While it was neither confirmed nor denied by Bandai Namco, it is assumed that all players who have purchased the title will still have access to the game.Soulcalibur Vis not a backward-compatible game for modern platforms, nor is it a part of Xbox Game Pass or PlayStation Plus. As such, the delisting only affects the native PS3/Xbox 360 users. Better hold on to those discs, archivists.
The most recent entry in the franchise,Soulcalibur VI, launched in 2018 on PS4, PC, and Xbox One.
