Following in the bloody footprints of Netflix’s hit Castlevania series, the first trailer for developer Dynamighty’s Castlevania: Nocturne has been released.
The game is a singleplayer narrative based in the Castlevania universe. The player takes control of Gabriel Belmont, a vampire hunter who is struggling to protect the world from an ancient evil. The trailer showcases some of the gorgeous, yet gruesome environments featured in the game, along with a brief glimpse of some of the horrific enemies awaiting Belmont. It also provides a tantalizing glimpse of the game’s intense combat system.
Players will have the opportunity to fight their way through waves of varied and powerful enemies, using an array of weapons, including a whip, guns, and magic. The game also features a deep exploration system where players can explore various levels and collect useful items and upgrades.
Players will also be able to upgrade their protagonist and access powerful abilities and items in order to help them complete challenges and defeat powerful bosses. The game’s music is provided by the critically acclaimed musician Andrew Hulshult, and it promises to be an intense, atmospheric audio treat.
Nocturne appears to be a gothic, gritty and visually stunning new addition to the Castlevania franchise. Fans eager to take up the role of Belmont and battle their way through ancient and terrible locales can look forward to journey when the game releases in 2021.
