A lot of the new weapons, locations, and enemies already have a counterpart that functions similarly in the Dead Cells universe that fly, slash, or throw things your way. Because this game was heavily inspired and based on its crossover partner, the gameplay feels like more of the same Dead Cells, hacking, slashing, platforming, and hunting for upgrades through a procedurally generated castle. I have split impressions of Return to Castlevania. But that’s merely the beginning, as you have now awakened Dracula and will need to fight your way through the Clocktower to get a better entrypoint into Castle Dracula, to have a stab at the evil vampire lord himself in the Master’s Keep. If you manage to get through Castle Dracula, you’ll be dragged down to the Defiled Necropolis for a no-holds barred match with the first new mini-boss, Death. Following his instructions will lead you through the Castle Outskirts until you run into another familiar face, renowned half-vampire Alucard. He’s gathering assistance to help fight off the growing powers of Dracula and is in no position to be picky. Inside of the Prison Starting Zone is where you now can come across the aforementioned vampire hunter, Richter Belmont. Last, but not least, there’s a new storyline and a new mode to unlock within Castle Dracula that lets you crash through the halls as Richter Belmont. The music, by far my favorite part, boasts an alternative soundtrack of over 50 songs from the original series, while the more iconic songs, such as “Vampire Killer” and “Bloody Tears,” have been given a bit of that Dead Cells flavor to let you rock out with your goth out. Fourteen new enemies wander the halls, such as the Buer, the Bone Pillars, and Werewolves, while three new bosses await in their newly added arenas. Over a dozen new weapons are added, ranging from the Bible to Alucard’s Sword and Shield. The DLC is a barrage of Castlevania nostalgia reimagined for the Dead Cells universe.
