Various reports from last week suggest that will debut 5 at this year's E3 show in May, though they have refused to confirm or deny any such speculation, despite rumours suggesting a launch on the by the end of the year. Much conjecture surrounded the future of the series after the disappointment, both critically and commercially, that was Tekken 4, however it appears that Soul Calibur isn't the only beat 'em up the Japanese firm are pinning their hopes on.

Regardless, with E3 fast approaching we should know soon enough. Until then, then.
