I will take away the intrigue, NO.

I love you.
I can see in the pics that Gab and Vic don't hate each other that much.

Wow that's amazing, very SIlent Hill-y. Good enough Legion for me.

So Victor Belmont is being played by Anthony Howell from the Dracula NBC show.

No one talked about the secret mode here huh? What do you guys think it'll be. Everyone knows I hope for Alucard. Fuck Victor, I don't want to play with another guy using a whip.

^ If that's Legion, it's bad. Legion is a fucking ball of corpses, they shouldn't try too hard to change it. It would be interesting to see how they would translate that into a boss. Now, it'll be just another fight with a humanoid monster, like the billions we got on LoS 1 and will get on LoS2.

The origin of Legion's design is a biblical account of a large number of demons who possessed a man.

Yeaaah.. no

Maybe that's a normal enemy and not a Boss at all. I mean, we don't know how big this thing is, it could be very small, smaller than Gabriel, it could be just as big as a troll or it could be Gargantuan and be another Titan like Boss. Maybe it is a normal enemy, mabe it is a Titan fight, maybe it is Legion, maybe it is Zobek's final form or maybe just another boss, who knows? Or maybe it won't appear in the game at all.

Nice creature/monster/stuff!

I was playing around in photoshop with the latest assets released by Konami, and I found this behind (in another layer) the toy dragon artwork.

Why is legion even being talked about? It looks more like Menace to me.

We all know that creature will simply be called "Demon Corpse" and nothing more 

[Slit_Zurifa]

How big do you think will it be if it is in the game?
Just as big as Gabriel or huge (if the small skulls near his arm are as big as a normal human head)? Then again if it would be huge and its legs being underwater wouldn't the water Level be too high for Gabriel to walk normally thus making this Thing rather small?
Do you think it is realistic that this might be Zobek's final form with the big skull face (which has eyes)? I mean he might be in a Death form before and after you fought him in a Death like battle he turns into this...

[Ahasverus]

I hope it's Zobek's second form. It suits him well.

I would hate it to have such a generic name. I was thinking the same thing after I say that picture. "Watch they call this things something like 'Viscera Demon' or "Tumor Entity". Hell, if it's NOT Legion, if they choose to make some Lovecraftian connection by calling it a "Shoggoth", I'd have mad respect for them. If it turns out to be something called a "Gore Knight", I'd be really disappointed.

One question though remains: Why DID they use this picture as a certain layer for the Toy Dragon image? That's something that bothers me...
Anyway, in that Cox interview someone posted before in this thread Cox mentioned that we haven't seen all the Titan bosses yet. So here are my predictions for the remaining Titans:
1.) A giant Mech
2.) Leviathan
3.) Legion
AND/ OR that thing on the Image (maybe Zobek's final form)

So we'd have 5 Titans, though I don't consider the Siege Titan a Titan fight since you fight on him and since he doesn't have a health bar... it's more like an interactive stage. And from what we have read in some previews the Gorgon is actually a fight against the Titan! Thus we'd have to fight 4 Titans.

[Dracul_Belmont]

I heard the rely on horror interview, and I think that there is very little spoiler material. A very interesting interview. I think that Cox said just one line that does sound spoilerish, so listen to it if you want. I thought it was great.

I'd be up for both, but it's probably Alucard mode. I would be greatly surprised and a little disappointed if that wasn't the case. This new Alucard deserves to be playable.

Isn't that the way a lot of Creepypastas start off. "I found this hidden image within this data, now I keep having nightmares. Something's lurking outside and I see it out of the corner of my eye. I get phone calls from dead children and creepy emails about people who know everything I'm doing. I keep seeing this face peer in at me through the dark, white, eyeless sockes that has an abnormally large grin as if someone slit it's cheeks open..."
