A mistake persists into the release despite the feedback about Dracula's lore
In dbd bio :
He sought out the fabled Crimson Stone as a way to cheat death, but death trapped his soul inside the stone, granting him eternal life as a vampire.
On freaking Castlevania wiki itself :
Crimson Stone page :
As it turned out, Mathias Cronqvist was in the midst of re-creating the gem. He had Death absorb Walter Bernhard's soul into the stone (after Leon Belmont defeated him), thereby completing it. In doing so, he achieved his ultimate goal: to gain eternal life.
Dracula's page :
All went according to Mathias's ingenious plan; Leon went to Walter's castle to save Sara and due to a series of planned events, was able to defeat Walter. When Walter was dying, Death appeared and took his soul and granted the vampire's power to Mathias, who had materialized in the castle. It was only in his final moments that Walter realized what was happening and what Mathias's true intentions were. Due to absorbing Walter's soul, Mathias became the most powerful vampire, though the Ebony Stone eluded him, as it was destroyed in Leon and Walter's battle.
Seriously , what is so confusing here. Death did not trap his soul into the gem. Mathias had Death trap WALTER's soul into the gem. Walter was the original vampire and Mathias took his place and became known as Dracula.

No they havent, DBDs lore is about events that havent even happened in a game/video.

It is literally his bio and origin from the games. Before any DBD interaction and actual lore. DBD lore is when they tie in the character which happens in the final section of his bio. All before this is accurate story from canon.
