Castlevania: Belmont's Curse FAQ

What is Castlevania: Belmont's Curse?

Castlevania: Belmont's Curse is an official 2D action-exploration Metroidvania developed by Evil Empire in collaboration with Konami and Motion Twin. Set in 1499 Paris, players control protagonist Rose Belmont as she explores 1499 Paris using agile whip combat and Arcana abilities.

When is the release date and what are the demo details?

The game launches worldwide on October 15, 2026 (listed as October 14 on Steam US). An official demo covering the opening chapter is available on Steam, Switch, PS5, and Xbox, supporting save transfer to the full retail version under same-platform and same-account requirements.

Which platforms is Castlevania: Belmont's Curse available on?

The game is officially confirmed for PC (Steam), PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch (with Nintendo Switch targeting 30 FPS per Konami's official portal). The linked official platform list does not include a native Switch 2 edition.

How does the Arcana system and mana recovery work?

Arcana spells provide tactical magic such as Holy Cross and Holy Light. Rose recovers mana by defeating enemies, using that mana to fuel spellcasting (Triangle) and active healing (L1). Relics such as the Crypt Key provide additional recovery upon opening chests.

What weapon types and traits are confirmed?

The game features seven distinct weapon categories. Preview reports confirm Longswords gain bonus damage after backdashing, while Cestus gauntlets offer rapid close-range combos whose damage scales on consecutive hits.
