Not many people had hope for the release of Castlevania: Lords of Shadow, but the engaging story and slick combat system won both series fans and curious onlookers over in 2010. It warranted a sequel, and one of the first images of Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 has been leaked.
MercurySteam and Konami have shown little of this dark fantasy title, but the below image gives a small glimpse at both the scope and beauty of this second outing. Gabriel Belmont returns as the main man of the story, and while it may look similar to the previous game, the finale of Lords of Shadow leads us to believe that this could be an entirely different experience.
There’s no hard date yet, but look for Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 sometime in 2013.
