Castlevania: Harmony of Despair E3 Gameplay Trailer
Thursday, June 17th, 2010Project: DUST E3 Trailer
Tuesday, June 15th, 2010
I can’t believe a) that’s all in-game footage and b) this game is for the Xbox Live Arcade and the PlayStation Network. I like it, seems to be a little bit Populus, a little bit Black and White, maybe even a little Doshin the Giant. Whatever it is, it looks amazing. And it’s being developed by Éric Chahi.
Castlevania Harmony of Despair at E3
Monday, June 14th, 2010
Castlevania Harmony of Despair, a new 2D Castlevania produced by Koji Igarashi (Symphony of the Night, Harmony of Dissonance) is on display at E3. The game is reportedly in hi-definition, features six-player multiplayer and is for Xbox Live Arcade. Awesome. Also, Harmony of Despair features multiple classic Castlevania characters such as Alucard and Soma Cruz, which is even cooler.
The game will be released next month (amazingly awesome) during Microsoft’s “Summer of Arcade”.
Check below for an actual screenshot, it looks amazing. I love pixel art.
