Dracula’s Legacy joins the lineup of titles set to hit the European Wii U eShop on July 14. The game’s release is confirmed through a listing on the store, which has a €7.99 price point.

Here’s an overview of Dracula’s Legacy:

Haunted by frightening dreams about her forgotten past, Isabella, along with her fiancé, were able to decipher one clue from the depths of her memory that leads them to an old ghost town. While exploring, they encounter a terrifying creature and the pair are separated. Help Isabella traverse dungeons inhabited by deadly vampires to reach the city of lost souls and rescue her fiancé!

Back in February, Heart Machine said that the Wii U version of Hyper Light Drifter was “in limbo”. It seemed like the game could end up being cancelled on Nintendo’s console, but there’s now a bit of encouraging news to report. In a Kickstarter update posted last week, Heart Machine said of Hyper Light Drifter on Wii U: “We are finalizing last details on this port by next month, and will have more info then.”

That definitely sounds promising, though we don’t have confirmation on the situation just yet. Regardless of what happens, we’ll let you know.
