During a recent roundtable interview, Konami’s producer Dave Cox claimed that the PC version of Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 looks way better than its console counterparts. In fact, Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 PC is so good that Dave Cox described that particular version as a next-gen game.

As Dave Cox stated:

“The PC version is almost like a next-gen version. The limitations of the current consoles…we can push that back. We designed the game engine for next-gen in mind. We knew that this would be the last game we did on current-gen, so in many ways the PC version is almost like a test run for us.”

Pretty bold statements from Dave Cox. It will be interesting to see whether Mercury Steam has used higher-resolution assets on the PC version, and whether this version supports more advanced graphical effects.

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 is scheduled for a February 28th release.

Enjoy and stay tuned for more!

Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.
