Castlevania Season 2 is only a matter of weeks away, and to get you in the mood, Netflix has dropped the first fight from the new season online.

The series, inspired by the classic videogame series, is a dark medieval fantasy following the last surviving member of the disgraced Belmont clan, trying to save Eastern Europe from extinction at the hand of Vlad Dracula Tepes himself. Written by Warren Ellis, who exec-produces alongside Adi Shankar, Fred Seibert and Kevin Kolde, the anime was a hit for Netflix when it premiered at the start of 2018.

“Ultimately, Castlevania is a good romp that has been intelligently and lovingly produced by a cast and crew that seem to understand exactly what has made fans so passionate about the series in the first place,” we wrote in our review of Season 1. “Ellis’ writing captures the dark yet enticing world of Castlevania perfectly.”

Season 2 sees Trevor Belmont, last survivor of his house, no longer alone, as he and his misfit comrades race to find a way to save humanity from extinction at the hands of the grief-maddened Dracula.

All episodes drop on Netflix on Friday 26th October. Here’s the new video, courtesy of Netflix’s new NX Facebook page:

 

Castlevania Season 2 is available on Netflix UK, as part of an £9.99 monthly subscription.
