  • When Gabriel passes in front of a mirror in the trailer he has no reflection.
  • Titans are seemingly returning, as a towering mechanical being is seen during the first trailer.

Story/Gameplay Details

Through Twitter, producer David Cox has answered some questions and given confirmation of some details of the game.

  • Although Alucard uses the whip, Dark Pain, in Mirror of Fate, he will use a "very special sword" in Lords of Shadow 2.
