Crimson Curse – Will Your Fate Bloom in Despair or Salvation 

More than twenty years after the events of Castlevania III and the recent animated series, the Belmont family’s story continues in 15th century Paris. Taking on the role of Trevor Belmont’s heir, players wield the powerful Vampire Killer whip to battle monstrous creatures and a mysterious castle that threaten to plunge the city into eternal darkness. Their mission: hunt down the beasts and save the people of Paris.

Both veteran players and those new to the game will need to learn a variety of weapons and spells to defeat enemies. Exploring the creepy castle thoroughly will also reward adventurous players.

Whip of wonder  

The famous whip is back in the latest Castlevania game, and it’s more useful than ever. It’s not just for fighting – players can now use it to swing across levels, discovering secret rooms and reaching new areas. Skilled players will also find that mastering the whip opens up unique and creative ways to battle enemies.

Enamoring environments with lurking danger 

Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse features a distinctive art style that expands on the series’ classic dark and gothic look, offering players a fresh way to experience the Castlevania world. The game includes detailed new locations filled with hidden secrets, challenging puzzles, and dangerous traps that require careful attention.
