A PC version of the next Lords of Shadow game coming.

Konami today announced that there will be a PC version of Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 alongside the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions of the game when it launches next year.

Mercury Steam, the development house on the title based in Madrid, Spain, is simultaneously developing the PC version of the game together with the console versions.

Dave Cox, Producer on the game and Head of Product Planning and Development at Konami said: "This new game tells a much broader tale and one that spans centuries. It is a game that pushes whatever format it is on to the absolute limit, and we are delighted that [the game's] rich blend of first-class fighting, deep exploration and rich storytelling are set to delight and enthrall PC users, too.

"There's a darkness coming and with our new game engine, we hope to deliver something truly special across multiple formats that will set new standards for action adventure games."
