At E3, it was announced that Metal Gear Solid developers Kojima Productions would be helping with Castlevania: Lords of Shadow. But Kojima Productions isnāt developing the game ā that duty belongs to Madrid-based MercurySteam Entertainment.
So what is KP doing? Lending moral support, it seems.
āKojima Productions is playing more of a support role,ā explains Kojima. āCastlevania is one of Konamiās most important brands, one thatās seen many releases since the original, and theyāve all been received warmly, but thereās never been a Castlevania created to really satisfy Western gamers. This has become a big project, one with the idea that we needed to make a Castlevania which had that same kind of feverish Western support, and thatās why Kojima Productions came in to help.ā
Oh. Okay, then! Not sure if we agree that āthereās never been a Castlevania created to really satisfy Western gamersā. Our next question, why is Konami pushing Hideo Kojima into the limelight and not series producer Koji Igarashi?
