I'm curious as well since before the trailer I was under the impression that Glaciem and Igneas were akin to Light/Shadow magic in the first game. I don't know if Alucard will actually physically wield the Void Sword while he uses the Chaos-infused Crissaegrim in a separate slot. I also wonder if Alucard will still keep his Void/Chaos powers after putting back the relics to where they belong, or if his powers are separate from the power-ups he gives back to Dracul.

Anyway, I'm just hoping that Alucard gets to access some of his MoF abilities like the Demonic Wings, Shadow Claws, Wolf Form (which looks to be replaced by Wolf Within unfortunately) and Mist. It's unlikely, but seeing the Wolf Form wielding Crissaegrim while supercharged with Chaos/Shadow Magic would be so cool. I was even hoping Alucard would find his Light/Shadow medallions from MoF, but that would have made his vampiric abilities redundant I suppose.

Actually, Wolf form is replaced by Igneas.

Consider this: Mist form and Wolf Form in MoF were basically just Light/shadow magic. Mist form regained health, and Wolf form was literally just a power up. You still used the whip, and did all of alucard's other shit. you just hit harder.
Laura and Gabriel arrive in the deepest cave of the castle and... they find IGA.

I should clarify. I know that the function of the Mist/Wolf form was a vampiric twist on Light/Shadow magic. What I meant was that rather than manifesting a Wolf form as a damage boost, we're getting Igneas to perform that function and the quadrupedal animal wolf as a different wolf ability altogether.

Im really pretty pumped for this DLC. Im replaying the game now and its much better now that Ive come to terms with the ending. The gameplay is superb. Its true that it feels like a proper 3Dizzle SotN.

Alucard with this gameplay and no stealth? Nocturnal emissions.

Spectral wolf > Mist
Bat forom > Dracula platforming

Why was this not the main game?

This looks so much better than the main game it is ridiculous. It's almost as if Alvarez was busy ruining the campaign and this team was working with common sense at hand

Alucard has better powers than Dracula, his wolf form would have been extra useful for Agreus.

Also, his helm splitter looks like a elbow drop.

Yeah no doubt this DLC was definitely outsourced.

If so, I think we have a winner.

Is this open world as well? Or is it linear or only limited to certain places.

That wolf form reminds me a lot the Soul Splitter ability from Death in Darksiders II.

This DLC looks good :P

instead of "revelations," it should be titled "what could have been"
