I think its opposite Nagumo. Victor Belmont is the new Modern Belmont (just like in resurrection he was a future belmont compared to Sonia) but this could imply that Sonia appears in the game since they are referencing Resurrection she could be a past belmont that fights Dracula. I think the castle siege takes place hundred of years later after MOF.

Yup, a new character design but the name was from a cancelled game. At least they are not using other famous Belmont character names. Thank goodness.

Here's an image of Victor from the LoS Facebook Page.

I think it was smart move honestly. I don't think Richter or Justin would have worked. Although I expect there will be references to past belmonts in the game.

[Maedhros]

It looks like fucking Ezio.

This is has a couple of more screenshots. With one hinting that you do have a boss battle with new Belmont.

What I imagined the modern Belmont "Victor" to be wearing:

Something like a sleek modern trench coat that fits in nicely with what people were wearing in the LoS epilogue.
(Also, that IS the head of CV resurrection's Victor if you were wondering).

What he is actually wearing:

An outfit that belongs in a steampunk version of an Assassins Creed game set in the 1600s...

I'm fine with how LoS Victor looks but am definitely disappointed in his outfit choice to say the least..

[Nagumo]

Aside from the hood and the bearded face this is actually a quite good design. Unlike Trevor's design there is no overuse of armour this time. 

[Trevorcard]

I actually like the beared face and I think the hood will grow on me. Got disagree on Trevor love the overuse armor. But I guess I am wondering how did he lose his eye 

[Kingshango]

Didn't see Victor coming.

I actually think he looks cool, nothing to go "Not muh Belmont" at tho, unless you hate beards. (and if so why would you?)

And the similarities to Assasins Creed are apparent, so apparent that actually called one of the screens "Belmonts Creed". 


And for the rest, seems like they're gonna be some stealth segments and enemies will be using daylight against you. Curious to see how this will work out.

I am pretty excited for Medusa fight it seems my complaints of Titan battle are being answered. You fight Medua and knocked her out and then climb her and maybe try to cut out her heads

Or

her breasts

[Trevorcard]

Dark Nemesis : So she will be more like

(click to show/hide)

Having three breasts like the mutant lady in Total Recall

If we are having a likely (Zobek) Death battle and Medusa Battle? What other classical enemy bosses would you guys like to see appear?

[Kingshango]

Oh and forget to mention before,not surprised that it slipped into next year. With LOS2 in February, Dark Souls 2 a month later and the Q4 2013 backlog, I'll putting next gen on hold for a little while longer.

[Shiroi Koumori]

Since we will be getting battles with Death and Medusa, they might as well add in other creatures that serve as the main pillars of Castlevania like Frankenstein. Oh wait... Dont tell me that the titans represent Frankie?

Victor Belmont = Rejected by the Brotherhood of Assassins, gets to join the Brotherhood of Light instead. /lol
