Topic: What if Castlevania V got announced ?

[Dengo vlad tepes]

it came to my mind that the demon castle wars event will take a great place in the series to be called Catlevania V using the classicvania gameplay style with some upgraded stuffs like unlocking "fire , thunder , ice and poison whip" to break some firewalls , icewalls and greenwalls using the right whip plus adding the option to explore the previous stages like in rondo , man that will be a dream of life especially if they added 2 playable characters Julius & Alucard awwwwwww that will be so sick man !!! can this dream come true or its just a dream will stay in my head and forever ?


*sigh* until when we'll keep dreaming can't they hear us fans for once ?!

I'll take Belmont's Revenge ReBirth instead o.o;

And technically there was no numbering system for Castlevania in Japan.


and not to nitpick but why do people keep calling it the demon castle WARS? It was one event, singular not plural. Do you ever hear people say the Vietnam Wars?

Bro its just an ideas , some kind of analysis and wishes since it got mentioned as a big event happened in 1999 its just unfair to not see the end of dracula ... but we heard about it

Any kind of new Classicvania would be appreciated. I would take a game with Sonia Belmont brought into canon or a ReBirth sequel.

I'm ok with ReBirth games since if it will get something longer and bigger than advanture rebirth cuz i really enjoyed this game but i have finished it within 5 hours wth !!

i know its a wii ware game but it deserve more than that come what happened to castlevania why most of the games are releasing digitaly !! and poorly created like HD and ReBirth

Agreed, I've been waiting for that for a while.

My idea of Castlevania V would undoubtedly be the 1999 game. I know a lot of people would expect a MetroidVania instead, but Julius should get his own ClassicVania that combines the very best elements of all of the original games.

More characters to play as from Dracula's Curse and Bloodlines like Julius, Yoko, and Alucard, IV's whip swinging and semi directional whipping like Bloodlines and Chronicles, Rondo of Blood's item crashes and multiple routes to take, etc.

I'm definitely up for a new Classicvania.

But not for the battle of 1999 game.

With a game of that scope and considering all the things that supposedly happened during that time (Julius fighting alongside Belnades,Alucard, and Hakubos) and also the whole "Soldiers" fighting and being preset during that time, I just think that a metroidvania style would be the way to go.

But in 2.5D of course, just to eliminate the "reusing sprites" complaint that has plagued recent 2.D castlevania titles.

Mix all of them together and make the classicvania game also bring back a danasty and some special konami guest like ryukotsuki and a descendant of Fuma and neclord from suikoden yeah with little extras like this all will be perfect.

I'd actually love a merging of the ClassicVania and MetroidVania. It's an idea I had, where you can play it linear, stage based, until the final battle with Dracula, but also give you freedom that, when you begin a new stage, you can exit through a door where you start, and retread through previous levels to find alternate paths(stages). All together, the castle, in it's entirety, would have 4 or 5 alternate paths(each with a number of unique stages) than the default one, taking you through different stages and different bosses, all leading up to the Castle Keep(or the Clock Tower, where you fight Death).

Wow, that actually sounds like a pretty good compromise to the choice of metroidvania or classicvania.

Being able to traverse linear levels complete with classic pit falls and great platforming while being able to turn around and go back to levels and find alternate paths seems like a great way to blend the 2 together to please all in my opinion.

I also would like for the "rpg" system to return, but instead of being able to grind and level up the character you instead have to find upgrades to your abilities akin to the original Super Metroid title such as heath increases,attack increases,defense increases etc, and of course, new weapons.

I would love for the 1999 game to play like that.

This really does sound like such a great idea. It sound like a great blend of Dracula X (though more advance so to speak) with the backtracking ability of the MetroidVania titles.

Wasn't SOTN at some point of development called "Castleania 5"?

Anyway, release of the game under that name would an interesting idea. However, if this game will be created, I believe it should be "calssicvania" with simple plot and simple gameplay. Maybe in the vein of SCV4.
