Like Dracula, the Castlevania series keeps resurrecting itself in new forms. If you want to play with your familiar friends like Alucard and explore a totally new path through the eponymous castle, you’ll need to unlock the Dead Cells: Return to Castlevania DLC. This extremely weird crossover adds new biomes to Dead Cells based on Dracula’s Castle, packed with enemies and classic bosses from the infamously difficult series. The DLC is available everywhere for $9.99 — this is big enough to be an expansion. Unlocking the Castlevania path through Dead Cells is both easy and easy-to-miss. We’ll explain exactly what it takes in the full guide below.
In addition to unlocking Castlevania, you can also unlock Richter as a playable character. The famous blue Belmont returns, with the ability to jump high and backflip. He doesn’t control anything like your floaty-headed hero from Dead Cells. This weird addition has to be a reference to a similar unlockable mode in Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, a game that the Dead Cells developers are clearly fans of. Unlocking Richter is a lot trickier than just reaching the castle, so be prepared for a long slog. Here’s how to get started, and how to (eventually) get Richter for yourself.
