Assassin's Creed sneaks into SoulCalibur V

come on man!..i've got a game preordered already and your making it hard for me to choose now..no fair lol!

Ezio is too cool to be tampered with,,no added effects needed

They should've put Ezio in MK

Sweeeeet

So it's Ezio with random glowing effects added to all his attacks? Ezio totally doesn't need that. Seems rather degrading for the AC franchise...

has sephiroth or cloud been in any soul calibur games? cuz that would be cool

Cool. Introduce any 'video-game' character (so long as its not Pikachu) :lol: Imo SC series became lame-ass when it felt it needed to introduce Star Wars licenced material into the series (ie.SCIV). Imo out of series licensing is totally unnecessary in SC.

Slick moves Ezio:):)

So the Soul Caliibur/ Edge are Pieces of Eden?

Interesting idea but I didn't like it :S

Gotta love dem guest characters!

Now that's what makes a fighting game sell so well. A Definite buy!

Interesting Ezio in Soulcalibur V well great work Namco! Buying your game! :D

Fine, Namco, fine!!! Dammit just go ahead take my money (again), lol. Hell at least I get a break between gettin' this & Tekken Hybrid. :P

More guest characters please!!!

Hope to see a theme or a remix theme of one of his known themes..also a dedicated stage perhaps Rome...God, Ezio in the game makes the possiblites endless :). Nice pick..

Ezio is awesome, but Dampierre being preorder sucks. This preorder bs has to stop, let's hope the retail market falls soon.

Could be neat...I guess......

Time to undress the ladies in the character editor...

interesting very interesting

EZIO: Come To Daddy.........

WOW.......great to see EZIO in another setting!!!!!!!

all we need now is a Soul Calibur whose guest character is Oghren from Dragon Age.

@Realacide Grey Fox in Soul Calibur? The thought makes me drool...

Oh wow i didnt know that Soul Calibur 5 wuz gonna b coming out so soon. I thought i would come out in maybe as early as March. Aight well i guess i'll preorder this as soon as i can.

I love the guest character idea in Soul Caliber. An idea for a guest that I have had for a while would be the inclusion of Cyborg Raiden or Grey Fox from MGS. And I know I'm NOT the only one!!

Soul Calibur could use a MK crossover. I like the fact that Ezio is for 360 & PS3 but I want there to be a PS3 only & 360 only guy also. Maybe Cole MacGrath or something for PS3. I love how Soul Calibur shows it's personality by not taking itself too seriously & having fun with the characters & crossovers.

That's... actually pretty cool.

@rpgfandylan1990 soul calibur: boken destiny on psp. :)

I'll definitely get it. I still have Soul Calibur IV will Yoda in the game. lol!! I get to play Maxi and Kilik once again.

I'm sure they would have added Kratos if Mortal Kombat didn't already do it. Jus' sayin'.

One of my favorite things about this series is the cool guest fighter additions.

When the hell was Kratos in a Soul Calibur game?

hurray! I can assassinate that loser character!

I don't really care about the logic. I think he'll be a fun addition. :D

Well Kratos actually makes sense.

I know it's not a bad thing that we're gettng Ezio, but it just seems like an attempt (a good one) to cash in on AC fans. There aren't too many other modern characters known to most gamers that fit the role so well though.

that's it. getting this. Not like AC at all, but ezio fits the role perfectly for this game! 8D

That announcer also plays the voice of Xemnas from Kingdom Hearts 2. Am I the only one who noticed that?

This news is 4 days old, Gamespot.

If send Namco a video of me crying do you think they'd make a PC version? lol.

cool i'm a fan of assassin's creed but not a fan of soul cailber.

Wasn't going to get this, but now I might.

@otanikun SC5 and AC2 take place under a century from one another... And its Soulcalibur. Easily one of the least plausible series I can think of.

They should make a PC version so we can use texmod to take the textures for ezio in this game and put them in ac2

Soul calibur 5 takes place in the 17th century

But how are you going to explain his being in the game? Considering he's from an old old time period; either way I'm both happy he's in the game and not happy. I was hoping that this SoulCalibur would just be that, SoulCalibur and not include guest characters that in all honesty have no reason being there since they don't fit in the main story whatsoever. But he's a good fit, seeing as his bevy of weapons will benefit the player.

Im not at all intrested in SCV...

"It would be nice to see a PC version. Oh, and hopefully there will be a Tales cameo. I'd love to see Yuri in a Soul Calibur game." It's too bad Namco Bandai has so little faith in the Tales series outside of Japan that we only get one of every four installments. Even though it's an in-house franchise... But I agree that Ezio makes more sense than the last round of "guests" we had...particularly Scheherazade and Angol Fear. Is Ezio gonna have a unique moveset, or just be a model swap of an existing character like those other guests were?

Ezio is going to follow his creed for a new assassination!
