Castlevania MoF blends 2D and 3D viewpoints and has yet to determine if it's just as good or even better than the DS/GBA 2D styled Castlevanias. However, a part suggests that this game will be delayed to 2013 in Europe. This is part of a press release from Konami in Gamescom:
Well, quite disappointing, especially if the other regions are launching this fall.

Konami’s resurrection of the Castlevania series continues, as the breath-taking Castlevania: Lords of Shadows series heads to Nintendo 3DS in 2013 with Castlevania: Lords of Shadow – Mirror of Fate. Developed by Mercury Steam and acting as a prequel to the forthcoming Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2, the Nintendo 3DS game follows Trevor and Simon Belmont as they enter the shadow-laden castle of series villain, Dracula.
Well, quite disappointing, especially if the other regions are launching this fall.
