Running, jumping, and tossing a glaive through time provides a fresh Metroidvania experience that's hard to resist.

What we know so far

Automatic note by LuaCat Games, built from what we know about the coverage (who reported it, how many sites, the story’s history) — not a translation or copy of the source.

This comes from Polygon, which does its own reporting — for now, it's the only coverage. Worth remembering the scale here: Castlevania changed what people expected from the genre back in 1986, and the bar stayed up. The previous Castlevania trailer came out 13 days before this story.

Bottom line: Safe to take the main point — it's the fine detail that sometimes shifts later.
