Is Assassin's Creed's Eizo going to be a surprise guest star in Namco Bandai's Soul Calibur V? According to a leaked character select screenshot, that seems to be the case.

An anonymous source sent the off-screen snap to Joystiq, who reports its supposedly captured from a beta version of the game, though there's no confirmation yet whether this is real or a elaborate fake.

It wouldn't be the first time Namco's series has gained high-profile guest stars - the franchise has seen appearances by Nintendo's Link, Yoda and Darth Vader in the past, so this isn't entirely impossible.
