A few days ago, Castlevania: Lords of Shadow – Mirror of Fate producer David Cox made a few comments that seemed to leave the door open to a future re-release on new platforms.

First, Cox mentioned to CVG how the game’s assets were all initially produced in HD. He later told the site that an HD version for consoles could be considered, though didn’t indicate that anything was imminent.

Naturally, Cox’s comments spread and resulted in numerous rumors. In order to clarify his original statements, Cox took to Twitter and responded to fans:

Cox also flat-out denied a pair of rumors – one stating that an HD collection would be released on the Xbox 360 with Mirror of Fate, and another saying that the 3DS game will be heading to the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, PC, and Wii U.

GungHo Online Entertainment recently announced that it has acquired the Suda51-led studio Grasshopper Manufacturer.

The move was a bit surprising. Grasshopper had always acted independently even though it did team up with companies in the past, and GungHo is more mobile-focused.

On the bright side, GungHo president Kazuki Morishita assured fans in an interview with 4Gamer that Grasshopper will “continue to make games in the manner they are accustomed to.”

“I’d like Suda-san to remain focused on Grasshopper rather than GungHo as a whole. Of course now I’ll be involved in Grasshopper’s creative output, but since Suda-san is there, in a lot of ways it actually equates to a taking load off my own work. Basically, I’d like Grasshopper Manufacture to continue to make games in the manner they are accustomed to.”


Remember that Zelda LEGO set idea that was never approved? Its denial was a bit of a sting, but the legendary video game franchise now has a second chance of getting the brick treatment.

“Ragaru” has come up with his own Zelda LEGO concept that seems to avoid the pitfalls in preventing the first idea’s approval. A total of 10,000 fans have pledged their support for the project, and it’s currently in the hands of the LEGO CUUSOO team.

Have a look at some concept art of the LEGO set in the gallery above. Here’s hoping it heads past the approval process!

CSC Corporate Domains is a domain registrar. Square Enix uses the company in acquiring new domain names. Interestingly, CSC registered a new Legacy of Kain-related site for the publisher on Thursday.

Square Enix now has WarForNosgoth.com in its possession. For those who are unaware, Land of Nosgoth is the main area where the Legacy of Kain series is set.

The Legacy of Kain series has been dormant for nearly a decade. Might we be seeing a revival in the future?

It’s impossible to deny that the Wii U has received a healthy dose of indie support thus far. The future looks bright with more developers pledging support for the system.

One title that won’t be coming to the eShop is Strike Suit Zero. While the team considered a Wii U version, there were only discussions for a brief time.

Born Ready Games community manager Ben Smith told Writer Trigger:

“There were brief discussions about how a Wii U version might work, but they never got further than the ideas station.”

Developers and publishers from around the world gathered at the D.I.C.E. Summit earlier this week. For Wii U, the main piece of news stemming from the event concerns the delay of Rayman Legends. But that’s not all – there’s another concerning Wii U update to discuss.

Sidhe co-founder Mario Wynands writes that other devs and publishers were discussing “the Wii U projects that have just been cancelled” rather than “the new Wii U projects they have started”:

At DICE, nobody has been talking about the new Wii U projects they have started, only the Wii U projects that have just been cancelled.

Platform is in serious trouble.
