Originally released on Nintendo's handheld as a bridge between Castlevania: Lords of Shadow (http://www.joystiq.com/game/castlevania-lords-of-shadow) and the recently-released Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 (http://www.joystiq.com/2014/02/25/castlevania-lords-of-shadow-2-review-walk-the-line/),Mirror of Fate sees Trevor Belmont traversing the familiar gothic climes of Dracula's domain. Gameplay is a cross between the action-focused Lords of Shadow games and those Castlevania entries (mostly notably Castlevania: Symphony of the Night) that focus on 2D exploration.
The PC incarnation of Mirror of Fate is based on the more recent PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 games, which means that it comes equipped with high-definition graphics, online leaderboards and a Boss Rush mode. New to the PC game are Steam Achievements, though they should be essentially identical to the Achievements and Trophies found in the Xbox 360 and PS3 games, respectively.
Unfortunately lacking from Konami's announcement is a price point forCastlevania: Lords of Shadow - Mirror of Fate HD, and any specific release date. The best the publisher is willing to offer is a vague "later this month" release window which only leaves about two weeks for Dracula to crawl from his tomb once again.
