Trailer: Dead Cells’ Castlevania crossover gets another surprise with playable Richter

One of the iconic series’ greatest heroes is coming along with Dead Cells: Return to Castlevania. Players will be able to crack that whip as Richter.

Whip it good

Available only in a secret level located somewhere deep in the unwavering dark of Dracula’s castle, players will be able to play Richter Mode, which lets them control the age-old Castlevania protagonist for a nostalgia trip that hits harder than the Vampire Killer. Use Richter’s classic moveset inspired by Castlevania: Symphony of the Night and whip the undead out of shape. 

Motion Twin press release

Along with seeing the debut of Richter, this new trailer shows off a lot more of The Beheaded in action as he makes his way through Dracula’s castle. That’s in addition to the returning Castlevania ‘heart’ pickups, which will serve as ammo for some of the expansion’s weaponry, a Medusa boss fight, and the promise that exploring the castle will be something that players will want to do. Wall-meat ahoy? Possibly.

Dead Cells: Return to Castlevania lands on Xbox, PlayStation, and the PC this March the 6th.
