If this happens this year it will be one hell of a year for Castlevania fans. Belmont's Curse, Bloodstained 2, Seal of the Eclipse?

Trvth Nvke, but man, I don't think we'll be THAT lucky lol.

General Castlevania Discussion / Re: Leon killing Sara

« Last post by zangetsu468 on February 25, 2026, 03:47:33 AM »

Whipsmemory has ironically and poetically spilled all of the proverbial relevant tea, in terms of why the LoI plot re: Sara’s sacrifice was executed, the way that it was.

It’s also worth pointing out that although Walter taints Sara, Mathias indirectly orchestrated everything that happened in an overarching sense. Given his own betrothed dies while he’s away, he then causes events that lead to Leon killing Sara; this illustrates the hard juxtaposing line between Mathias & Leon: The former, losing Elisabetha and turning against God; the latter, losing Sara and vowing to “hunt [creatures of] the night” for God.. Two men - like brothers - of God, parallel situations with extremely different outcomes.

Some new info from the senior narrative designer and writer Marie Rouzié.

Does anyone know what her previous works look like?

Open structure + 25 characters + subquests + branching dialogues seems like they are being a little too ambitious for the studio's first metroidvania...

That said, Konami should give another task to M2. Haunted Castle Revisited was cool.

Went to Sir henry's Haunted trail: love's revenge on the 13th:

5/5

This year, they went with 3 trails for their Haunted Valentine's event, and they knocked it out of the park!  Food options were slightly better than the Christmas Haunt.  Looking forward to the Haunted Ghost town and BBQ event in mid-April.

Here's to hoping future Castlevania "products" are in hands that excite me more; the devs of Infernax, The Last Faith or even FromSoftware would be welcome.

I'm glad someone else agrees that the Infernax people would do a great job on a Castlevania game. Heck, the game already has a couple of Castlevania references.

*I don't like the Netflix series at all.

*I vastly prefer linear or branching paths over the exploration platformers that came from SOTN and onward.

*I like Tom duBois's artwork way more than Ayami Kojima's. The latter stayed on for far too long and made all the heroes too feminine.

*I think Dracula X is underrated and a great companion piece to Rondo. Like a second quest or DLC.

I'd give my left nut to have the Blasphemous devs do a Castlevania game, those guys are pixel art GODS.
