Rumor: Castlevania: Harmony Of Despair Is Multiplayer Castlevania For Xbox Live Arcade

As soon as we dug up the Harmony of Despair trademark we knew it had to be for another Castlevania game. The surprise might be it’s a multiplayer game with a mishmash of Castlevania characters.

A “trusted source” told our Joystiq, the game supports six players with cooperative and versus play. Another post, which has since been pulled, from blog Never Know Tech claims this is a “Metroidvania” style game that reuses sprites from past Castlevania games – Nintendo DS and Game Boy Advance games.

Characters like Alucard from Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, Soma Cruz from Castlvania: Dawn of Sorrow, and Shanoa from 2008’s Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia are said to be in the downloadable game.
