About the game
Based on the classic 2D action known and loved by Castlevania fans and with 60 different levels, Grimoire of Souls will give users the opportunity to choose from one of Castlevania’s five much-loved heroes, each with unique, special abilities. These characters are, respectively, Alucard, whom we know and love from Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, Simon Belmont, the unforgettable hero of the original Castelvania, Maria Renard, the intrepid vampire wizard of Castlevania: Rondo of Blood, Charlotte Aulin, the famous witch of Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin, or Shanoa, the queen of symbols of Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia.
Players will be able to master the character that best suits their style of play if they wish, or they will be able to browse each character and choose to use the one that best suits the level in front of them. The game will also include daily/weekly missions.
The creators of the series, Ayami Kojima and Michiru Yamane, were also involved in the development of grimoire of souls. Known for his work in Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow and other Castlevania games, Kojima designed new and key characters introduced in grimoire of souls. Yamane composed the main theme of castlevania: Symphony of the Night and Genso Suikoden III, creating unforgettable melodies.
