Warning: This news story contains spoilers for Castlevania: Lords of Shadow. Turn back now if you don’t want the ending of the game revealed to you yet.

Konami’s E3 pre-show released a teaser trailer for the upcoming Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 title, showing Gabriel Belmont decimating an entire battlefield of knights and warriors as “Dracul,” the vampire lord otherwise known as Dracula. At the end of the trailer, a new character confronted Gabriel, brandishing a sword.

Notably, the new character’s face wasn’t shown, but his long white hair was unmistakable. Based on character design, it seems to be a dead ringer for Alucard—it’s either that, or a strong lookalike character he haven’t met before.
