From the site:
If Netflix's record-breaking Castlevania series has you jonesing for a fix of gothic Belmont-on-vampire action, well, you're out of luck. The last entry in the storied franchise was 2014's Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2, and the last traditional, 2D Castlevania installment, Castlevania: The Adventure ReBirth, launched all the way back in 2009. Despite the animated series' success, Konami doesn't seem to have any more Castlevania projects on the horizon.
Thankfully, longtime Castlevania producer Koji Igarashi has you covered. Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night isn't an official Castlevania game, but it might as well be. Like Castlevania, Bloodstained stars a cursed protagonist (Miriam, a young alchemist who's slowly turning to crystal) who explores a spooky castle filled with demons and secrets. As you explore, you'll find items and unlock skills that'll help you reach previously inaccessible areas of the castle in your quest to find the summoner Gebel, who holds the key to lifting Miriam's curse—and who has been completely corrupted by the forces of evil.
According to hands-on reports, you'll amass a wide array of weapons and face all kinds of monstrous foes in your journey, while robust RPG-like levelling and crafting systems will ensure that Bloodstained never gets old. And yes, while Bloodstained is a Kickstarter-backed game, don't let recent disappointments like Mighty No. 9 and Yooka-Laylee turn you off: despite previous promises, Igarashi and his crew recently delayed the game until 2018 in order to make sure Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night lives up to its potential. "At the end of the day," Igarashi says, "I want to go with the quality. This is important to me."
