Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night Review | The best Castlevania game to date

By Jason Faulkner

When you hear the word “derivative” used to describe a game, it’s usually a bad thing. A sequel that’s too close to its predecessors or a title that strays too close to its peers tends to be derided as lacking originality. However, in Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night‘s case, its similarity to Castlevania: Symphony of the Night is the best thing about…

  • Amazing gameplay and tight controls make this game a pleasure to play.
  • Extensive equipment system allows a ton of build customization.
  • Captures the elements that made Symphony of the Night a classic while not being too close of a copy.
  • Awesome soundtrack by Michiru Yamane.
  • 2.5D graphics can be a little bland.
