More On: Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2

This gameplay video from Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 shows off the Toymaker, whom you may remember from the Castlevania: Lords of Shadow DLC called Mirror of Fate.

Like a cross between Ben Franklin and the Penguin*, the Toymaker seems like a kindly old man - until he's possessed by some blood-borne evil.  

The full video is a bit lengthy (9+ minutes) but it contains an entire boss encounter, so what better way to preview what you'll be getting yourself into should you decide to play Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2?

to learn more, follow the jump.  Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 will be out on February 25th.

*I call dibs on the concept of Ben Franklin as a Batman villain.
