Castlevania Requiem, a collection that brings Castlevania classics Symphony of the Night and Rondo of Blood to PlayStation 4, is available today, but one of those games might not be the same game you remember from the original PlayStation era.

The version of Castlevania: Symphony of the Night included in Requiem is based on the 2007 re-release for PlayStation Portable. That means the game features an updated script and new voice overs; the cheesy translations of the PlayStation original are gone. In other words, you won’t hear Dracula’s infamous “What is a man? A miserable little pile of secrets.” and other so-bad-they’re-good lines when Richter Belmont confronts him in the game’s opening scenes. If that’s a deal-breaker for you, well, stick to the version from 1997 (or the Xbox 360 port of that game).
