The latest Castlevania collection is truly excellent

A must-have for fans.

It includes a trilogy of games from the Nintendo DS era that show designer Koji Igarashi arguably at the height of his powers: the experiences combine smooth, satisfying action with worlds that are intricate labyrinths to be mastered slowly over time. By default, the Dominus Collection — which includes Dawn of Sorrow, Portrait of Ruin, and Order of Ecclesia and is available on PlayStation, Switch, Xbox, and PC — displays the games as shown in the screenshot above. Including it in this collection is therefore a surprising choice but also one that is very welcome because, in addition to the stodgy original, you also get a full-on remake that spruces up the graphics and tweaks the design and difficulty to make it actually fun to play.
