What's this? An update after nearly ten years...
Last Update - May 21, 2012:
There have been no news about a new Castlevania title for some time...
...UNTIL NOW!
Apparently,
there was a registered Konami title name "Castlevania: Mirror of Fate"
since February. Now, a N1ntendo.n blog post (in another
language)
shows us that there may be more to this title. N1ntendo.n
article here for great justice.
The article mentions the title "Castlevania: Mirror of Fate".
From what the sources say, and from what Neogaf
also says,
the title is being worked on by David Cox and Enric Alvarez
(Castlevania: Lords of Shadow). The rumor in the grapevine
says
that it will be a title made using 3D Polygons, but with 2D gameplay
(sidescroller) and Metroidvania elements.
Personal opinion by
Jorge D. Fuentes: I believe the title will play like a
Metroidvania game, but will visually have a Polygon look, similar to
Adventure Mode in the Super Smash Bros. Melee/Brawl game, or perhaps
something like a Castlevania version of Kirby & the Crystal
Shards.
It does not seem like the title will be a pure sidescrolling
platforming game like The DraculaX Chronicles, though it may share in
some aspects.
Head on over to the Forum
Section
for the ever-increasing discussion. Though be warned; the
fans
who did not enjoy David Cox and Enric Alvarez's direction with Lords of
Shadow are wary about this upcoming title repeating some of the
supposed mistakes, and are being quite vocal about it. Hot
Topic!

There's a comedy web series out there on the Interwebs called "Vampirism Bites".
It seems to take on humorous and/or nonsensical takes on
Vampire
lore and archetypes, including Castlevania's own Belmont lineage, as
well as Alucard, etc.

There's gonna be a Castlevania Series gameplay Pseudo-Marathon.
Read more about it here.
If you were looking for more Castlevania news... well, Harmony of
Despair comes out on PS3 sometime soon-ish?
Any other news is depressing: Konami revealed nothing about
Castlevania in the Tokyo Gameshow 2011...

No news is bad news. Click on our " What's New"
on the left,there, to see the non-coverage Konami did with Castlevania
on Gamescon. It's only a tiny blurb, though. On the
very
last day, before the end of the conference...
Last Update - August 16, 2011:
A picture was linked in our forums
of a list of upcoming titles (more info on our What's New
page).
On Konami's section it lists a "Castlevania: The Complete
Works".
This list is speculative to be for the Playstation Vita.
Please stay tuned for more details!

Testing,
testing! Hi, this is Jorge D. Fuentes. Since it
appears
that I can edit the site now, I think I will be able to update it and
put up new content and the like. For those people who
frequent
the forums, I ask that if you have
spotted any errors around the website, to please post them here.

more tidbits on Lords of Shadow! Check out the post here.
