A while ago, Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2’s demo was made available exclusively to those who purchased Mirror of Fate HD, or the Lords of Shadow Collection on PlayStation 3 or Xbox 360. Now Konami has stripped the demo of such exclusivity. Anyone can now download the demo and experience one of the most exhilarating openings in a game I’ve played in quite a while.
The demo is up for grabs on the PlayStation Store, Xbox Live and PC. In it you’ll get a very solid grasp of the game’s mechanics, from the improved combat to the satisfying platforming. Then you’ll get to combine both in one epic boss fight. It all plays out with some amazing music from Oscar Araujo. Is it February 25 yet?
