"The warrior climbs to the summit of good and evil."
— Announcer

Tower of Glory: Most Holy Dichotomy (栄光の塔・双極の至聖所?) is Algol's stage that appears in Soulcalibur V, that is set somewhere in Astral Chaos. It consists of an octagonal platform with eight walls at each angle and eight sides for ring-outs.

Created by Algol, the arena overflows with both good and evil energy. Statues surround the arena, representing eight heroes who are associated with Soul Calibur and Soul Edge. The essences of both swords can be seen on the floor, entwined in silent conflict.

Profile[]

This glorious pinnacle can only be reached by those who have climbed the twin towers and survived many ordeals. This area is overflowing with both good and evil energies, and is adorned with statues representing the eight heroes associated with the two swords of legend.[1]

Designer's Comment[]

"This stage was designed to look like a powerful place worthy of welcoming the masters of Soul Calibur and Soul Edge, as well as any who are deemed to possess the spirit it of of a king"
— Yuzo Mizoguchi[1]

Trivia[]

  • The stage resembles the Conqueror's Coliseum stage, in terms of being a combat arena surrounded by statues.
  • Various statues encircle the ring and all of them carry "The Master" version weapons of well-known main characters of previous iterations:
    • Leixia's The Master with Pyrrha's The Master's shield
    • Aeon's The Master with Patroklos' The Master's shield
    • Hilde's The Master
    • Scythe (the only weapon not represented by The Master, instead it appears to be Kafziel)
    • Siegfried's The Master
    • Nightmare's The Master
    • Xiba's The Master
    • Astaroth's The Master
  • Ironically, neither Zasalamel nor anyone with his weapon or fighting style appear in Soulcalibur V. In addition, there is no axe and shield user due to Aeon switching to dual-axes for Soulcalibur V.
  • The statues around the ring are wearing variations of CaS pieces, such as the greaves from the honor boots without the boots, the snake armlets without the snakes, and the roman wrap without the front flap.
