(KONAMI) today launches Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse, the newest entry in the iconic Castlevania franchise on PlayStation®5, Nintendo Switch™, XBOX Series X|S, XBOX on PC and Steam®. Armed with a legendary holy whip, the Vampire Killer, Rose Belmont 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.

Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse is an exploration-based 2D action game developed jointly by KONAMI, Evil Empire and Motion Twin. The story unfolds in Paris, France, in 1499, 23 years after the events of the popular series entry Castlevania III: Dracula’s Curse. Rose Belmont, daughter of the Dracula-slaying hero Trevor Belmont, sets out to defeat monsters whilst exploring the burning streets of Paris and Dracula’s castle, utilizing a variety of weapons and skills.

Long-time fans and newcomers alike will discover a rich arsenal of weapons and abilities to wield against the forces of darkness. Exploration lies at the heart of the adventure, rewarding those who venture beyond the beaten path to uncover hidden secrets, powerful upgrades and the many mysteries that lurk within Dracula’s sinister castle. Accompanying the journey is an atmospheric soundtrack composed by Daniel ASADI, a perfect match in Castlevania’s musical heritage.

The digital or physical Midnight Editions of Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse include alternate costumes for Rose Belmont, a Digital Sound & Art Gallery, and an in-game relic item.
