Konami has announced that its adventure-based Castlevania franchise will get a fighting game entry exclusively for the Wii. Dubbed Castlevania Judgment, the game is due out this Fall, having several generations of the vampire-slaying Belmont family against their foes in 3D combat.

As expected, it will feature support for motion-sensing controls and online multiplayer. The game will also interface with the upcoming traditional DS entry – Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia – to unlock unspecified bonus content.

Few details on the game were provided, though it was mentioned that players will be able to make use of environmental weapons along with the series’ usual whips and swords; characters will also be able to set traps and make use of monsters.

“We wanted to take this addition to the signature Konami franchise in a direction that really sets it apart from the previous Castlevania titles in the series,” said Konami marketing VP Anthony Crouts. “The Wii Remote and Nunchuk capabilities, along with the iconic characters, make this game the ideal entry point into the fighting game genre.”
