The brand new collection has been somewhat a success with two spin-off entries and a ton of acclaim from followers and critics, alike. A sequel has been gestating for a while, however sadly one of many key staffers from the primary recreation, Shūtarō Īda, gained’t be capable to proceed on with the undertaking.
私、カレー小僧、カレー仙人ことSHUTAROはガンと診断され闘病生活を始める事となりました。Bloodstainedの続編は既に私のほうで話、ゲームなどの構想は出来ております。今後は分担して引き継いでもらいます。
応援よろしくお願いいたします。

Introduced by way of his X account, Īda says that he has been identified with most cancers and, thus, gained’t be capable to work on Bloodstained 2. He mentioned the next in regards to the state of affairs:
“I, Shutaro, also called Curry Boy and Curry Sage, have been identified with most cancers and have now begun my battle with the illness. I had already began discussing the sequel to Bloodstained and I’ve numerous concepts for the sport. Any further, I’ll hand over this work to others. Thanks in your help.”
For his half, Igarashi mentioned this about Īda’s departure:
“Up till now, the DS [Castlevania] collection and Bloodstained have been produced primarily by director Shutaro. They’ll really be referred to as his works. It’s a nice blow that he’s stepping away from the undertaking, however we’ll do our greatest to make up for this. We hope that he’ll get better quickly so we are able to work collectively once more.”
It’s a very unhappy flip of occasions, to say the least, and we sincerely want one of the best for Īda right now. We hope that he beats the illness and is ready to sooner or later return to the world of online game growth.
