The upcoming “Ode to Castlevania” DLC for Vampire Survivors is an exciting addition for both fans of the game and enthusiasts of the Castlevania series. Set to release on October 31, this expansion will introduce over 20 new characters from the Castlevania universe. Among these characters are the iconic Belmonts and popular heroes like Jonathan and Charlotte. The Belmont family members will stand out with their powerful whips in battle.

Developer Poncle aims to enrich the Vampire Survivors experience by offering players more options with the new content. The DLC will add over 40 new weapons, including eight different whips, elemental magic, and familiar weapons like Alucard’s sword. Players will also have the chance to defeat enemies using new projectiles, such as javelins. Additionally, new powers known as “Glyphs” will be introduced, diversifying the combat dynamics.
One of the most noteworthy features of the DLC is the largest map in Vampire Survivors history. This expansive and detailed map will give players the opportunity to explore iconic locations from Castlevania. The map will evoke nostalgic moments while also presenting challenging areas filled with new enemies. This way, players will experience a blend of familiar elements and fresh innovations.
A new weapon selector system will also be added to the game. This feature will allow players to choose the starting weapon for each character. For example, by selecting the “Morning Star,” you can customize the starting weapon of a Belmont character. This system will add strategic depth, enabling players to better reflect their playstyle.
The price of the DLC is set at just $3.99/€3.99/£2.99, making it an incredibly attractive offer for those seeking new content. Additionally, some quality-of-life improvements for the game are also on the way. These changes will be detailed in a forthcoming Poncle YouTube broadcast.
The “Ode to Castlevania” DLC will enhance the content of Vampire Survivors while paying tribute to a beloved series, marking an exciting period for players. We can’t wait to dive into this new adventure on October 31. With this DLC, your Vampire Survivors experience is about to reach a whole new level!
