What Is A Man? A Miserable Little Pile of Secrets!
The bloodsuckers are back. While the Castlevania has long since had multiple entries that can be considered excellent games, there are two that often rise to the top when it comes to the position of “best game.” Those would be the awesome Rondo of Blood and the pure perfection that is Symphony of the Night. As it happens, PS4 owners are in for a treat as Sony is giving theses classics a second chance at life with an exclusive release!
According to an article on GameSpot –
“Konami has announced Castlevania Requiem, a new bundle that brings two of the best entries in the series to PlayStation 4. Releasing exclusively for Sony’s console on October 26, Castlevania Requiem will have Castlevania: Symphony of the Night and Rondo of Blood in one package. In Europe, the bundle will be available for €19.99, and Konami has said pricing details in other territories will be revealed soon.
‘Both games are the originals emulated for the PlayStation 4, with several updates that take advantage of the new hardware,” Sony says on the PlayStation Blog. “This includes 4K/1080p upscaling, multiple high resolution backgrounds, different rendering options such as smoothing and full Trophy support.’
October 26 is going to be a pretty packed day for Castlevania fan as, along with the launch of Castlevania Requiem, Netflix will release Season 2 of the animated Castlevania series on that day.”
Given how influential the likes of Symphony of the Night has been with modern Metrovania hits such as Hollow Knight and Dead Cells, seeing the original in all of it’s glory is sure to not only bring the nostalgia, but also serve as a reminder of why Alucard’s dark crusade against his father stands as a true OG of classic gaming.
