Considering the look of the character bracket menu, I'd say we will get three more characters. If you look at how characters have ben placed, the shape of the bracket seems to be forming a heart. Three more character slots are needed to complete a full heart.

I doubt Jubei will show up as a playable character, but he will probably show up as a final boss character.

We will likely get at least one more character from Xblaze

One more from Variable Heart

and one more secret character that will be a wild card.

Sadly there are at least two interesting characters from Mai's story that should be made characters. That is Taro and Shiori. As Kofash mentioned though, it is possible from Mei Fang to muscle in and steal a spot from both of these... and THAT would be a tragedy. I say tragedy because so far Mei Fang hasn't shown a fighting style that would be new and refreshing while the previous mentioned two have.

The character from Xblaze will likely be a villain character and NOT the main male protagonist (seeing as his design was made into that of a generic male protagonist that don't stick out all that much,)

The wild card is likely going to be a newly created character that will help tie togheter the plot in some way.

Well, this is just a qualified guess so don't take it as anything other than that.
