The impact of the duel between Soldoros and Kasijas has destroyed Zelva and the Castle of the Dead.

Inside the half-sliced Castle of the Dead, Luke's creations, which were believed to have stopped functioning after his death, can still be found. How are they moving on their own? What else might be in there? A world-shaking conspiracy is about to reveal itself.

Gameplay & Progression

Destroyed Castle of the Dead's Map layout.

Upon entering the Destroyed Castle of the Dead, it's progression is very similar to that of The Oculus: The Sanctum of Resurrection, in which either you or a 4-person party's main objective is to traverse through what seems to be a extended version of Heblon's Altar by fighting off Luke's creations in various maps that have been mysteriously brought back to life by Gizel sometime after the Apostle's death. Except for Abyss Walker, the other 4 Boss Monsters, alongside the numerous items that can be found throughout the Destroyed Castle are randomized per run.

Reaching and defeating Abyss Walker will end your mission for Destroyed Castle of the Dead.
