    Just in case anyone’s wondering (and/or concerned), this should be the only paid DLC the game ever gets. It was once an exclusive to backers of the game, and sells for $9.99 on other platforms.

    2 months and nobody has asked about getting past the spike hall of death yet, I’m impressed. Took me days to figure it out without cheating

    Man...
    From Castlevania SoTN I knew it had to be an armor, but I was kinda stuck on the map and had to use the YouTube card... Big ups to you since you've found it yourself!

    So finally beat this one, sitting on 100% map completion, all shards collected & crafted. Became way too OP, and I'm totally fine with it. Probably gonna do NG+ and boss rush too, I need to use all these things properly since most of them unlocked in the late late game.

    ERMAHGAWD! Zangetsu DLC! :D

    No clue if it's paid or just part of the update as I'm still downloading it, but yo, we could potentially see Bloodstained on mobile become equal to its console brethren before Dead Cells does. Crazy!

    EDIT: Same as it's console counterpart. Free update.

    Nice! Looking forward to the other modes as well - the retro one in specific - but also for the game to be fully compatible with the controller. I thought that this had been reportedly fixed already but at least on my end with a Dual Shock 4 I cannot open the menu or navigate them in-game.

    Thanks for the heads up.

    Am I just missing an option somewhere to hide the on screen controls when you have a controller connected?

    Same here. Looks like there’s an issue with 16.1.

    Is it playable on iPhone 15 Pro (iOS 17.1.2), or is it crashing?

    My guess is that it’s still crashing, since it hasn’t been updated. But I’ll check when I get to WiFi.

    Update: Yep, still borked. I emailed NetEase for info, but I’m not holding my breath — the game is not even on their website.

    Considering it didn’t work, that’s a good thing.

    I’m glad. Bunch of complete idiots. Game didn’t work for ages. Sent them tweets saying their game didn’t work and nothing

    it was on the App Store for ages and didn’t work. Just a joke

    I wouldn't expect anything from a publisher focused on the free-to-play market. It was not worth it for them to spend resources towards it because it probably didn't make them any money in comparison to the rest of their catalogue.

    Yeah i do get that, but why didnt they withdraw it ages ago. Its been sat in the app store for ages and it just doesnt work ! Hope any new customers got their money back asap. I couldnt as it was too long ago since i bought it

    But yeah thats how it is, if a premium game doesnt sell enough then it'll disappear. Still sad when premium games dont do well, you read it here all the time, people wanting 78 reviews for a £1.99 game before they 'risk' buying it or waiting for a sale. This is why we get freemium crap. I love castlevania games, that was going to be one of the main reasons i get Apple Arcade. Shame about this game

    When i saw this thread had been bumped i thought its news about an update for it to fix it !
