Out of GamesCom 2012 in Cologne, Konami has let it be known that Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2, the anticipated sequel to Mercury Steam's well-received action adventure title will now also be coming to PC, in addition to the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions already announced.
The Windows PC version of Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 is being simultaneously developed by Madrid-based Mercury Steam, and builds on its critically acclaimed predecessor in every way. The new game features an all-new storyline, a larger cast of characters, huge open world environments and breath-taking visuals delivered via a much more powerful, brand new in house game engine called Mercury Engine 2.
The press release doesn't mention any specific ways that the Madrid-based studio is planning on taking advantage of the strengths of the PC platform, only that "It is a game that pushes whatever format it is on to the absolute limit".
The release date for the Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 is still broadly set for "2013".
