The Last Faith

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A dark, gothic pixel-art Metroidvania that blends Soulslike combat with sprawling interconnected exploration and plenty of weapon and build options. You fight through a decaying world ravaged by plague and a corrupt religion as Eric.

Dead Cells

Strong soundtrack

A fast, fluid 2D roguelite with Metroidvania structure, where tight, punchy combat and a huge arsenal of weapons make every run feel different. Permanent unlocks and new routes give you a real sense of progress even as you die again and again.

Castlevania: Rondo of Blood

Strong soundtrack

A classic, demanding Castlevania action platformer where you whip your way through Dracula's domain as Richter Belmont. Hidden routes, the rescuable Maria as a playable character and a superb soundtrack make it a cult favourite.

Blasphemous

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A brutal Metroidvania in gorgeous pixel art that twists Spanish Catholic iconography into a nightmarish world of guilt and penance. Tight parries, gory executions and plenty of hidden secrets define the Penitent One's journey.

Castlevania: Symphony of the Night

Strong soundtrack

The genre-defining Metroidvania sends the vampire Alucard through a sprawling gothic castle packed with secrets, loot and RPG leveling. Gorgeous sprite work and a legendary soundtrack complete the package, and the inverted castle remains one of gaming's most famous twists.
