Just played this, it's really bad. Seriously, just play any other soul calibur game. It's riddled with F2P bullshit, single player only, the load times are fucking ridiculous and they're everywhere. There's lots of menu navigation and a loading screen after every one. I swear this game is 60% loading screens, 30% menu navigation and 10% actual gameplay. And the gameplay is basically SC5 but simplified.

Jesus christ, is there anything left?
Namco already got my money when I bought SC5 and a bunch of DLC for it, and a fighting game without multiplayer is just bullshit.

Basically, you fill up a bar by attacking the opponent and when it's full you press R1 and you do a powerful attack. There's also a rock, paper, scissors-esque system. Each weapon has one or two elements out of three, and each element is weak to one and strong against another. And all the characters' movesets seem identical to the ones in SC5.
