Castlevania: Order of Shadows coming exclusively to mobile
Two Castlevania announcements in one day? Konami's getting serious
Continuing its commitment to break into the mobile gaming space (as reported this morning from Leipzig's Games Convention), Konami has announced a second – and, crucially, original – Castlevania title (the first being Aria of Sorrow, due in December).
Designed exclusively for the mobile platform in collaboration with Koji Igarashi, the franchise's daddy, the game promises a fresh vampire-hunting adventure featuring an all-new mechanic, storyline features and original music.
We've been told to expect updated abilities and spells, unique enemies and, er, full-screen particle effects as Konami continues its mission to radically shake up mobile games.
We'll soon know how well that quest is likely to fare – Order of the Shadows will be available on all major carriers from September 18th.
