the journey for the true meaning of Christmas. that's classic. XD XD XD :lol:

I dunno, is this just a placeholder title for a new console based Castlevania?

or maybe it's an experiment to learn from so the next console Castlevania can
take advantage of what they learn from LoS and improve their own game.

Well, I'll definitely take this over a Nanobreaker sequel. The design elements are all there, now they just have to pick a gameplay direction that is fresh and not too Castlevania-ish, yet not too UnCastlevania-ish.

"Lords of Shadow also utilises a unique multi-functional weapon system called the Combat Cross™, wherein Gabriel’s favored armament can serve a multitude of purposes. For ranged attacks, an extendible chain can cause major carnage but also grip enemies, for melee the Combat Cross™ can be extended into a stabbing weapon, or changed into a heavier night stick style device for defensive capabilities."

Sounds very 'stylish hard action' ish
