On October 15, 2026, the Castlevania series celebrates its 40th anniversary with the release of Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse. Developed by Evil Empire and Motion Twin, this title marks the first complete console entry since 2014. Available on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox on PC, Steam, and Nintendo Switch, the game follows Rose Belmont, daughter of Trevor and Sypha, as she navigates a dark, 1499 Paris.
The gameplay blends traditional whip combat with a new "Arcana" system, allowing players to seal boss souls into tarot cards for special abilities. Reviewer experience highlights the depth of map design, where players must observe environments to solve intricate puzzles. Combat is described as demanding, requiring precise timing and tactical use of various weapons, though some Arcana skills can feel cumbersome to master initially.
Visually and aurally, the game excels by combining modern animation with classic gothic aesthetics. The soundtrack features contemporary arrangements of iconic themes like "Bloody Tears." The reviewer, who spent approximately 20 hours to achieve one of three endings, praises the game for its challenging difficulty and rewarding progression, noting that it serves as an excellent entry point for newcomers while honoring the series' legacy.
