Netflix has renewed its animated Castlevania series for a second season.

While the first season of the video game-inspired adaptation spans four episodes, Netflix has increased the episode count for Season 2 to eight.

Season 1 of Castlevania debuted today, July 7, on the streaming service. The animated series follows the final surviving member of the Belmont clan, who's trying to thwart the efforts of Vlad Dracula Tepe and save Eastern Europe.

Adi Shankar, the producer of this new Castlevania series, announced earlier this week that he's working on an animated series based on another popular video game franchise, Assassin's Creed.
