The developers of Castlevania: Lord of Shadow have just changed their website a little. It’s currently been taken over by a semi-interactive teaser for their next as-yet-unknown game, and it includes a countdown to a date in the middle of next month.

MercuryStorm teased the new sci-fi game a while ago, with the site previously saying the the team were off “exploring new worlds, fighting strange creatures, discovering new heroes”. Now it’s updated to show an image of a man with a cigar in a tiny cockpit, surrounded by a retro-futuristic mishmash of things like dials, radars, portholes and computer screens. Clicking upon the computer screen will take you to three options – a link to the studio’s other games, a message about the crew being in “hibernation” (for a long space journey perhaps?) and the aforementioned countdown timer which will end on April 15th.

Just what it’s counting down to isn’t known yet, but it’s a fair bet that it’ll be a proper reveal of the game – title, some images, a concept. So keep your eyes glued to the site on the date in question to find out first.
