All 25 Fighters, Ranked
Soulcalibur II keeps the full home-console roster: eighteen returning fighters, the newcomer Necrid, the three guest characters and the unlockable bonus trio. The top tier is built around range, safety and comeback power, led by Ivy and Kilik; the middle tier rewards matchup knowledge, while the bottom tier needs far more work to keep pace.

Guest and Bonus Fighters, Ranked
Six fighters sit outside the standard roster: the console-exclusive guests Link, Heihachi Mishima and Spawn, plus the unlockable trio Assassin, Berserker and Lizardman. Link is the most complete of the group, Heihachi brings Tekken-style pressure, and the bonus fighters trade originality for borrowed movesets.
