Bandai Namco’s classic video game will be available in casinos later this year.

NORTH AMERICA–Bandai Namco Entertainment has tapped GameCo to develop a new skill-based gambling machine based on the fighting game “Soulcalibur II.”

Richmond Management Group brokered the deal on behalf of GameCo.

The new casino game will feature a faster-paced take on the classic 3D fighting experience found in the classic video game while also maintaining the core gameplay elements of the weapon-based fighting franchise.

GameCo’s “Soulcalibur” video game gambling machine is slated to debut in casinos in late 2017.
