After leaked images hit the web and an Xbox Live malfunction delayed their arrival, two DLC characters were finally released yesterday for Castlevania Harmony of Despair. The new hunters joining the battle are Yoko Belnades and Julius Belmont from Castlevania Dawn of Sorrow. Each one costs 240 Microsoft points ($3 USD).
Yoko is a descendant of Sypha from Castlevania III who wields a wimpy weapon but casts powerful fire, ice and lightning spells. Julius, as a member of the Belmont clan who appear in nearly every Castlevania game, uses a whip along with traditional weapons from the series (throwing knifes, crosses, and so on). He can whip in eight directions and swing from hooks like Simon did in Super Castlevania IV.
