You are thinking too much into it.
People who say its a new generation or a different set of characters have it right. But that is always a risky path as Soul Calibur V showed. It could also just be a new IP of fighting game.
It will not be a SFxT series, unless that title is sucessful and Capcom is up for that. SFxT wasnt that well received... so, i dunno. I would much rather capcom did a new set of Capcom vs SNK.
Actually, i get quite excited just thinking about Capcom vs SNK 3 with SFV's engine and SvC Chaos 2 on the KoFXIV engine.
