The original inspiration – the roots of Dead Cells – was born from a shared passion for the Castlevania franchise. It opened up a world of possibilities and potential for so many games to come, including Dead Cells.
Alucard shows up too, because why not?īen Laulan, co-founder of Evil Empire and COO, said, “Like so many millions of players around the world, we are huge fans of Castlevania and remember vividly what playing it for the first time felt like. The premise of the DLC is that The Beheaded is approached by Richter Belmont when a “strange, malevolent castle” appears, and that’s basically enough to justify lots of new fighting. Return to Castlevania will feature 14 weapons and items from Castlevania, like the Vampire Killer, the Cross, and Holy Water, albeit tweaked to fit the gameplay of Dead Cells. No gameplay was shown, but it’s a pretty nuts announcement regardless. At The Game Awards 2022, Motion Twin and Evil Empire shared the animated trailer announcement for Dead Cells: Return to Castlevania, a DLC expansion for Dead Cells created in collaboration with Konami.
