Cut from the same tattered, bloodstained cloth as the classic Castlevania titles from the original NES, Saint Slayer: Spear of Sacrilege aims to carry the torch for Konami, since the studio hasn't created a new game in the famous vampire-slaying franchise in eleven years. While the game is most directly inspired by those iconic Castlevania entries, the developers at Lillymo Games, mentioned that Capcom's DuckTales is also a key influence on Saint Slayer's gameplay.
Game Details:
The year is 1698. A mysterious figure named Father Pacer has shattered the peace negotiated after the War of the Grand Alliance, obsessively and violently stealing Catholic relics throughout the Holy Roman Empire. Can the ex-soldier-turned-farmer Rudiger protect his people from a power-mad priest and his horde of monsters and minions? Can he become Saint Slayer?
