Attention, night crawlers and whip enthusiasts! Swedish gaming wizards Stunlock Studios are bringing a slice of Castlevania’s legendary universe to their vampiric saga, V Rising. Brace yourselves for a nostalgic bloodfest, as Legacy of Castlevania descends upon us this May 8th, initially on Steam, with the PS5 edition set to haunt later this year.
Simon Belmont Cracks His Whip in Vardoran
Gear up, gamers! The iconic vampire hunter, Simon Belmont, is storming V Rising, and he’s not here to play nice. Armed with his notorious whip and a divine arsenal, he’s on a mission to purge the vampire realm of Vardoran. Triumph over him and snag his whip, unlocking a treasure trove of combat moves that scream vampire elegance and lethality.
Build Your Own Castle of Nightmares
Legacy of Castlevania isn’t just about Belmont busting; it’s also a free ticket to vamp up your gameplay. And for those who dig deeper into their coffins, the “Legacy of Castlevania Premium Pack” awaits. This cosmetic DLC is your go-to for crafting a fortress with that signature Castlevania vibe of dark grandeur. Get creative with decorations, character skins echoing the Castlevania legends, and a skeletal mount to ride into the moonlight. Plus, set the mood with two iconic Castlevania tracks, reimagined by the maestro Aleksandria Migova.
A Dream Draped in Shadows
Rickard Frisegård, the big boss at Stunlock Studios, shared some heartwarming nerd vibes, thanking Konami for letting them mesh the Castlevania legacy with V Rising’s dark world. This crossover isn’t just a business move; it’s a fan-made tribute, a dream woven into reality, ready for you to sink your teeth into this May 8th.
