Gamers increasingly need to know what’s happening backstage in their favorite games. While the improvement diary can have once been on an additional disc for a different edition, publishers are actually releasing them before the sport comes out to drum up excitement. Now Konami is jumping at the dev diary bandwagon for its latest Castlevania title.

Konami and MercurySteam released the primary dev diary for Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 today. This actual dev diary makes a speciality of what the team desires to do with the nature of Dracula on this game. Since players can be playing as Dracula this time around, the team desired to make players empathize with him while still holding him at arm’s length.

If the need arises take a look at Lords of Shadow 2 for yourself, the demo is currently available as an advantage for buying Castlevania: Lords of Shadow – Mirror of Fate HD on PSN or XBLA. If you’re partial to the franchise, you’ll are looking to take a look at Mirror of Fate anyway because it details the events between the primary Lords of Shadow and its upcoming sequel.

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 launches February 25 for the PS3, Xbox 360 and PC.
