TL;DR (2-3 Sentence Summary)
Konami Digital Entertainment will officially release the 2D action-adventure game 'Castlevania: Belmont's Curse', co-developed with Evil Empire and featuring production participation from Motion Twin, on October 15. This new title is set in Paris, France, in 1499, 23 years after the events of the popular series entry Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse.

Look, let's be honest: Konami Digital Entertainment is finally pulling the curtain back. They’ve teamed up with Evil Empire—with a helping hand from Motion Twin—to bring us the 2D action-adventure title, Castlevania: Belmont's Curse. Mark your calendars, as it’s set to launch on October 15.
This isn't just another retread. We’re jumping 23 years after the events of the classic Castlevania 3: Dracula's Curse, landing smack in the middle of 1499 Paris. You’ll be stepping into the boots of Rose Belmont, daughter of Trevor, as she wields the legendary Vampire Killer whip. It’s a journey packed with all the weapons and technical flair you'd expect when cleaning out Dracula’s castle of its usual monster infestation.
If you caught the Xbox Games Showcase, you've already seen the new trailer showing off Rose’s combat systems as she navigates that signature gothic world. It’s looking sharp, mate. We also got our first look at some fresh locations and bosses, all brought to life by the distinct art style of renowned Japanese illustrator Katsuya Terada.
Fancy a head start? Pre-orders kick off on the 8th for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC via Steam. If you sign up early, you’ll snag an Alucard-style costume for your trouble. For those feeling a bit more spendy, the Midnight Edition packs the base game with three extra in-game items: Trevor and Sypha-style costumes, and a family portrait magic tool. Plus, you’ll get access to a digital soundtrack featuring 71 tracks and an art gallery to pore over.
As for the Nintendo Switch crowd, hang tight—the release date and pre-order details for that version will be announced through official channels at a later date.
