I was pretty sure that Dave would carry it, Ana--it's just that ordering now would make it seem as though the game was almost here!!

Do you get the general impression that I'm a fan of the Dracula series...think rotfl

Note: The Adventure Company will be publishing Dracula: Origin in North America. Focus Home Interactive will be publishing the game in Europe, and will use various distributors in Europe to put the game on store shelves there. We don't have a release date yet for the UK version.

Screenshots look really good. Look forward to this one.
I noticed this game listed on Kheops Studio's website as one of their games but nothing from Adventure Company indicates they developed it. Do you know if they did?

Birddog -- there are two Dracula games releasing this spring. This game, Dracula: Origins is being developed by Frogwares. The other, Dracula 3: The Path of the Dragon, is being developed by Kheops.

The Adventure Company is publishing Dracula: Origin and has not (as far as I know) had any hand in its development.

Is this Dracula the original game ie Dracula The last sanctuary redone or a completely new game? Is this Van Helsing originally Jonathon Harker with only a name change?
