As it turns out, those leaked photos for the first batch of Castlevania: Harmony of Despair add-ons were legitimate. Shocking, I know. The first piece of paid content is a pyramid level based on Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin. Yeah, it’s even got that super annoying boss, Ashtarte.
The level itself has been dubbed “Beauty, Desire, Situation Dire.” Uh … moving on then! Unfortunately, Konami did what many of us had feared and totally expected: they priced the map at $5.
Konami also mentioned that DLC containing three new characters (Julius, Maria, and Yoko) would be available “soon.” No word yet on how much the new characters will set you back.
The new map is available now, if you haven’t moved on to newer games and are willing to stomach the premium fee.
