Castlevania: Lords of Shadow

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 to be Announced at E3?

A sequel to Konami and MercurySteam's Castlevania: Lords of Shadow will be announced at E3, according to the latest rumours.

Released back in 2010, the original Lords of Shadow picked up plenty of praise for it’s action-adventure, whiptastic stylings. It was good, prompting our very own Rich to say in sister site X360A's review that Lords of Shadow “is a superlative start for Castlevania on current-gen consoles and we only hope that developer MercurySteam has more in the pipeline.” Looks like he may be in luck.

The report comes from a source that has been right on a number of occassions in the past, so the rumours have some weight. Set your sights for E3, folks.

I wish they would just discount the dlc already....ten dollars for each is too much!

Didnt like the story in the first. But the gameplay was great. Hopefully if this get announced it will be able to get both things right.

I must be the only person not ecstatic over this announcement. Making the mistake of buying the first one is all the reason I need to steer clear of this monotonous sequel.

I'd rather they go back to their 2D roots again to be honest but I'm still happy to hear this.

Oh I hope they do, just don't do it map wise for the missions. Make it open world like the gows, travel. Not just start mission end mission next. Go from place to place explore....That's what I want to see.

What can they do with the ending of the first game? Gabriel will whip some gangster thug vampire in modern day?

Werewolved that wear bling bling and shoot with guns?

Special guest appearance of Patterson and Jacob from Twilight?

Story aside, Lord of Shadow was a disgrace to the Castlevania franchise. They should've called it what it really was...God of War 2.5.
