"Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2" DLC Puts Alucard in the Spotlight

Konami detailed plans for upcoming Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 DLC featuring Alucard. Pricing wasn't announced, but "Revelations" is set to arrive via Xbox Live and PlayStation Network on March 25. 


 


Players take control of fan-favorite character Alucard, who is named as such because he is the son of Dracula and everyone knows you must give your children your own name but backwards. Duh. The story is set before the events of Lords of Shadow 2 and finds Alucard preparing for his father's return and the forthcoming battle against Satan. 


 









 


Alucard has his own unique abilities, including Glaciem and Igneas powers, as well as vampiric abilities that let him turn back time and transform into a wolf or a swarm of bats. Since blood fuels his powers, drinking the blood of your enemies will intensify them.
