Vampire Survivorsintroduces a new chapter called Ode to Castlevania, which comes as a love letter to the beloved series that inspired the setting of Vampire Survivors itself. But it’s not a mere homage; this DLC brings a new stage where you can play as one of the many Castlevania protagonists, each one with their weapon.
However, unlocking these characters is not an easy task, and from Leon Belmont to Soma Cruz, each generation of vampire hunter has its requirements before you can freely play as any of them. Here’s all you need to know about it!
