Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls the game on iOS announced by Konami

Fans of the Castlevania license have their patience rewarded. The license developed by Konami was more or less in stand-by for a few years and the last game of the saga: Lords of Shadow 2. Despite a series that was published on the platform Netflix should be back this summer for a second season. Now Konami announces the creation of a new mobile game that will be released first in Japan. Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls is pre-registering for iOS mobiles.

The Castlevania license highlights the deadly confrontation between the Belmont lineage and Count Dracula. The games developed by Konami started in 1986 on the NES. The series had a reboot with the series of Lords of Shadow which ended in 2014. Yet recently nothing until the announcement of the new mobile game.

The new mobile game Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls is currently in pre-registration for Japanese players. However Konami via his tweet offered several snapshots of the game and important announcements. First of all know that mobile gaming will be available exclusively, for the moment, on iOS platforms. Then the Castlevania mobile game takes the basics of what made its first success with a 2D view where you can progress. As for the story, the main character will be Genya Arikado or otherwise named Alucard. The son of Dracula will have the mission, once again to prevent the possible resurrection of his father psychopath as soon as possible.

He will be supported in his quest by several heroes of the saga like Simon Belmont, Lucy or Maria who have all appeared in one of the Castlevania license games. As for the gameplay, the game will focus mainly on cooperation with 4 players whether it is the AI or other players. A competitive mode of 4 vs 4 is also planned but to learn more you will have to wait.
