Get ready to sink your teeth into some classic Castlevania action, fellow gamers! Limited Run Games has just announced an incredible physical collection that’s sure to get vampire hunters everywhere reaching for their wallets. The Castlevania Dominus Collection brings together three beloved DS titles along with a reimagined arcade classic, all in one blood-curdling package.
Here’s what’s included in this unholy assembly:
- Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow (2005)
- Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin (2006)
- Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia (2008)
- Haunted Castle Revisited (remake of the 1987 arcade game)
These games represent some of the best 2D Castlevania experiences ever created, now enhanced with modern features like rewind, save states, and never-before-seen artwork. As a longtime fan of the series, I’m particularly excited to revisit Dawn of Sorrow and its soul-collecting mechanics.
But wait, there’s more! Limited Run is offering three tantalizing editions for collectors:
- Standard Edition ($34.99): Game + booklet
- Classic Edition ($69.99): Adds poster, soundtrack CD, and slick silver box
- Ultimate Edition ($199.99): The whole vampire-slaying kit and caboodle, including a light-up shadowbox, hand-drawn maps, and even a Grand Cross lamp!
Pre-orders open on September 13th and run through October 13th, exclusively at limitedrungames.com. The collection will be available for Nintendo Switch, PS5, and Xbox Series X.
As someone who missed out on the DS Castlevania titles back in the day, I’m thrilled to have another chance to experience these classics, this time with modern amenities such as rewind, save states and many more. The inclusion of Haunted Castle Revisited is an unexpected treat that should offer a fascinating look at the series’ arcade roots.
