This is a great multiplayer game when you get a group going. Stuck on PS3/Xbox. Met some cool people playing this before, and a complete package would be an insta-buy for me.

Castlevania: Harmony of Despair should have been part of the Castlevania Dominus Collection! It's one of the best offline multiplayer games I've ever played! It's a lot of fun to play with friends in the same room! The boss battle in the third stage, which takes up almost the entire map, is spectacular! This game deserved to be included in the last collection, which even uses sprites and scenarios from the three games in the Dominus Collection! But I hope Konami fixes this injustice! Castlevania: Harmony of Despair deserves to be re-released for PC so we can play with our friends, whether online or offline, which in my opinion is the best way to play!
Dropped an INCREDIBLe amount of hours into this one when i was younger. always happy to play healer with charlotte or run as fast as possible with sonic boots. Please bring it back, I regularly tell my friends about this game as one of the highlights of multipler castlevania.
Yes, it will definitely be a great addition to the game collection on the GOG platform. Step into the shadows of the hell house: Castlevania is back in all its pixel-powered 2D glory. Call upon the series' most hallowed heroes and vanquish your nemesis, Dracula! All-new multiplayer modes like 6-player Co-op and Survival have been whipped up for you, too... but enough talk. Have at it!

Ok look, hear us out. Is this the best CV game? No. Does it have problems? Yes. But by god if this isn't one of the most fun multiplayer games ever. Mixing and matching the characters and their mechanics and taking the different routes each character was allowed to take through a level was so rewarding. Plus, it was SIX PLAYER!! How many non competitive games allow you to play with six people!!! This game was awesome, and deserves a modern version with proper online multiplayer.
playing this with a bunch of friends locally was such a blast, grinding for treasure, dying to dumb traps and easy bosses and navigating the map as the screen got smaller and smaller as you moved apart gave me some great memories
This is such a unique and cool vision of what a multiplayer co-op game can be and its tragic that there is no real legal way to play it anymore. It never did numbers but it was ahead of its time honestly and I think it would do better now that online is more commonplace. Honestly playing Nightreign made me think about it again as it actually has some similar DNA. Anyways this is a hidden gem that deserves polished and a moment in the sun
Those games also need your vote!
