==Development==
A sequel to Soulcalibur Astral Swords - A Dark Destiny was planned after its release in 2016. Development of the game officially started in 2017, where drafts of the story were being written. After the release of Soulcalibur VI taking place in a New Timeline, discussions on where and what timeline the game would take place in began. Development of the game was put on hold while remakes of the first three Astral Swords games were being made. It was then decided that the game would be a sequel to Soulcalibur Astral Swords: A Dark Destiny Retold, set after the story DLC for that game. The logo of the game has been released, although it is subject to change. The game is still currently in the early stages of development and is not due to be released for a few years, some time after the release of Soulcalibur Astral Swords: A Dark Destiny Retold.

==Trivia==
*During very early development of the game, the original story draft was to take place in the Original Timeline. This was until the announcement of Soulcalibur VI which started a New Timeline. Therefore, the original story was completely overhauled and changed to take place in the New Timeline.
**The early story draft would later be used for Soulcalibur Astral Swords: A Dark Destiny Retold story DLC.
*The original name of the game was Soulcalibur Astral Swords II: Dawn of Darkness. It would have kept this name if the game was still set in the Original Timeline.
*Although set in the New Timeline, the game is a sequel to events that happened in Soulcalibur Astral Swords: A Dark Destiny Retold but also takes place after the events of Soulcalibur VI.
**This is due to the fact that the story will primarily focus on Stellar from the Original Timeline who is transported to the New Timeline at the end of A Dark Destiny Remake story DLC.
**This also makes the game a standalone sequel to the movie Soulcalibur: Cosmic Catalyst which featured Stellar right after she was transported to the New Timeline.
