While there’s been a steady rollout ofadditional modes and contentforBloodstained: Ritual of the Nightand most of it is has been pretty alright, I would definitely still be down for a sequel as well. (Full disclosure: I backed the firstBloodstainedKickstarter.) Honestly, theCurse of the Moonside games that have come out over the years have already been a really great way to explore that world and also get some old-schoolCastlevaniagameplay in my life.
Seems like 505 Games and Artplay are setting some expectations here, though. This is at least good news forBloodstainedfans who want the series to continue on, as well asCastlevaniafans eager to see its legacy endure.
