The DLC will have 51 Castelvania songs, 14 iconic weapons (including the throwing axes, the Vampire Killer whip, and holy water), 20 outfits, a whole new enemy roster, three bosses, and a new storyline. That’s a lot of Castlevania.
You’ll get to explore the innards of Dracula’s gothic castle which will be filled with all sorts of new ghosties and ghoulies for you to brawl with. Ritcher and Alucard will be allies throughout your journey, helping you navigate the castle’s maze of corridors and lending your their weapons.
