GetsuFumaDen, which is kinda like Castlevania's lesser known cousin that stayed in Japan looks like it got a great new addition. store.steampowered.com/app/1323470/GetsuFumaDen_Undying_Moon/I haven't played it yet but I got the deluxe edition and it also comes with the original game. Unfortunately it's not on GOG. Also stay away from the bundle with the Castlevania Advance Collection on PC. Consoles versions should be good, but Konami was a habit of totally half-assing old emulation on PC. Check out the reviews. I did grab the Castlevania Anniversary Collection which seems they didn't mess up the PC edition as badly though there are complaints in reviews since that's only $4. GetsuFumaDen Undying Moon is also on sale and I think the sales end tomorrow.

Finally got around to playing this and unfortunately found out it's a Roguelite and not as good as Dead Cells. Didn't die until the second boss and then found out oh crap I'm back at the beginning which was really disappointing. Haven't played since. The stages are somewhat Metroidvania-ish, though it's still just Roguelite type stage progression.
The art style is amazing and it's somewhat fun to play, but Dead Cells is just a plain better Roguelite (with actual Castlevania stages!). They should have made Getsu Fuma Den: The Undying Moon just normal stage progression without the back to the beginning BS. People say it's really short but really grindy to improve your stuff through repeated replays, so apparently the game is short on actual content.
All that said, there's some real major bullshit Konami pulled. It requires an internet connection to play single player. So don't give them any money for this as long it stays that way.

Original Getsu Fuuma Den was pretty fun, but a bit too easy and repetitive. I don't know about this remaster. I got it on some Steam sale years ago and I have never touched it since
