Castlevania: Lords of Shadow – Mirror of Fate

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow – Mirror of Fate is a 2013 action-adventure game developed by MercurySteam for the Nintendo 3DS. It is a direct sequel to Castlevania: Lords of Shadow, which served as a reboot of the Castlevania franchise. Players control multiple characters as they explore a labyrinthine castle and piece together the mystery of Dracula's return.

The game received mixed-to-positive reviews, with praise for its visuals and combat, while some criticized its story and level design. An upgraded version of the game, titled Castlevania: Lords of Shadow – Mirror of Fate HD, was released digitally for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Windows.

The player assumes the role of Gabriel Belmont, his son Trevor Belmont, grandson Simon Belmont (Trevor's son), and Alucard. Mirror of Fate is a side-scrolling action-adventure game. It returns to the classic Castlevania gameplay viewed in the main series.

Prologue

Prior to the events of the previous game, Gabriel Belmont (voiced by Robert Carlyle) makes love to his wife Marie before accompanying four Order knights on a mission to slay a Lycan. While he is gone, Marie gives birth while surrounded by Pan and the heads of the Order. She names the baby Trevor before the Order takes him away due to fear of an omimous prophecy.

Simon's Story

An untold period of time later, Simon Belmont (voiced by Alec Newman), Trevor's son, witnesses his mother's murder at the hands of Dracula's forces. He pledges her vengeance before fleeing to the mountains. The Mountain People raise him as a fighter and he becomes a master at the whip. Upon reaching adulthood, Simon leaves the mountains to go to Castlevania, Dracula's castle. Upon arriving he meets a shade (voiced by Michael Maloney), who requests his medallion. He refuses and The Shade directs him to obtain a copy of The Combat Cross (The original destroyed by Gabriel in the first game) which allows him to swing across large gaps. He enters the theatre but is trapped and ambushed by an endless stream of Evil Puppets who fight him. Just as he is about to be cut down, a White Haired Man saves him and ends the stream of puppets. The White Haired Man flees before Simon can confront him.

The White Haired Man saves Simon once more by stopping a dangerous carousel. He reveals that he knows Simon before fleeing once more.
