Stake your claim! Castlevania: SOTN achievements list

If there’s a reason why the Xbox 360 people call them ‘achievements’, it’s probably because some of them are pain-stake-ingly tough to complete. Some of them might even suck the life out of you because you get so caught up in the game. Needless to say, the achievements for Konami‘s Castlevania: Symphony of the Night will be no exception.

The upcoming Xbox Live Arcade version of SOTN will have 12 achievements, totalling 200 points. The simple ones will consist of consecutive perfect kills and acquiring in-game specials, but some of the tougher ones involving complete exploration and mastery of the game.

If you’re gravely in need of more achievement points, then you’ll be hard pressed to find yourself a worthier opponent, and a better game, to battle against than this.
