XBA: " Castlevania: Lords of Shadow was something of an unexpected gem. A barnstorming opening chapter in a re-imagining of the Castlevania series, it excelled in providing a deep and varied combat system, some truly jaw-dropping vistas and a narrative that lived long in the memory, thanks in no small part to a stunning cliffhanger of an ending. Three or so years later in the real world, and in Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2, Gabriel Belmont has been stewing in his castle for centuries following the events of the first game and its ensuing spin-off, Mirror of Fate. With developer MercurySteam declaring that Lords of Shadow 2 is the final chapter in the series, our expectations going into the sequel are sky-high."
