And are they going to try to fit this into the main timeline only for the timeline to conflict with itself and cause complaints to fans like some other CV games?

Maybe it'll be something away from the timeline like CotM, so there no restrictions to the the time of when the story occurs.

If she's not belmont, and has nothing to do whith the belmonts nor any other family that has to do anything with the ledgendary vamp hunters, like Mr. Graves, then it'll probably have nothing to do with the belmont timeline (main timeline).

If I was wrong, or is thinking to much on nothing, correct me, as I only read the gamespy preview, and pretty much no other info on it than that, so I'm pretty clueless.

the game takes place shortly after SotN, so it shouldn't conflict with CotM or the 64 games. at least, i don't think "shortly" translates to 1830-ish. "shortly" is probably before 1810.

From SectionX2 by newest NP (Nintendo Power I believe?) info:

- Game takes place in mid 1800s when Belmont went missing
- All people unsuccessful at combating Dracula until Ecclesia formed
- Shanoa is the main character - first time a female stars
- Shanoa can use Glyphs (have many abilities) - source of Shanoa?s power
- ?No real weapons in this game? - Glyphs used for every attack with MP
- Glyphs can change form: Ex - turn into a sword
- Glyphs located in environments, found when enemies dropped them, and other ways
- New layer of strategy due to glyph MP consumption with glyphs
- MP refills quickly when not attacking
- Can create combos
- Glyph Union special attack: Huge sword travels across the screen, constant barrage of knife hits -requires hearts
- Glyphs can be used in other ways: Ex - Produce magnetic field and cling to metal rods
- Barlowe part of Order of Ecclesia - gives tips and teaches you about your abilities at the beginning
- Albus also part of the Ecclesia group - Takes Dominus at the start of the game(the best Glyph weapon against the Dracula) - Shanoa loses her memory + power)
- World map utilized
- More than 20 locales in the game, Shanoa travels to find Dominus
- Save statues, teleport rooms return
- Side quests given by rescued villagers - villager data available in menui
- Game looks more mature, somber, painted than other games on the DS
- Michiru Yamane handling sound again
- No returning characters except for Dracula
- Returning from previous versions: Leveling-up, dodging (L/R buttons), select button to switch between map and stats, hard difficulty setting, multiple endings, Wi-Fi support
- Wi-Fi: New item interface: you can have your own shop, vs. competition considers items used and damaged received to determine winner
- Other features NP can?t talk about

P.S. That is indeed better than Kojima IMO! :D

I'm glad to see something different from the Castlevania team, as much as I love this IP I don't want it to become another joke like the Megaman or Sonic games.

Crispy Gamer: Who's the artist? Are you sticking with the usual suspects for art and music?

Igarashi: For character design we used someone who's up-and-coming and very young and becoming very popular named Masaki. In regards to music, I'm sure you heard a very familiar sound in the trailer, but Michiru Yamane did a lot of the music.

I can only hope they merely forgot to mention NG+.
