The sequel to an 8-bit spin-off of Castelvania’s crowdfunded successorBloodstained: Ritual Of The Night, Curse Of The Moon 2’s pixellated platform-slashing is coming to Steam in just under two weeks.With an almost comically gravelly voice-over, Curse Of The Moon 2’s new trailer ditches Koji Igarashi’s live-action introduction to give you more of what you wanted - crunchy, low-resolution demon-slayers whipping, kicking and slashing down gothic beasties.Watch on YouTubeFair play, it’s mostly thesame trailer as last time, with an extra minute of footage tacked onto the end. But that extension does at least confirm that the first game’s characters Miriam, Alfred, and Gebel will be returning alongside Zangetsu, Dominique, Robert and Hachi.As opposed to Ritual Of The Night’s reimagining of fan-favourite Castlevania: Symphony Of The Night,Bloodstained: Curse Of The Moonapes the series' older, NES-bound roots.

His name is Valefor and he likes to throw around petty cash in his Scrouge McDuck money bin like an overzealous toddler splashing around in a swimming pool.
