Castlevania fans, rejoice! You no longer have to wait to experience the magic of Castlevania: Lords of Shadows 2. Why? Because, a demo for Castlevania: Lords of Shadows 2 is out today on PSN and Steam! But wait: there’s some bad news regarding the demo.
The demo kind of sucks.
Castlevania: Lords of Shadows 2 will cover a tutorial that is quite boring, so you may want to skip it. Especially if you know you are going to be buying Castlevania: Lords of Shadows 2 once it releases later this year, you will have to play the tutorial all over again, so do yourself a favor and just wait until the game releases later on.
However, if you don’t mind tutorials? The demo isn’t all bad. You will be punching people and making them explode into a bloody pulp as well as riding atop a towering automaton that is attacking your castle. There’s some nice set pieces in the demo that will allow you to get a feel for what Castlevania: Lords of Shadows 2 is all about, so if you don’t mind playing a boring tutorial twice? Download the demo today, and get excited for the release of Castlevania: Lords of Shadows 2 later this year!
