Little else—not even a prospective release date—was revealed for Nocturne, but the brief teaser gives us a look at one of its main protagonists: Richter Belmont, the star of Castlevania: Rondo of Blood and a major character in the iconic Symphony of the Night. In Nocturne, Richter is a descendent long distant from vampire slayer Trevor Belmont and the mage Sypha Belnades, and we follow his vampire-hunting adventures during the French Revolution in late 18th-century France. Richter will team up with another familiar face from the games: Maria Renard, herself a powerful magic user with her own distant connection to the Belmont legacy, who appeared alongside Richter as a young girl in Rondo of Blood.
