Konami Digital Entertainment has announced Castlevania Judgment is currently in development by series producer Koji “Iga” Igarashi exclusively for Nintendo Wii.
Castlevania Judgment is being designed as the first true fighting game in the now 22 years and running series, paying tribute to past games by including them in the new game.
Moving to the Wii and fighting brings 3D environments and motion controls with it. Famed manga artist Takeshi Obata has designed updated versions of the characters to appear in the three-dimensional world.
Wii motion controls will let players hack, stab and whip there way through each level. Some characters can set traps and utilize monsters against their enemies, and select objects will be movable by the Wii Remote.
Castlevania Judgment offers head-to-head online play via Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. Players can also connect with Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia on the Nintendo DS to unlock otherwise unavailable content.
