…and with 3D models, as well. Bet none of you were expecting that!

Several characters have been confirmed for Castlevania Judgement, including Dracula, Simon, Alucard, Shanoa, and Maria Renard. Depending on the number of hearts you have, you can use subweapons such as holy water, magic spells, a dagger, and a boomerang. Within fights, set traps, destroyable environments, and enemy monsters will interfere with the battle as you use the Nunchuk to move around and the Wii Remote for gesture-based attacks.

To top it off, it doesn’t look like we’ll get any new music for this game. They’ll be new remixes of classic Castlevania themes.

Now here’s Castlevania: I actually had some fun with the PS2 installments, and I had my mind on something similar for the Wii. Not happening. Here’s hoping we get top notch quality with this game!
