Due to potential limited memory issues, only the classic characters Huitzil, Pyron, and Donovan Baine were excluded from this game. However they would be included in the later upgraded dual release of Vampire Hunter 2: Darkstalkers' Revenge (1997) and Vampire Savior 2: The Lord of Vampire (1997) (though Baby Bonnie Hood, Lilith Aensland, Q-Bee, and Jedah Doma were absent from the former and J. Talbain, Sasquatch, and Rikuo were absent from the latter) as well as the later home console release versions of both this game and Darkstalkers Chronicle: The Chaos Tower (2004) that would use all 18 characters.
