Japanese websites have actually been reporting it's William Zeppeli that was announced, not Caesar Zeppeli.
First of thanks for the comment Ryan. If you can provide the sites stating this I would appreciate it and make the appropriate changes. Meanwhile, I have done some digging and can not find anything about William being announced personally. It seems the translation about William is that Jonathan is using his signature move (Zoom Punch) and that Caesar is his grandson, but nothing about him personally being in the game. Again thanks for the comment.
No problem! Let me find you a few links! I'm glad to see JoJo finally getting some mainstream attention it so rightfully deserves, so it's nice to see this article!
As far as the information, there's no real confirmation one way or the other yet. Most Japanese sites that have posted the news are saying William, while the English websites are reporting Caesar. Let me go grab so info for you!
Here's an example of a link announcing William:

Well my translator is saying its referencing Will who taught Jojo the Zoom punch not that he is in the game.
I personally doubt that the USA will ever seen this game localized :( I might cosplay as Jotaro Kujo for San Japan sinister six! (Part 6 stone ocean jotaro)
