How to Unlock Inferno

  • Beat Chronicle of Souls Episode 19

In order to unlock Inferno in Soul Calibur 6 you need to play through the Chronicle of Souls mode until you reach episode 19. Complete episode 19 and you will unlock Inferno, as well as a gallery for the episode that can be viewed in the Museum mode. It’s unknown if Inferno is the only character that you can unlock in Soul Calibur 6, but given how the character select screen looks when you first play the game, most people assume there are more characters to be unlocked.

While Inferno is mostly a character who plays like Nightmare, he does have a few unique attacks all his own. It will be unlikely to see Inferno played in a competitive setting, as he’s already been banned from all official Bandai Namco tournaments, and cannot be played online, but if you’re just playing around with friends, Inferno is a fun addition to the Soul Calibur 6 cast.
