About the game
Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon 2 renders a dark, solemn world in 8-bit style: side-scrolling 2D action with graphics that feel both nostalgic and new. Supervised by IGA (Koji Igarashi), its grand story unfolds across multiple episodes that follow the first Curse of the Moon.
You once again play Zangetsu, a demon hunter from the East who despises demons and alchemists, and storm a castle crawling with monsters. The people Zangetsu meets along the way join as playable characters, and every new ally opens up more ways through each stage.
The sequel adds local two-player co-op with two controllers, so you can combine the cast’s abilities and clear stages together.
