This pack allows players to indulge in their Castlevania nostalgia while still enjoying the dynamic gameplay of V Rising. It offers a plethora of new cosmetics, enabling you to adopt the classic Vampire franchise’s iconic aesthetics. The pack includes five unique armor pieces that can be crafted in-game once the tailor bench is unlocked. The armor set, which is purely cosmetic, features Alucard’s regalia and can be worn at any level of your Vampire journey. Additionally, the pack offers three unique shapeshifting form variants that allow players to traverse the open world in the guise of the Soul of the Wolf, Maria Renard, or the Flea Man. The pack also includes a variety of Castlevania-themed decor items to adorn your castle, including a coffin, throne, wallpapers, stairs, and a blood fountain, among others. In the spirit of Castlevania, the pack also features several statues of iconic characters and creatures from the franchise. To add to the excitement, the pack includes a unique undead mount, Rowdain’s famed skeletal steed, for you to ride into battle. It also introduces four new hairstyles, the Lecarde sisters and two Succubus variants. To top it all off, the pack unlocks two classic Castlevania music tracks, reimagined by V Rising composer Aleksandria Migova, that can be played with the Music Box in your castle. The items are unlocked as equivalent tiers of items are made available.
