Ode to Castlevania DLC – Destructoid

The new Ode to Castlevania DLC for Vampire Survivors has arrived, with over 20 new characters to unlock. There are a lot of specific rules, so we’ve made this guide to help clear the air on what you’ll need to find your favorite Castlevania characters.

The DLC has a massive map, and there are a lot of places to go. As you defeat bosses, you’ll unlock warp points that are persistent. These will allow you to hop to specific bosses and areas of the map faster in subsequent playthroughs.

There are bosses that certain characters need to kill to unlock more content. We’ve created a map below with the locations of these specific bosses. Make sure to check which character needs to defeat them in the table under that.
