In a week that began with news that Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon has been pushed in to 2013, we now learn that Castlevania: Lords of Shadow – Mirror of Fate has met the same situation.
“Konami’s resurrection of the Castlevania series continues, as the breath-taking Castlevania: Lords of Shadows series heads to Nintendo 3DS in 2013 with Castlevania: Lords of Shadow – Mirror of Fate,” the publisher shared in a press release alongside Gamescom.
“Developed by Mercury Steam and acting as a prequel to the forthcoming Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2, the Nintendo 3DS game follows Trevor and Simon Belmont as they enter the shadow-laden castle of series villain, Dracula.”
As to the reasoning, that’s anyone’s guess. With strong Nintendo 3DS software still remaining throughout the rest of the current year, as well as the Wii U, Nintendo may be positioning key titles during early 2013 to ensure momentum is continued.
