Possible First Screenshot of Soul Calibur V

When Soul Calibur V was announced back in early May, we were left without much to go on. The only footage released was a cinematic teaser trailer, and gameplay details since the announcement have been very light. This will all undoubtedly be addressed at E3 in just a few short days, but today we get an early, albeit minor peek at the game in the form of a screenshot.

In the latest issue of EGMi an upcoming EGM cover story is teased, and in the tease is a look at what could be the first in-game screenshot of Soul Calibur V we've seen so far. It's hard to tell whether this is a battle shot or a cutscene, but what is clear is that it shows off newcomer Pyrrha and what appears to be Mitsurugi staring each other down.

EGM's Soul Calibur V coverage will appear in the next issue of EGM, due out June 14. For a larger image, see below.
