Konami's E3 show floor listing reveals multiplatform compilation (and other stuff)
- Thread starter Mega Man Zero
- Start date
Then it turns out it's a sequel to a Kojima directed game!
Wich will be Penguin Adventure R...
As an aside, I've noticed a recent trend of French publications having pretty solid leaks.
Oh that's what the clamour for Simon is about, interesting. I'd assumed it was a stupid meme like Goku.
I would like a link to this. Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls hasn't been showcased at E3, right? That's been more or less promised to be getting a localization. I would hope they're not referring to a localization announcement.
It depends on what "reveal" means, here.

They are talking about it at 38.00
The gamekult team has a meeting for a unnanounced game.
This isn't PES or the sport compilation (i don't know a thing about this game).
The editor in chief knows some things on this game but can't talk about it yet.
It's most definitely Castlevania then. ResetERA's own Dusk Golem alluded to Konami wanting to revive the Castlevania IP as a "counter" to Bloodstained. It's likely that, if they're keeping it a secret.
I also have to presume if we're linking it to rumors, this is a new game they're showing. No reason to announce a compilation behind closed doors, and if that's going to be tied with anything, it seems most fitting to announce it with season 2 of the Netflix show. The Castlevania animated series viewerbase is actually split between people who have played the games and those who never touched the games, so a compilation would likely be aimed at grooming viewers of the show into players of the games.
I mean, as a classic games character with ties to Nintendo's history (dude was even in Captain N lol), Simon would be a reasonable request as far as third party characters go even without any rumors.
Oh sure, and he has a very fitting move set for the game. I was just surprised by how much people were name dropping him
Gamekult is a very reputable site. They don't clickbait and write about rumours without verifying sources.
But they didn't even hint towards castlevania
It's dead Jim....
Apparently Konami is showing off an unannounced game behind closed doors today. So, it is either MGS or Castlevania related.
Usually because it's not polished enough to show to the public or because there's an embargo at which point we'll find out about it alongside articles from various media outlets going up. Just be patient, we'll see it soon!
Many reasons. Could be too early, something they feel that won't "flow" by being available to the public, or that they want to control information. Let's assume, hypothetically, it's a Castlevania game based on the Netflix show, so a reimagining of Dracula's Curse. Do they announce it at E3, or when season 2 drops? They could totally capitalize on the latter, to get non-fans into the IP who don't follow E3.
So I take it we're not seeing this today? Oh well.
I thought the comp was outed to be that sports thing? Is there another comp or am I mistaken?

What if it's because they're embarrassed about what the public will think?
I.E. Metal Gear Solid: Kart Racer or Castlevania: Hide N' Seek?
They always had reliable sources, especially with Japanese companies. Regarding Gamekult, they're closely affiliated with someone working in Japan for decades.
I think it's a Castlevania game, and I think that the reason why it's behind closed doors is because they want the press to try the game, write their impressions (a preview) and embargo those previews until the game is officially announced or released (probably around the anime's release).
But why all the secrecy? Well, Konami probably just wants to grab the opportunity now that all the press is at E3, instead of later on having to fly them in or send out preview builds.

I'm thinking this too.
They're going to use the Netflix show to help push users to a new game. Presuming this is the case, I wouldn't be surprised if the game is, in fact, actually based on the show.
Presuming this is all true, I think it's going to unfold with releasing Season 2 on Netflix, announcing Season 3 is being made [this has been leaked but not announced publicly], and announcing a game based on the show.
Yeah, I think so too. But I couldn't care less about the new game, what I want is SotN on the Switch :P
I get that but there are so many ways to play this game. Xbox One, 360, PS3, Vita, PSP, or emulation on whichever device you like.
I need something more (a collection on par with Mega Man), or a new game entirely.
I shared some of the news here on the Castlevania Dungeon, and one of the users brought this up after watching the Gamekult video...
If this doesn't say it all, I don't know what does.

BOY.
Don't do this to me, it'll hurt like hell when it turns out to be some kind of monkey paw deal.
I don't have either of those systems. I can emulate it on the PC, of course, but I want an official product on my favorite console.
SotN is alleged to be in the collection, but I doubt it will have the extra content the Megaman Collections have (art, etc.). A new game is coming too according to the rumor.
Everything should be revealed by the time the anime hits.
"Summer" is all we know.
The first season dropped in July, for reference.
ReBirth was their Wii line. It likely means Revival or Return.
