As of the time of writing, the game has a rating of around 4.24 with 275 users who submitted their feedback. 70% of the ratings are 5-stars and 12% of them are 1-star. Judging by the lack of 3 or 2-stars, it seems that modern players either love it or hate it with little in between.

Soulcalibur: Broken Destiny originally came out for the PSP in 2009. While it plays similar to Soulcalibur IV, the target audience is for beginners and novice players. Kratos of God of War appeared as a new character to the Soulcalibur series. Broken Destiny also introduced original character Dampierre. The original PSP version also enjoyed generally favorable reviews. Unlike the main Soulcalibur games, Broken Destiny does have have a story or online PvP.

This is an enhanced version of the original PSP game with new features. These features seem to focus more on character creation, since you can rewind, quick save, and use custom video filters. The description for the game also notes that Bandai Namco changed certain conditions for unlocking Creation mode parts and that there are more parts or options than in Soulcalibur IV.

Soulcalibur: Broken Destiny is available as a digital download on the PS4 and the PS5.
