Fight back against Dracula in the third exciting instalment of the highly popular Castlevania franchise!

These include Sypha the imprisoned sorceress, Grant the pirate, who is able to jump high and climb up walls, and Alucard, who is Dracula’s son but has a bone to pick with his father. With a range of diverse characters and paths available to choose from, this game boasts incredible replay value, ensuring that each playthrough is a new experience!If you own this title on your Wii, perform a system transfer from your Wii to your Wii U to receive a special upgrade price.
