Castlevania: Lords Of Shadow now available
The new Castlevania: Lords Of Shadow game is now in stores for North America
Konami today announced that Castlevania: Lords of Shadow is now available for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. The newest title in the successful franchise is developed by Madrid-based Mercury Steam in association with legendary Kojima Productions studio.
"Castlevania: Lords of Shadow takes an innovative turn in the Castlevania series, while still staying true to the franchise," said Shinji Hirano, President of Konami Americas. "Gamers will be impressed with a breath-taking adventure title that immerses players into a picturesque and dark cinematic experience. Combining those beautiful visuals with the help of Kojima Productions, has delivered the gripping Castlevania game that fans both old and new will come to love."
In Castlevania: Lords of Shadow players take on the role of Gabriel Belmont, voiced by Robert Carlyle, the hero of the game and part of the legendary Belmont clan from Castlevania lore. Gabriel is a member of the Brotherhood of Light, an elite group of holy knights who protect and defend the innocent against the supernatural. His beloved wife was brutally murdered by the evil forces of darkness and her soul trapped for eternity. Neither living nor dead she realizes the horrific truth of what is at stake and guides her husband to his destiny - and hopefully salvation for the world. Gabriel must track down the mysterious Lords of Shadow in order to unite the pieces of a relic called "The God Mask" that can purify the world and has the power to bring the dead back to life. Thus, Gabriel must travel the destroyed world, defeating the evil tyrants in order to use their powers to bring balance back to the world.
Castevania: Lords of Shadow is rated "M" for mature by the ESRB and is now available for purchase at retailers nationwide for an MSRP of $59.99 for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. Free demos are also available to download now on both platforms.
