will be Grøh.

As seen in the Soul Calibur Wiki, Grøh is the first Nordic character to be depicted in the series, and it seems that developers are doing what they can to make him stand out from the rest of the roster.

In battle, Grøh uses a double-saber, and what is particularly notable about it is that it can be separated into two smaller weapons if the player desires. On top of that, he can also use shockwave attacks and also possesses the power of teleportation.

For those fans curious to see how Grøh and the new Nightmare will look like inside "SoulCalibur VI," they can check out a new gameplay video posted by "Giuseppe's Gaming."
