New DS Castlevania on the way, Fall 2008.
We heard the rumors, then Famitsu, but now it's official.
Konami today announced Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia for the DS. The game will introduce a new "Glyph" attack system that will allow players to use special attack combos in order to defeat Dracula's baddies.
The series will introduce new outdoor locations such as forests and oceans, so that players can explore areas beyond Dracula's Castle.
Section of press release:
In Order of Ecclesia players take the role of a member of the Ecclesia, an organization that has sworn to defeat the evil forces of Dracula. By using the new Glyph attack system, players can unleash more than 100 different combinations to battle Dracula's minions throughout 20 explorable areas. Utilizing the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection™, players can choose to compete head-to-head, or trade items and equipment they have found while exploring the environments. Multiple endings that can be unlocked depending on how the player completes the game adds even more replay value to the game with plenty of addictive exploration, combat and items to discover.
