Platform Lineup and October 15 Release Date Confirmed
The game will launch on October 15 for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox Cloud, Xbox PC, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam. This new exploration-based 2D action-adventure Metroidvania RPG is being developed by Evil Empire and Motion Twin (The Rogue Prince of Persia and Dead Cells). Evil Empire is the main studio, while Motion Twin is an advisory game studio as sister developers of the sidescrolling roguelike Dead Cells. Konami recently confirmed the Switch version would run at 30fps when it arrives on the platform.
Setting the Stage in 15th-Century Paris
According to Konami, over two decades after the events of Castlevania III: Dracula’s Curse and the recent animated show, it is in the streets of 15th-century Paris that a new chapter of the legendary House Belmont is about to be written in bloody red ink. Armed with a legendary holy whip, the Vampire Killer, Trevor Belmont’s successor – and the game’s protagonist – must descend into the city attacked by monstrous creatures and a looming mystical castle to hunt down the beasts and save the Parisians from eternal darkness. Long-time fans and newcomers to the franchise will have to master different weapons and spells to arm themselves against foes. Plus, a sense of exploration will favor the bold and those who dare explore every inch of the sinister castle.
