Stunlock Studios has announced a new V Rising collaboration content pack from the legendary Castlevania franchise, via a new partnership with Konami.
The new “Legacy of Castlevania” content will see aspiring vampires in the survival ARPG battle Simon Belmont himself, with other content teased.
A release for the content is set for May 8th, the same day the game hits full release on Windows (via Steam). A PS5 port is planned for later in 2024. Check out our thorough and final preview for the game!
“We’re all big fans of Castlevania, so being able to actually create original Castlevania content in our game is a dream come true,” said Stunlock Studios CEO Rickard Frisegård. “I want to express a heartfelt thank you to our friends at KONAMI for the chance to bring Castlevania to the V Rising universe. This has been an opportunity for us to channel our love and effort for their games into this collaboration, and we look forward to you being able to experience it for yourself on May 8th!”
Here’s a rundown on the new content, plus a teaser trailer:
Legacy of Castlevania is coming to V Rising on May 8th!
In collaboration with Konami Digital Entertainment (KONAMI), Stunlock Studios proudly presents Legacy of Castlevania!
The mighty hero of the Belmont Clan, Simon Belmont, is here to challenge all of Vampire kind. Wielding his legendary Vampire Killer and an infamous arsenal of holy weaponry, no night stalker will be safe from his righteous crusade through Vardoran. Defeat him and unlock the secrets of a brand new weapon, the whip, adapting new combat abilities that embody the grace and precision of the deadly Vampire hunter!
All vampires will be able to face the Belmont heir to test their skills in battle, but you will also have additional opportunities to fully immerse yourself in the spirit of Castlevania. The Legacy of Castlevania Premium Pack cosmetic DLC will be available to purchase, allowing players to construct their own castles inspired by our adoration for the classic Castlevania aesthetic. Craft spellbinding castle decor, enjoy character customization options inspired by legendary Castlevania characters, and ride the new spooky skeletal mount. Set the tone with a symphony of Castlevania music in your castle, with two classic themes reimagined by V Rising composer Aleksandria Migova. It’s time to embark on a journey into darkness as V Rising arrives in its full glory on May 8th, with the free content of “Legacy Of Castlevania” and the purchasable cosmetic DLC. More details to be revealed soon!
