How to unlock the Glory Beckons achievement in SOULCALIBUR VI - Definitive Guide

Thank you to Kysol for the method needed to unlock Legendary difficulty. I had trouble fighting the AI on Very Hard difficulty and coming out of it with a win. I found that the easiest way to accomplish this is to complete Chronicles of the Soul (specifically, level 19 Thanks to VveniVvidiVvici). This will unlock the character Inferno. He is the character in the fourth row, second column. He wields Soul Edge and is nigh unstoppable. His forward + Y attack can be spammed for easy victories even against the hardest AI. Just an idea for those who suck at fighting games (like I do).

I've beaten Arcade once, got a Gold medal and I have Inferno. Perhaps the gold medal is the requirement for unlocking Inferno?

I did some more research and it looks like VveniVvidiVvici is correct. I apologise for the confusion and will edit the solution. It looks like you have to complete Chronicle of Soul level 19 to unlock him.

Spamming forward + Y is good but you must have the common sense to block, because the computer does block a lot and then counter attack

This must be anecdotal advice because I've beaten arcade mode twice now, once on easy and once on normal, and I don't have this character.

Just to add on, like RPG said, it should only take around 9 minutes to beat the mode like this and if you haven't gotten "Keep Your Eye on the Gold" Achievement, this is a great way to get them both at once!

Thanks. This made it super easy, that forward+Y move is very overpowered, no wonder you can't play Inferno normally. Got a gold medal, first go.

Feel dirty having to button bash, but it works. Completed in 5 minutes 42 seconds

That worked great, thanks. That drill attack! Only thing I would add is that if the opponent gets the upper hand, then spamming B will often knock them back/down and give you an opening to resume forward + Y.

I found holding forward while button mashing X (horizontal attack) worked much better. The computer kept sidestepping the forward+Y, but the forward+X mashing just wrecked them.

Can’t be overstated how easy this was with Inferno, and I also managed to get the gold medal and last few ring outs and perfects I needed for some other achievements. I found button bashing X was better for me, as the CPU kept side stepping the drill but all the same, it’s just too easy like this. Thank you.

Thanks, playing as Inferno made this trivial. Got it in around 5 minutes.

Took me a minute to realize that the Y attack combo was the X button. Super confusing about this game. That being said, great tip! I got it in 06'03"48

Excellent advice on picking Inferno! I managed to beat Very Hard in 9m 01s using him. Where possible take advantage of the push back when the computer does block and do a DownForward + Y uppercut attack to ring them out. Soul charge your attacks too when the gauge fills :)

I ended up doing it in 15'37"49, no continues, with my Custom VixyNyan (Seong Mi-na) character instead, I mixed forward+YB, back+RT and other long distance moves music http://meow.vixynyan.com/sc6arcadeveryhard153749.jpg

To unlock Legendary difficulty in Arcade mode, you just have to beat Very Hard in Arcade mode. No need to place, completion is enough.

Sometimes achievements solutions need to be long. Sometimes they don't.
This qualifies as the latter smile

If you are rather a so so player or simply not good at fighting games, then picking INFERNO is the right choice for you!

Today I had play on VERY HARD with Inferno. I did not practice, look on the move set or whatever. What I did notice is: his movesets are crazy!

Everything makes a lot of damage, easy to execute, and fast. Playing for the first time I got like 6'41' and for the the 2nd time I got like 7'53".

Step #1: Unlock Inferno character (clear every story mode for charactes)
Step#2: Learn just few moves with this guy.
I show them in the begining of the video:
- cn_right+cn_Ycn_Ycn_Ycn_Y
(this one I read in the solution here so I do not want to take any credits for using this move, ok?)
- cn_right+cn_Xcn_Xcn_Xcn_X
- cn_right+cn_X+cn_Ycn_Ycn_Y

Notice that some characters will put up a fight, but no need to worry. Just try again to hit them with whatever move (forward Y,Y,Y,Y, or simple cn_Ycn_Ycn_Y).

Give it a try on the VERY HARD, so you can get 2 achievements (unlock the legend achievement and Keep Your Eye on the Gold) in 1 play, because it is possible! (^_^)

Again - I did not train for it, no tactics, strategy, just simple "play" and using few simple moves.
Good luck with the achievements!

To unlock this difficulty, you need to complete the Arcade at the Very High difficulty level) It’s easy to do: use the block more often)

Very easy to do playing as Inferno
Just spam forward attack + L1 (it removes 70-80% of health at a time) and R2
At the same time you can get a trophy for gold and perfects

It happens that Inferno often misses with this attack... I spammed them stupidly B, B, B, B, B, B to the point of insanity.
