We tried something a little different this time and made the video in 4K, hope you like it!
You can't spell \"Metroidvania\" without some of the letters from \"Castlevania: Symphony of the Night!\"
There aren't too many games that lend their namesake to entire video game genres, but Castlevania: Symphony of the Night is one of these truly special, iconic classics. Dracula's Castle presents an enormous side-scrolling open world to explore, in a method similar to Super Metroid hence the genre title. In Symphony of the Night, the protagonist, Dracula's son Alucard, will have to explore it inside and out, upside and down (literally) before being able to solve the mystery of what happened to the fallen hero Richter Belmont.
This theme is the soundtrack for the player's first impression of Dracula's Castle -- huge, epic, and filled with zombies, monsters, mythological creatures, and especially vampires to defeat. I arranged this theme for the GameBrass with two inspirations: 1. the grand sense of awe inspired from one's first impression of gazing upon the enormous castle, and 2. the badass sensation felt from coming in and slaying some demons!
