The Castlevania realm has been around for over 25 years now. That's a long time to build up an army of knowledge for those of you dedicated to the series. Well let's see how far your Castlevania learning has come since then, with a trivia that Konami (or rather MercurySteam) has released which is based on Lords of Shadow. On second thought, there are a number of factors and "Vania" games this trivia is based on. Simon's Quest, Dracula's Curse, characters of the past and so on. So let's test your knowledge with a list of 10 things you may or may not know. Here it is.
1. The design of Gabriel's costume in Castlevania: Lords of Shadow was based on the cover of the NES game "Simon's Quest".
2. We considered various actors for the role of Dracula including Gerard Butler and Jonathan Rhys Meyers, both of whom have played Dracula.
3. Mercury Engine 2 was designed for next gen systems and was built from scratch.
4. Almost every single enemy and character has appeared in previous Castlevania games.
5. The work of Guillermo Del Toro has been a big influence on the Castlevania: Lords of Shadow series.
6. Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 uses a combination of orchestral and electronic music. This was done to highlight the past and present aspects of the game.
7. Zobek is an amalgamation of the Dark Priest Shaf and Death from earlier Castlevania games.
8. In Dracula Curse for the NES, if players completed the game as Trevor Belmont, during the end cut scene Trevor married Sypha Belnades. In Mirror of Fate Trevor is married to Sypha Belnades.
9. Hideo Kojima played the character of Chupacabras in the Japanese version of Castlevania: Lords of Shadow.
10. Hoko Kuwashima, Carmilla's Japanese voice actress, also voiced Shanoa in Order of Ecclesia.
The Mercury Engine 2 was designed for next generation systems eh? You know what that could mean don't you? You just might see a version of Lords of Shadow 2 launched for PS4 and Xbox One. Perhaps. The Castlevania Collection is currently out in stores, while Mirror of Fate HD is also available with it and on Playstation Network and Xbox Live. A PC version of MOF has been considered by MercurySteam, something I would like to see myself.
