“Vampire Survivors: Ode to Castlevania is our third collab DLC, and our second made in collaboration with with the KONAMI team!

Vampire Survivors would have been a very different game hadn't it been influenced by Castlevania in the first place, so this is straight up the definition of a dream coming true.
This is not a standard DLC pack. This is a celebration of this historical game series, an incredible, full-circle moment in which we have invested all the energy we could muster, and then some!

As usual a huge thanks to all the fans for making this possible, and please try not to binge it when it releases: it's big. IT'S BIG.

What heroes from Castlevania will be able to resist the urge to join the Vampire Survivors in their hopeless search for a vampire?”

* 20+ characters
* 40+ new weapons between base versions and evolutions.
* 1 huge stage
* 30+ music covers
* We could tell you the exact numbers, but we don't want to scare you.

I believe this is the largest DLC so far?

 

[AJUMP23]

Looks fun.

 

[Jack Videogames]

wow that's quite the amount of content for such a price

 

[near]

I believe this is the largest DLC so far?

Yeah it looks like they've gone all out on this one.

 

[Davevil]

 

[Hookshot]

I still haven't done the Among us stuff, nor the contra one.....

 

[Punished Miku]

This has quietly turned into a $40 game.

 

[DonkeyPunchJr]

This does look really cool, but man I’m so burnt out on this game and its imitators.

 

[Lokaum D+]

 

[killatopak]

I’m knee deep in games right now through my own fault. I’m juggling my time between core keeper, halls of torment and brigador.

Halls of Torment is eating my time with this genre so it’ll take a while for me to check this out.

 

[SolidQ]

 

[MiguelItUp]

This is awesome, I'm sure they were so excited to do a Castlevania collab, can't wait!

 

[ssringo]

 

[grvg]

This is awesome, but I don't think I have it in me to play any more of it. I maxed myself out on this amazing game when it was still in it's vanilla, no expansions phase. There's only so many times I can max out weapons and spend 30 minutes watching dopamine fireworks before I snap.

That being said, it is one of my favorite retired games of all time. But it is extremely retired.

Super recommended if you are new to it or aren't burnt out.

Edit: I'll probably buy it just to support the devs

 

[Nitty_Grimes]

 

[MudoSkills]

Abso-fucking-lutely.

 

[Fabieter]

Owning this on every platform. And the content they offer for the price is actually too good. The only thing for me missing is cross progression.

 

[Blitzmangoman]

Well here we go again, my trophies are at 100%, can't wait to play this to complete everything new haha.

 

[Jack Package]

Game of the generation, and it keeps getting better!
Great trailer, too!

 

[Bloobs]

This has quietly turned into a $40 game.

Low price for the best of the best

 

[Kenneth Haight]

25 hours deep in to a crack addiction. Need to play dead space remake but can’t tear myself away from this

I have 114/221 trophies. Only 10 more for the base game platinum. Game is so addictive.

 

[Fabieter]

Low price for the best of the best

They had to do the low price because if you are looking at the videos it doesn't look as fun as it actually is.

 

[Thebonehead]

My 4090 is ready.

I'm not joking. Love this game

 

[Evil Calvin]

probably would have made more sense to release it a week or two BEFORE Halloween...not on Halloween. I tend to put spooky stuff in the rearview mirror on Nov 1st

 

[Kacho]

Day one without question. Loved the Dead Cells Castlevania DLC.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

Will get. I played through most of the content when it released on console. Didnt bother with the update or DLC. But will get this for sure.

 

[chokotoureiki]

I never played it, but I am a big fan of Castlevania, so this is a likely purchase.

 

[simpatico]

Day 1. Now the best 2 releases of 2024 are DLCs. I'll take it though.

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

easiest purchase of all time with all those characters and music.

 

[yansolo]

This does look really cool, but man I’m so burnt out on this game and its imitators.

this genre is the flavour of the month, but you can only catch lightning in a bottle once maybe twice if you're lucky. this game is still way better than all of its clones and imitators but i'm also done with it and would rather play "real" games.

 

[Gamer79]

This game is so simple, so cheap, but so fun.

I put more hours into Vampire Survivors than most AAA games

 

[DeepSpace5D]

Damn, guessing new trophies with this. Welp bring on the nausea again.

 

[Dictattor]

This is seriously one of the best game collaborations I've ever seen. Absolute day 1.

 

[Soodanim]

Day 1. Now the best 2 releases of 2024 are DLCs. I'll take it though.

Thank you, horse armour

(I agree)

 

[John Bilbo]

It's time to take out the trash!

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

great dlc, the stage is nice with all the secrets and bosses and even some sidescrolling sections, characters/weapons are cool and the new music kicks ass, but on top of that, it actually includes original compositions as well, like the insanely good heart of fire harmony of despair version.
I wonder what kind of deal they struck with konami to be able to sell this at 4 bucks, I'm guessing this is a net loss for them unless it sells a lot, no wonder the dev wrote this in the faq

Despite being so big and definitely being a big step up in production, we still have to price this fairly in the context of the other DLCs and of the base game. Normally something like this would not be sustainable; we could do this only thanks to the massive support we have received and keep receiving from the players, so we also want this to be accessible to as many fans as possible.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

Im a cheap fuck. But I'm going to buy this DLC for regular price tomorrow or on the weekend. lol

 

[Calico345]

I was lukewarm on it when I played it. It's not the game's fault, just a genre I'm not much a fan of. BUT! As a Castlevania fan, this is something I want to try and perhaps it's enough to pull me in a little more...

 

[S0ULZB0URNE]

I believe this is the largest DLC so far?

Most expensive as well.

I snagged it with the quickness.

Would buy again if they had a physical PlayStation version.

 

[Knightime_X]

The new map is massive.
I mean MASSIVE
Explored for like an hour and maybe only got 25% done?

 

[Lord Panda]

This game is the only reason why I still keep my XSX around in the living room, instead of selling it off.

 

[Nitty_Grimes]

Triple dipped, PC, XSX and PS5.

Will get to Switch version when … I can find my Switch.

EDIT: How can you misplace a Switch in its case ffs.

 

[DenchDeckard]

Buying everything for this game. Will purchase today.

 

[sigmaZ]

Definately a chocolate in my peanut butter situation

[Calico345]

I bought the DLC. I am excite

(I love that typing "dracula" into the site gif function returns the legend as the first result.)

 

[Jack Package]

This DLC is amazing. A ridiculous amount of content for £2.69, I kind of feel the devs are short-changing themselves. So much love has went into every aspect of the add on, and the doppelgänger fight switching things up like it did was an amazing surprise!
Obviously don't want to spoil it for those that haven't found it yet, but it was such a creative and clever thing to do!

 

[KungFucius]

My 4090 is ready.

I'm not joking. Love this game

Hold off for 5090, its only a few weeks most likely.

 

[Thebonehead]

Hold off for 5090, its only a few weeks most likely.

I'm ready for that too.
