Castlevania is one of gaming’s most flagrant repeat offenders, with its years-old recycled sprites, tired rehashes of old ideas and cleverly placed veneers of fan service to throw us off the scent of lazy design. It’s also been in dire need of a real shot of life for some time now. From Simon to Richter Belmont, and even as the heroes started getting a little androgynous (here’s looking at you, Alucard), the franchise has been fixated on basically one thing: dudes playing with their whips in dark, musty rooms. The Castlevania series has always been a boys club.
