It looks pretty cool, but I'm more hyped about the other Castlevania 'projects' Konami's working on.

I remembered my password!

It feels good to be back.

WE ARE SO BACK! It's been SO LONG!

[Reinhart77]

so many questions, ha.  can't wait to find out more. 

[GuyStarwind]

Yup, here we go again. The Dead Cells guys did a good job in their Castlevania content, so I'm hoping good things.

oh thank god it's confirmed for Switch. 

the fact they're calling stages biomes is making me think this is procedurally generated...  disappointing, but, if it's by the guys who made Dead Cells, well, i can give them a pass.

and they still refuse to name Trevor's successor haha.  just let us agonize a little longer whether it is or is not Sonia.

God DAMN it feels good to be back baby. Welcome back, Castlevania fandom. May this Dungeon stand a thousand years.

No more pining for new entries, no more waiting and hoping. This is finally it. We've been asleep too long and waking up to this feels great!

This one looks and sounds pretty Netflixvania-inspired, from the visuals to the Paris setting (which the Awakening in the Moonlight stage musical also used, weirdly). For better or worse, I guess we should thank Frederator for spearheading a Castlevania revival and redefining it for a new generation.

I'd like to know who the protag is. She's prolly Trevor and Sypha's daughter, but prolly not named after the ones mentioned in that series bible fax.

It has that half baked comic book style that many modern 2D game developers have been using as an excuse to to push out sloppy unfinished background art, and also reminds me too much of the Netflix show. At this stage I think I'm just going to pass on it. I can always read the wiki or watch videos for any new lore.

Not impressed by the visuals, but hey, beggers can't be choosers. I'm just glad to see a new Castlevania.

Not impressed by the visuals, but hey, beggers can't be choosers. I'm just glad to see a new Castlevania.

I agree with that, but that's not the only thing that i find bugging me, it's very close close to how plays dead cells that i feel it has lost it's identity.

Don't get me wrong, i love Dead Cells, but i feel that this style is not the right one, from art to game play style.

I might be wrong, but from what i have seen so far i just don't get the Castlevania vibes. It feels so generic, but oh well, in the end it is what it is......

[Pemburu Vampir]

Good to be back!

[DarkLavos]

I don't know about that one chief, I'm excited to finally have a new game but it just feels so off. Maybe it's the discount anime art coupled with mono colored backgrounds and mostly black foreground that just make everything looks bland.
