Forums - Nintendo - Rumor: Castlevania: Mirror of Faith in the works for 3DS

Nintendo Everything

Update: NeoGAF member “Santiako” is adding more details to the rumor. Mirror of Faith features 2D gameplay similar to what was produced on the DS. However, Mercury Steam is making the game rather than Konami. Konami will still be publishing.

It seems that Konami will be announcing Castlevania: Mirror of Faith, a new 3DS title, at this year’s E3. The news apparently comes from the company’s appointment schedule for the event.

Gameplay information is not yet available. However, Castlevania: Lords of Shadow producer David Cox and director/writer Enric Álvarez are supposedly working on Mirror of Faith.

Take this with a grain of salt for now. It would certainly make sense to bring a new Castlevania to the 3DS though.

Nice, 3DS keeps getting better and better



Please be true. Please be true. Please be true. >_<

Yes, I'm pretty bummed that Iga isn't working on it, but at this point it's been 4 years since my last 2D Castlevania fix, and we needs it. Precious...

This also works with RawMeatCowboy's (GoNintendo) tweet that a prominent 3rd party title is coming to the 3DS for E3. It's all coming together...



That is the kind of game that will make me buy a 3DS.

Igarashi does not need to be involved, the basis of Metroidvania is already stabilished.

I just hope it follows that base, while adding a few details, like always. Can't wait. Unless a major tragedy happens, this is another must-buy.

Yeah, pretty much. Will keep an eye out for this, but I'm skeptical. Where the hell is Igarashi?!

Yeah, he produced Leedmees. But I think it came out last year. So WTF!!!!!!!



I don't mind at all a new developer. Anyone is replaceble - rant: Gosh, release a new Mother game, Nintendo, who cares if Shigesato Itoi is not around.

I just hope they respect the "classics" (that aren't the classics) and don't put cinematics, or QTEs or things like that.
