[UPDATE] Leipzig: Konami reveals Lords of Shadow

Posted on August 20th, 2008 at 20:25 EDT

Konami has just unveiled brand new console IP known as ‘Lords of Shadow’ during its press conference at the Leipzig Games Convention.

Sounding remarkably like a cross between Castlevania and Too Human, the trailer depicted a lone knight kneeling in an atmospheric church, quickly followed by an almighty crash as a giant creature tears at the roof - shattering any illusion this would be anything but an action title.

@The_Skul, knowledge4lfe

I think you're misreading I95 SOUTH's post, when he mentions the 360 he's talking about Lords of Shadow.

As for the game, cool trailer, it could be a Shadow of the Colossus type game going round taking down opponents alot larger than yourself.

well, to be honest, im hoping for an RPG. im not sure if Konami have ever really made RPG's, never knew much of them beyond the MGS series, and the PS3 has been REALLY lacking a good RPG aside from oblivion. so come on, please!
