A number of images erroneously posted on the official PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale website appear to suggest two previously unknown characters will be playable in the upcoming PS3 and PS Vita brawler.

The images show LittleBigPlanet's Sackboy, who was accidentally included in the game's character roster; and Raiden from Hideo Kojima's Metal Gear Solid series, who was featured in an "ultimate match-ups" ad.

In the screenshot that features Raiden, several other characters that are yet to be officially revealed are visible, including Nariko from Heavenly Sword, Ratchet and Clank, Jin and Kazuya from Tekken, and Ryu Hyabuza from the Ninja Gaiden franchise.

SuperBot Entertainment is expected to officially unveil new characters at next week's Gamescom conference. Who are you hoping to see?
