Spoiler: What's Dracula's Circle?

 

[Sir Guts]

WHAT A BEAUTIFUL OT!!! Totally forgot that it's releasing on the 24th. I'm so hyped and pumped for this game. Gotta love the characters model it gives me old school vibes

 

[PlanetSmasher]

Huh, this is out this week? So people who got it through the Kickstarter should be getting their codes on Thursday, then?

 

[skillzilla81]

Where's mah code?

This looks so fucking amazing.

 

[sir_crocodile]

Not on GOG due to Inti Creates somehow owning this and not Iga btw

wonder how that happened.

 

[hank_tree]

Do we not do OTs on release day here?

 

[Wandu]

I didn't know this was coming out this Thursday until I read the PS Blog early this morning. I will be buying it upon release.

 

[Tohsaka]

Nice OT, hope we get our backer codes soon.

 

[-shadow-]

So soon already?! I can't wait!

 

[Mega Man Zero]

The OT OT says they can be posted up to 72 hours before release. It's 71 hours until eShop update time on Thursday where I am.

 

[Chibs]

So is this relevant for the story in Ritual of the Night or is it more like fan service?

 

[Shinobido Heart]

Can't believe it releases this week. So excited!

 

[TheMoon]

Do we not do OTs on release day here?

Click to shrink...

there's this bizarre rule where OTs are allowed to be posted 3 days ahead as per site rules. I think it's pointless but here we are.

hope the game is as cool as it looks and they get the codes out soon for backers...

Read that USGamer piece by Parish. They go into what it is there.

 

[ZeroX]

Over / under on this being better than the Ritual of the Night? This and Mighty Gunvolt, man, solid stuff.

Few days before release

 

[ShinobiBk]

NS?
I thought NSW was the official Switch abbreviation. Yes it doesn't make sense much like GCN but we need 3 letter damn it

I really regret buying Dragon's Trap on sale cause I forgot this was coming out. Would've rather had this game

Visually this is more appealing to me but I suspect ROTN will be the better game. Iga knows his stuff.

 

[Red Arremer]

I don't think the two games are gonna be directly comparable, since they're aiming to do different things. So, hard to say which one will be "better". Though I think that for the 10$ price point, this is gonna be a fantastic game.

 

[Ahasverus]

So damn excited

 

[GustyGardens]

It looks very Dracula's Curse. I'm OK with that.

 

[ZeroX]

Why does it need to be three letters

 

[Bookman]

I'm really excited about this!
Are there any previews or review's out?

There's a 20min gameplay video on Youtube. I didn't actually watch it ebecause that's probably 1/3 of the game but jt's there.

Jeremy Parish has some quick impressions here, along with some comments from Iga and Inti Creates' Takuya Aizu. https://www.usgamer.net/articles/bl...uld-be-best-modern-castlevania-game-bitsummit

 

[Sir Guts]

Now I just hope Ritual of the Night comes out this year too

 

[Codosbuya]

Any word on game duration¿

 

[//ARCANUM]

Man, I have next to no experience with Castlevania games (one of my biggest gaming shames), but this looks awesome. Might pick it up for Switch. $9.99 is a good price. Any idea about how long it takes to beat?

 

[Mr. Nice_Guy]

Whoa wait, this is out this week?? I haven't been keeping up. Backed at the $300 tier years ago so I'll be curious to see how that edition looks. Can't wait to see how it all turned out.

 

[Comic Obsessed]

I already paid $28 for both the main game and this one on Switch.

When can we expect some reviews?

 

[oni-link]

Cross buy on Vita/PS4?

 

[KtotheRoc]

I am very excited about this. I recently replayed Super Castlevania IV (which, I know, this one was built to look like the 8-bit games), and I am very excited for another round of old-school Castlevania-style fun.

 

[Xaero Gravity]

Keep in mind this isn't the main game.

 

[Chromax]

Whoa, I thought it was still a way off.


Oh it's the 8-bit version

 

[Hieroph]

Looks very good. I think I'll manage to squeeze in a couple of hours before Detroit.

 

[onpoint]

Gonna play so much of this it's not even funny

 

[janusff]

Very much looking forward to this.

 

[Vamphuntr]

Nice OT. Informative, nicely formatted and concise. Hopefully we get our backer codes in advance. Changed my copies from Steam to Switch because why not.

 

[Steeped in a Sea of Games]

The time has finally come and so have I.

 

[Geoff]

Why does it need to be three letters

Click to shrink...

Because otherwise it wouldn't be a TLA.

 

[Darkmaigle]

God bless Inti

 

[Lee Chaolan]

Wish this one had online co-op. Would like something like Harmony of Despair with the spirtes and the online co-op

 

[Tunahead]

Because otherwise it wouldn't be a TLA.

The Last Airbender?

 

[AztecComplex]

Great OT but shouldn't this go up 24 hours before the game comes out? We still have 4 days of wait.

The OT OT says they can be posted up to 72 hours before release. It's 71 hours until eShop update time on Thursday where I am.

Click to shrink...

I could've sworn it was 24 hours. Maybe that was back in the old place only.

 

[AztecComplex]

Wish this one had online co-op. Would like something like Harmony of Despair with the spirtes and the online co-op

Click to shrink...

What? Why? No. What you want is an entirely different game then. What us backers wanted and were promised was a classic throwback to the original 8bit Castlevanias.

 

[Cbrun44]

I am all over this... Looks so good.

 

[Mewzard]

Definitely excited to be getting this. It's a pleasant surprise to be sure. Think I'll try my first run to grab everyone, then replay with fewer and fewer characters until it's just Zangetsu.

 

[Sadist]

I need this

 

[Mauricio_Magus]

I'm really excited for this one, can't wait.

 

[Nocturnowl]

Please be good, please be good, I need my modern day CV3

Also I just worked out the OT title, heh heh

 

[AHA-Lambda]

Any word on length?

Has anyone received their key for this yet?
