Lords of Shadow 2 may have been preoccupied with the end of Gabriel's journey as Dracula, but next week's Revelations DLC focuses on his son Alucard (of Symphony of the Night fame), as voiced by Game of Thrones' Richard Madden. The DLC is a prequel to MercurySteam's recently-released Castlevania sequel and it seems to involve Alucard (playable here, and whose overall character seems to have changed a lot since his most popular appearance more than 15 years ago) setting into motion some larger plot having to do with Satan's return whilst clarifying some of the character's motives and engaging in fisticuffs and one-liners alike.
It also looks visually pretty great – hopefully we'll get a more of that gorgeous gothic architecture MercurySteam's art direction does so well when that's its focus. Revelations is out March 25 and should run you $10.

Hopefully not a miserable little pile of secrets.
