DRACULA X RONDO OF BLOOD PC ENGINE ISO PC
The original Rondo of Blood is included as unlockable content and remains largely identical to its PC Engine counterpart. While the original game featured anime style artwork, Castlevania: The Dracula X Chronicles contains new character designs by Castlevania: Symphony of the Night character designer Ayami Kojima. This mode can be played cooperatively with a second player over the PSP's Ad-Hoc wireless connection. The mode contains four courses, which differ in the set of bosses fought. "Rondo of Blood" is the title in the original Japanese versions.įirst seen in Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance, a Boss Rush mode is added. The title of Stage 8 is renamed "Bloodlines", the same title as the introduction level in the English localization of Symphony of the Night. These are fully voiced in English and Japanese, and the player can choose the language in the options menu. Small introductory cutscenes are added before boss fights. New dialogue scenes are added, and pre-existing scenes are altered or extended. After saving Annette and defeating Shaft's ghost, Dracula gains a new third form which must be defeated to obtain the true ending. This boss is moved to an alternate exit in Stage 5' if Annette has been saved. Not saving Annette forces the player to battle a vampire version of her in place of Shaft's ghost in Stage 7, which warrants a bad ending. Stage 5' is given a revamped stage layout and a brand new boss, the Hydra. The puzzles required to save Iris and Annette have been altered. Saving Tera and Iris grants the player respective items required to destroy these barriers. Two new obstacles, a barrier made of red skeletons, and a barrier made of crystal, are added to various parts of the game. The Dracula X Chronicles adds minor additions and features to the gameplay of Rondo of Blood. The game is a side-scrolling platformer rendered in 2.5D.
