This is one of the greatest extensions to Dead Cells, and is a stunning tribute as well; this dlc pays homage to classic moments and weapons, as well as characters, from the beloved series, mainly taking inspiration from one of the grandfathers of the metroidvania genre, Castlevania: Symphony OF The Night. Without going too far into spoiler territory, there are two new bosses as well as 2 new biomes to add some awesome variety to your run, and you can go to 2 of the Castlevania biomes in a single run now, thanks to a recent update. In addition, you can unlock weapons from the series, as well as cosplay as various characters from the series, including Simon and Trevor Belmont as well as Alucard and more! This was a welcome addition to this game and makes a deep game even more so; if you like Dead Cells, do yourself a favor; get the "Medley Of Pain" bundle (available on Steam) so you can enjoy the complete game, with all of the biomes, weapons and cosmetics that you can unlock over the course of the game; playing it any other way isn't the full experience, and I would recommend this game and all its DLC wholeheartedly to anyone who's looking for an amazing combination between the rogue-lite and metroidvania genres. Don't delay; get it today! And either way, have an awesome day!
