This collection not only has only the five Darkstalkers Arcade games, but it is also the first time that
Vampire Hunter 2: Darkstalkers' Revenge (1997) and
Vampire Savior 2: The Lord of Vampire (1997) were released outside of Japan.
Darkstalkers 3 (1997), originally known as Vampire Savior in the arcades (which would retain that name in this games' release) was the game that the two aforementioned games' gameplay elements derived from. The three would later have their gameplay elements combined together for the PS1 home console version of Savior, but for this collection all three games will remain as separate entries as they are based off the original arcade versions. However, because of this the previous translated material in both of the previous home port releases of the aforementioned PS1 port and
Darkstalkers Chronicle: The Chaos Tower (2004) which were released internationally, naturally the material from the original arcade versions of Hunter 2 and Savior 2 would remain untranslated.
