RUMOR: Leaked Photo Reveals Ezio Auditore and Unnamed New Character for Soul Calibur 5

Another day, another rumor. This time, from Soul Calibur 5. An unnamed man has apparently snapped this picture from a beta version of the upcoming game, revealing with it a new, unnamed character, as well as Ubisoft’s elusive assassin, Ezio Auditore, as the game’s secret guest character.

There’s very little information surrounding this rumor – only the anonymous photograph – so take it with a grain of salt. However, Soul Calibur has a history of guest stars appearing in their games, from Nintendo’s Link to Star War’s Yoda and Darth Vader, and Ezio certainly fits the game’s theme quite nicely, so it’s not quite the stretch some might imagine.  Likewise, adding to the authenticity is the unnamed character in the top row of the character select menu, beside Ezio himself.

It seems safe to say if this mysterious man gets revealed sometime within the future, that will confirm the authenticity of this rumor.
