Castlevania: Dominus Collection brings together a trilogy of highly regarded Nintendo DS games for the first time on home consoles. Previously DS exclusive games, the collection contains Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow, Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin and Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia. All three are fantastic, varied experiences with some absolutely beautiful pixel art, along with each of them having unique elements that set them apart from other games in the series.
As an added bonus, the Castlevania: Dominus Collection also contains 1987 title, Haunted Castle, which brought the Castlevania series to arcades for the first time, in a newly updated edition: Haunted Castle Revisited.
I was going to “say $60 for re-releases of several older DS games doesn’t seem that amazing”, but then I realized that I was looking at the price for the bundle below it, which apparently includes all of:
The games in this bundle:
Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow
Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin
Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia
Haunted Castle Revisited
Haunted Castle
Plus:
Castlevania: Circle of the Moon
Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance
Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow
Castlevania: Dracula X
Castlevania
Castlevania II Simon’s Quest
Castlevania III Dracula’s Curse
Super Castlevania IV
Castlevania The Adventure
Castlevania II Belmont’s Revenge
Castlevania Bloodlines
Kid Dracula
That’s…actually pretty darn good too, if you enjoy Metroidvanias.
I do kind of wish that they’d figured out some sort of way to do higher-resolution graphics, but the games themselves ain’t bad.
To save a click 😁
