Castlevania: Harmony of Despair is a side-scrolling adventure from legendary producer Koji Igarashi. Levels are inspired by environments in Dawn of Sorrow, Portrait of Ruin and Order of Ecclesia.
Up to six players can enjoy a bit of online co-op, or battle it out in survival mode. There's a combo attack system and a ghost mode that allows you to upload and download player data.
The game will cost 1200 Microsoft Points, or £10.20 to you. Have a look at the old screenshot gallery if you want to see how Castlevania: Harmony of Despair is shaping up.
