Konami UK has released a new gameplay trailer for the upcoming 3DS game Castlevania: Lords of Shadow – Mirror of Fate, which shows off just how long players may be spending with it.

According to Konami's estimates, you can expect about 20 hours of gameplay. Of course, they don't elaborate on whether they're talking about just the critical path or a deeper exploration into Dracula's castle.

Either way, you'll be getting a lot of mileage out of your whip.

The 20 hours of gameplay is kind of old news I knew it was gonna be about that long a couple of months ago before Christmas, didn't they already talk about how long the game was gonna be estimated on this site?

I get pretty sore after just 15 minutes of whip-slinging action. Usually don't make it past five, anyway.

Awesome this will give me exactly enough time to beat it before Luigis Mansion.

Awesome.

Love me some 2D Castlevania. I spent so many hours playing through all the GBA and DS games. I'm intrigued with this, especially with the combat changes.

I wish this game was more on the lines of Koji Igarashi's entries in the series, and those game we're the sweet, sweet dessert of gaming. Still, this doesn't look bad, and Mercury Steam have proven themselves capable with LOS. If nothing else, I'll be getting this as a reason to power my 3DS on for the first time in over a year. Where the f**k is my Animal Crossing?

I'm gonna buy this game so fast it's instruction manual will spin!
by Zachary Pligge Tuesday, January 22, 2013 at 11:33 AM

Wow, that is a good amount of gameplay. I'm really hoping that is just critical path though. I could definitely see this game lasting a good 40 hours with side quests and collecting everything.

WHEN DOES THIS COME OUT?!?!?!?!?!?

What is a man? A miserable little pile of secrets.

Ha, looking forward to scooping a 3DS up with a handful of games with this being at the forefront.
by Ryan Connell Tuesday, January 22, 2013 at 12:07 PM

The 3DS keeps getting better! Can't wait for Luigi's Mansion and Pokemon later this year, I just hope Nintendo starts doing the same for the Wii U with more exclusive titles and soon.(at least announce them)
by Meta77 Tuesday, January 22, 2013 at 12:21 PM

whip it.............whip it real good.
by John Wrek Tuesday, January 22, 2013 at 12:27 PM

Impressive.
by Robertman2/Kira Tuesday, January 22, 2013 at 01:06 PM

I want this game!
by Andrewforbes88 Tuesday, January 22, 2013 at 02:09 PM

I can't wait for this game. I don't even have a 3DS but that's going to have to change.
