The Netflix series was a tremendous success, that is something I hope Konami is not ignoring. Because it's based off of Castlevania 3, and who knows if they will make future seasons adapting more games, would you like to see a new series of Castlevania games that take influence from the Netflix series, like a soft reboot/reimagining of the games?

I wouldn't be against a Dracula X Chronicles like remake of Dracula's Curse with the Netflix series designs used for the characters and world.

I'd like to see a re-adaption of Castlevania II. The story could open up with the events of CVI's final struggle against Dracula and then continue on from there. Also the story elements of CVII that were never showcased in the game could be revealed in an animated release. And characters like the spirit in the graveyard and the crystal knights can be fleshed out more too. In fact Simon could end up leading the order of the knights against Dracula's army. Also Bosses like Death and Carmilla would have more prominent roles.

I would, but like you put, as its own thing in its own universe, like LoS or CV64.

Very much so.  A metroidvania re-imagining of Cv3 with the art style of the series would be incredible.  Though I would prefer a full open world, breath of the wild type game.

Dracula was not always a monster. He was once a man named Mathias Cronqvist. A flawed, conflicted, genius of a man. How did the educated, aristocratic, crusader who piously served the church become a vampire, and eventually the Dark Lord himself, the opposing force to God? From a very young age terrors and tragedy shaped the man into the king of all evil. This is his story.

I've been saying this for a decade, remake CVII. An official remake, how many fans make their own versions of CVII, but Konami have never stepped up to the plate. Why? (Don't need to answer that)

Look at Metroid II, yes AM2R has been highly praised by fans, but there's still nothing wrong with 'Samus Returns', it's a bloody good game.

CVII is the game that deserves a remake.

I'd be shocked if they didn't try to make a game adaptation of the Netflix series.

Get Wayforward on it ASAP. ;)

At most, I would like it if they used the animated series as a pretense to make a reimaginining of CV3 and tweak the story so that it fits in properly with the IGA canon. It don't mind if it's either classic-style, metroidvania-style, or even something knew, as long as the game ends up being polished (like CVX68K, RoB, SotN, AoS, etc).

Quite simply, hell yeah.  I'd love to see soemthing like this.  I agree though, put it in its own side Universe.  But Netflixvania games, I would definitely love to see.

Goatfucking is the lootbox system of the game.

I'd rather a completly new game in the classic storyline, maybe a sequel to Aria of Sorrow or something like that.

Nothing against remake of Castlevania III adding details that appeared netflix series, though. But I'd rather the netflix tv show as a more detailed retelling of the games, there's no need to revisit old games, i'm more interested on possible original content imo.
