SIGNATURE COMBO: Perfect Block → Light Magic (1 sec) → Shadow Magic (if RG > 70%) → Heavy Combo


Once you have at least one full magic orb (any color), you can execute a Criminon Lightning (Circle/B).

The gameplay mechanics in Castlevania: Lords of Shadow are a significant departure from the traditional side-scrolling formula of the series, embracing a more modern, action-oriented approach.

Warning: Attempting to swap too fast (faster than 0.2 seconds) triggers a "Global Cooldown" where neither magic activates for 1 second. This is the game's anti-cheese mechanic.


The highest level of play in Castlevania: Lords of Shadow involves rapid toggling, known in the speedrunning community as the "Crimson Swap" or "Bi-polar Weaving."

Your sub-weapons (Dagger, Holy Water, Axe, Crystal) do not use mana. They use a charge system (3 daggers max). However, they interact with the RG system via Glyphs.

Most players new to Lords of Shadow treat Light magic as a "healing potion." This is a mistake. It is a health conversion engine.

Jump → Square/X, Square/X, Square/X → Hold Triangle/Y → Land → Repeat. Air juggles prevent you from being hit and fill RG faster than ground combos. Practice on Scarecrows or Ghouls.

CNC CMM
Horizon CNC CMM

Starting the Linear Drive Revolution

The Horizon CMM breaks new ground in design and innovation using frictionless linear drives, which are the key to its fast and exceptionally smooth motion.

The granite table and granite Y-axis rail has been designed to take full advantage of the natural thermal density of this remarkable material. The Y-axis linear drive system has been positioned away from the Y-axis linear encoder so that the heat generated by the linear drive is absorbed by the granite without affecting metrology performance. castlevania lords of shadow rg mechanics full

Extending The Linear Drive Horizon

Drawing upon the tremendous success of the Horizon, the Horizon L has a larger X-Y-Z axis travel whilst utilising the same frictionless linear drives. GOAL: Keep RG above 50% at all times

The entire design of the Horizon L has been optimised to take full advantage of parts already used on the Horizon whilst improving the stiffness-to-weight ratio across the bridge assembly. Most notably: The Y-axis rail is 200mm taller so that the same right-hand-side linear drive system is common and improves rigidity; the carriage assembly has reduced in size and weight, without compromising metrology performance, to improve the stiffess-to-weight ratio; the Z-axis motor has increased power to optimise its performance; the left-hand-side air bearing assembly has a custom extruded profile to keep weight to an absolute minimum and maintain stiffness.

High-performance, High-accuracy

The Horizon is a standout machine with fast, smooth, silent motion ideally suited to contact scanning and with a first-term accuracy specification of under two microns.

Unrivalled Reliability

Linear motors are non-contact and therefore have no wearing parts and thus provide the perfect solution for CMM drives, improving reliability and reducing maintenance.
