Secret Apprentice – Secret Appearance? + 15 New Screenshots
June 10, 2008
This is pretty cool, The Force Unleashed Secret Apprentice will be making a not so secret appearance in the upcoming Soulcalibur IV for the PS3 and the upcoming Xbox360. I knew that Yoda and Darth Vader were making an appearance in the game but I had no idea that they would be throwing in the Secret Apprentice, which is pretty cool. The game is set to debut on July 29th, 2008.
In addition to this post, 15 new screenshots for the PS3 have been made available. Check them out at the end of the post.
