Inti Creates and the publisher PQube have announced the details for the sequel to last year’s excellent Castlevania homage, Gal Guardians: Demon Purge titled Gal Guardians: Servants of the Dark, and also provided the date when we can expect to have the game in our hands in the near future.
Servants of the Dark promises to not only bring more of its cheeky gothic horror anime adventures into the new game but also states that this sequel will be a full Metroidvania-style game that’s closer to Symphony of the Night and other later titles, with a full map and exploration, unlike the old-school Castlevania: Rondo of Blood-style that the first Gal Guardians game featured.
Just like the first game, Servants will also have full co-op for the whole campaign, making it one of a short list of Metroidvania games to feature multiplayer for the entire experience, also adding online play to the co-op mode, which the first game didn’t have.
Servants has two new main characters, with different playstyles than the girls from Demon Purge, with fully upgradeable stats and abilities, offering lots of new gameplay possibilities between them.
The digital release for the game is due out on March 27th on all the major platforms, with details about physical editions for Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 5 coming soon after.
Stay tuned for our review when Gal Guardians: Servants of the Dark launches in a few months. Don’t forget to check out the reveal trailer below:
