THE BUZZ: An image has appeared online which appears to show Ezio from Assassin’s Creed as a playable character in Soul Calibur V. Could this signal a guest appearance for the assassin?

The image, courtesy of Joystiq, is said to be from a beta version of the game taken at a recent fighting game tournament and shows the character select screen with Ezio Auditore de Firenze highlighted.

EGM’s TAKE: There has been no official conformation of the character, and the legitimacy of the photo is still in question, but if it is true then expect him to either be a pre-order bonus or exclusive to one platform.
