A new patch for the Sega Saturn version of Castlevania: Symphony of the Night just dropped, and it seems we might finally have a definitive way to play the original Metroidvania classic in English with all its bonus features and no compromises.
Symphony of the Night was an instant classic when it launched in 1997, revamping the once-linear platformer series with an open-ended map that seemed to take heavy cues from Nintendo's Metroid series. This would set the Castlevania formula for years to come - a formula that would, eventually, come to be known as the 'Metroidvania' and inspire entire generations of indie developers.
