You can also get Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night - Miriam’s Complete Cosmetic Bundle here.
Bloodstained®︎: Ritual of the Night is the FULL game experience, an exploration-focused, side-scroller action RPG packing all of the best features you've come to know and love from the Metroidvania genre into a single, content-packed game.
Play as Miriam, an orphan scarred by an alchemist’s curse which slowly crystallizes her body. In order to save herself, and indeed, all of humanity, she must battle her way through a demon-infested castle summoned by Gebel, her old friend whose body and mind has become more crystal than flesh.
WHAT'S IN THE GAME?
13 FREE DLCs via future content updates. “Speed Demon” Update containing Speed Run Mode, Boss Rush Mode and the Pure Miriam outfit available at launch!
Addictingly tight and satisfying gameplay alongside a rich new story in the gothic dark fantasy style of Koji Igarashi, the celebrated godfather of "Igavania" games.
Story cut scenes and NPC interactions fully voice acted by a star-studded cast, including actors like David Hayter, Ray Chase and Erica Lindbeck to name just a few. (Seriously, we have a lot of voice acting star power in this game, it's kinda nuts...)
Three playable characters, two of which have yet to be revealed...
Literally a metric ton of weapons and spells, which you can upgrade, level up and visually customize.
Beautiful 2.5D graphics: 3D models crafted with a lot of love and care on a 2D game environment. That means lots of cool tricks that "regular" 2D can't do...
THE FUTURE
Expect a worryingly large amount of announcements and updates, everything from updating the look of this page to the game in general. It's going to be one wild ride.

Why buy on GOG.COM?
DRM FREE. No activation or online connection required to play.
I have played and replayed this game so many times, and every return just makes me love the game more.
For context, I have platinumed the game on PS, 100%'d the game on Switch, and now I'm replaying it on PC. The game moves fast and respects your time. The platforming and exploration is so well-thought out and I adore all of the details. My only criticisms are that boss design is relatively basic and there is exactly one area that requires killing a non-boss enemy (for their shard) to progress to a new area, but I look forward to the upcoming sequel to see if they've fixed those. Otherwise, the game is just a great time and just feels like the quintessential Igavania.
I'm not going to get deep into the details, there are already too many great reviews. Just gonna say that I loved Castlevania Symphony of the Night, as well as other games that came after like Harmony of Dissonance, Aria of Sorrow, etc. Those are my favorite Castlevania games, and if you liked those too, then you are going to LOVE Bloodstained RotN. It has all those things that make those games great, and even more.
Made by the same producer that made Castlevania Symphony of the NIght and Order of Ecclesia, this is a new mythos with a mixture mechanics of both in 2.5D environment.
Much like those two games, the hints are few, and the exploring can be punishingly hard if you are used to modern hints, so be advised.
Otherwise this runs great, has great sounds and colorful visuals.
Just be warned that it's an exploration heavy action/RPG, and the best items require completing quests and item hunting, so if that's not your cup of tea, try before buying.
This game is waiting for a review. Take the first shot!
