Episode Synopsis

Gothic castles, divine relics, and a Belmont on the edge—let’s talk Castlevania: Lords of Shadow.
In this episode of the K J and A Podcast, we sink our fangs into Castlevania: Lords of Shadow — MercurySteam and Kojima Productions’ bold reboot of the iconic franchise.
We discuss:



The shift from 2D to cinematic 3D and how it changed the series


Gabriel Belmont’s tragic journey from holy knight to something much darker


God masks, necromancers, werewolves, vampires, and titanic bosses


The game’s combat, puzzles, and exploration (plus that satisfying whip!)


That twist ending and what it meant for the Castlevania timeline


Whether the game holds up today and how it compares to the classics


Whether you played it back in 2010 or just discovered it now, Lords of Shadow offers one of the boldest takes on Belmont lore—and we’re here to dig into all of it.
