About the ending:
...wat?
I get where they are PROBABLY going with this. Dracul, father of Dracula.
But then, where do the other Belmont come from? I guess, Mirror of Fate?

im a fucking castlevania fan but LOS was fucking shit.the combat was fucking shit, the soundtrack was fucking shit,the story was fucking shit. having said that i really want a good castlevania, i hope LOS 2 to be at least as good as Lament of innocence.
People seem to have forgotten that Gabriel isn't truly a Belmont. He is supposed to be a Cronqvist according to all the rumors IN the game from the Order/Brotherhood. It's a name he was using, because he liked the mountains. We still have to find out if the Trevor and Simon Belmont are going to be related to him in the Mirror of Fate game. Also, remember that he's started calling himself the Dragon, since the first DLC....Reverie¿
Lament of Innocence and Curse of Darkness is still the best 3D castlevania game ever.
doubt it'll manage to catch the spirit, but it'll be a good game nevertheless.

Yeah... No. I'm still waiting for a Castlevania game, not this shit series that just had the name pasted over it's original title "Lords of Shadow". Just like Silent Hill 4: The Room wasn't meant to be a Silent Hill, LoS was not meant to be a Castlevania game. The name was just slapped on it to sell it.
I really enjoyed the first game, very happy a sequel is coming! Just wish konami would start releasing their titles on pc too.
Loved the first game, but it pissed me off that they locked Gabriel's transformation into the DLC, which I heard wasn't very good.
I youtubed it yesterday and also found that these kind of imporatant story element sin the DLC are told in an animated illustration/graphic novel style rather than cut scenes like the main game.
I hope they do something to bridge the gap between teh 2 main releases, since I've no intention of ever gettign the DLC.

Here's all you need to know about his fall from grace and transformation into Dracula. "I'm really angry and am going to kill all these clearly evil monsters who want to destroy the world. Well I guess I'm evil now"
Al...? Al, is that you...?
I have to say that I love the aesthetics of this reboot, Gameplay of War be damned. Grr... I hate admitting defeat, but I may have to get this.

Okay, big spoiler here:
He's not Dracula, he's Dracul.
As in Vlad the Second, father of Vlad the Third (A.K.A. Vlad The Impaler)
Dracula means "Son of the Dragon".

Looking forward to it. I hope you play as Gabriel and not the white haired swordsman, because I love Gabriels weapon.
I never played a Castlevania game before this one, and I can understand if it's not really one other than in name really. But I quite enjoyed it. I liked the environments and I thorougly enjoyed the combat. I had no problems using the high lvl combos to great effect. I'll probably get this toó.
That sure looked like Alucard at the end. Or maybe Sephiroth. So difficult to tell those flowing-white-haired-prettyboys-with-mommy-issues-wearing-leather-armor-and-carrying-ridiculously-oversized-swords-from-games-released-in-1997 apart.
Who is that at the end, and they make reference to him as if we're supposed to know him, but wouldn't that just be fan service from the Japanese series? They did that same thing with LoS1, they name dropped the hell out of a lot of people but only to seemingly remind people of what game they were playing. If it's a new series, make it a new series. If it's Castlevania, make it Castlevania! I'm not as block-headed as Trevor McGee to suggest that LoS game sucked, (that's just fanboy hate speech... trust me I used to be that way myself) but hopefully they can get on the ball with making it actually feel like Castlevania instead of God of War with 2 Shadow of Colossus boss battles and Prince of Persia platforming. Castlevania had it's own style... utilize it!!!
"Mercury Steam is behind the new game for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation"
Dind't know the original PlayStation is such a power house :), but maybe you are talking about the PlayStation 3
I liked Castlevania: LoS, so I'm looking forward to LoS2. I hope I don't have to buy and play an 3DS to enjoy LoS 2...

The video isnt working. I'm interested in Mirror of Fate.....LoS I'll probably rent and forget like the last one.
the first was one of my favourite games not just of this gen but period. the announcement of this and a new 3ds game relating to LOS is brilliant news.
Honestly, this is exactly what I was hoping for (so far...). I want to play as Dracula. I think Gabriels motivation will be to die so that he can join Marie in heaven. In order to do that though, there is really only a few people who can release him of his fate...
How great would it be if thats Alucard at the end, but instead of "remaking" SotN, they show it from Dracula's perspective. Sounds like a cool way not to "spoil" SotN, by making Alucard the final boss you lose to, instead of playing as Alucard and killing Dracula.

Ohhh baby! The more I hear the hornier I get. LOS was a great game, and I can't imagine a Castlevania title any other way anymore. Can't wait to see more.
I like how this is turning out to be sort of an "Ultimates" style retelling, rather than a full reboot. So far as LoS's validity, I think it stands well as a Castlevania game. Guy with whip, fighting old horror movie monsters, working up to big bad monster. Yes, that's usually Dracula, but I think they took it to a cool place with LoS. Defining what a game seriesbecomes when it shifts perspective really relies on fan support, I guess. I, at least, totally support it.
Ok, I feel like a broken record:
SPOILER WARNING!
Gabriel is Dracul, NOT Dracula.
The guy in the end is most probably Dracula, not Alucard. They both look very similar since Symphony of the Night.

For those who don't know, Gabriel is Dracula, you can see the transformation on the last 2 DLC. So that makes me wonder who is going to be the playable cjatacter, Dracula or someone new? Could they introduce Simon Belmont?

"For those who don't know, Gabriel is Dracula..."
No, he is NOT. He's --> Dracul, the Dragon <---.
Not the same guy.

You'll play as Gabriel, now Vlad Dracul, against Vlad Dracula, his son who's trying to usurp him.
I'm calling it right now.

You're all wrong. It's Draculala, which is Alucard's son that he made with Solid Snake in a fan fiction I read once. CALLING IT.
@El Conrado did you see the epilogue to the first game? Where he's quite clearly depicted as Dracula. I don't think mercury steam cares about the distinction between the names they'll do what they want.
