Castlevania: Symphony of the Night drops on iOS and Android Devices!🦇📱

In what is certainly the perfect opportunity to capitalize on nostalgia and give fans new and old the perfect complimentary piece for the new season of the Netflix series premiering TOMORROW, Konami has released a mobile app port of the critically acclaimed “Castlevania: Symphony of the Night”!

Known as “Dracula X: Nocturne of the Moonlight” in Japan, this side-scrolling action adventure game was originally released in March 1997 in Japan for the Sony Playstation, before being translated and getting the North American release known to everyone, mankind ill or otherwise (a reference to the original dub haha). Unlike previous Castlevania titles, Symphony of the Night was a departure from the simple whip and go progressive adventures the Belmont clan were accustomed to. This time, the primary adventure put you in control of Dracula’s own son Alucard as he awakens from a centuries long slumber after the current wielder of the Vampire Killer whip, Richter Belmont, mysteriously disappears.

In a style dubbed as “Metroidvania” by fans, players guided Alucard in a non-linear, action RPG styled adventure, unlocking secrets, learning spells, acquiring different sets of weapons and equipment, and leveling up after battling and defeating monsters around the castle.

Produced by the legendary Koji Igarashi and going on to becoming one of the most beloved games in video game history, Symphony of the Night saw many ports and rereleases following its Playstation debut, including a redubbed version first released for the Playstation Portable as a hidden game in “Castlevania: The Dracula X Chronicles” and then that very version together with its predecessor “Castlevania: Rondo of Blood” was bundled as a digital release for the Playstation called “Castlevania: Requiem”.



You’ll be playing that very same PSP/ PS4 release for the iOS/ Android mobile devices, but with shortcuts and quick presses to make it easier if you don’t have a controller on hand.



Literally SOTN on the go and in time for Castlevania Netflix Season 3! This Mobile Edition of Castlevania: Symphony of the Night retails at $2.99! Add it to your collection if you love playing in your mobile devices and phones!

While the surviving Forge Masters and Carmilla plan and put together their armies to finish what Vlad Tepes started - the elimination of humankind.

Castlevania Season 3 will begin streaming on Netflix on March 5th.

ICYMI: Castlevania Season 3 comes to Netflix this March

Konami announces new "Anniversary Collection" bundle, including Castlevania and Contra

Despite the controversy the company has faced with their focus on pachinko machines and what they did to Hideo Kojima, Konami is going to celebrate their 50th year in the industry by releasing a series of "Anniversary Collection" releases - with the first being a focus on Arcade Classics that include the Castlevania arcade game "Haunted Castle", "Life Force", "TwinBee", and three other titles. This will be released on April 18 for the PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC -so all platforms get a taste of old school retro action and games the publisher used to make.

That won't be the end of things however, as a Castlevania Anniversary Collection and a Contra Anniversary Collection have also been announced - bringing some four retro titles for each franchise back along with four unannounced ones as well, bringing a total of eight games for each released collection. Those are still awaiting release dates and more details, so visit the official Konami website for more information.

ICYMI: Adi Shankar and Netflix announce "Devil May Cry" series

If you haven't heard the news yet, the success of Netflix and Adi Shankar's Castlevania series has sparked and rekindled interest in adapting video games into animated features - so much so that Shankar took to his Facebook page and announced that Capcom's popular "Devil May Cry" series will be getting the Netflix animated series treatment too!

Now in the works and joining Castlevania in what Shankar calls the "Bootleg Universe", Devil May Cry will be the second popular video game series to be adapted, and as the producer said in an interview in IGN - acquired the rights so the "jabronis in Hollywood don't ------ this one up to."

He has a point - Castlevania has garnered universal acclaim, and its second season was just WOW.

Castlevania Season 2: Bloody Tears were literally shed for this Netflix masterpiece

It's been almost two weeks since Netflix and producer Adi Shankar unleashed the second season of their animated series adaptation of "Castlevania" - the beloved action adventure series that sees players take on the role of Vampire Hunters traversing through Dracula's namesake castle and facing the Lord of Darkness himself. This show is nothing short of PERFECTION - premiering on July 2017 on the streaming service with four episodes - before eventually getting an expanded eight episode run this year with the sophomore season.

Castlevania: Season 2 | Official Trailer
Developed originally as a film beginning as early as 2007, Castlevania lingered on in developmental hell until 2015 - when it was resurrected and eventually began new life as a planned animated adult television series. Warren Ellis served as the writer of the series - adapting concepts and themes largely based from Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, but telling a wholly original story the fleshed out the adventures of Treveor Belmont, Sypha, Alucard, and of course Dracula and his army. The first season served as a slow introduction that built up the plot and narrative of Dracula's mission of vengeance after his wife Lisa is burned in the stake - which eventually sets up his inevitable confrontation with the Vampire Hunters and his estranged son - who honors his mother's wish to leave humanity unharmed by her husband's fury. Season 2 successfully expands the story and tuned up the band - introducing new characters and story arcs while maintaining the main plot - with Episode 7 serving as the "main course" that fans of the series have waited for. You just have to see it to believe it.

With Season 2 currently streaming and offering some good ol' Vampire Killer goodness to fans, Castlevania has proven itself to be one heck of a video game adaptation - possibly even THE BEST ONE made to date. Season 3 has been confirmed and is expected to come around within the next year or so. We'll just have to wait and see where the adventure to defeat the forces of evil takes us next. Catch this now on Netflix.

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2: "Dracula's Vengeance" trailer debuts online

Debuting just yesterday during All Hallow's Eve, Konami and Mercury Steam have debuted the latest trailer that opens up much about the plot and story to expect in the next new Castlevania installment: Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2.

As a sequel to the 2010 game that featured actors Robert Carlyle and Patrick Stewart in prominent voice roles as Gabriel Belmont and Zobek, this game is part of a reboot of the Castlevania mythos, and introduces a new twist in the Belmont/ Dracula legacy that will leave many changes in their legacy and feud.

The official new trailer from the Lords of Shadow Facebook Page pretty much describes what it is: "Dracula's Vengeance". SPOILERS follow naturally of course, so if you haven't played the first game or the spinoff "Mirror of Fate", view this at your own risk.

Castlevania Lords of Shadow 2 Pre-E3 debut trailer

Premiering during Konami's pre-E3 presscon on May 31st, the tragic character of Gabriel Belmont will return once again in the epic sequel to the 2010 hit Castlevania: Lords of Shadow, Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2. Developed by Konami and Mercury Steam, it's confirmed for a release sometime in 2013, with a cinematic trailer giving players a glimpse of things to come. SPOILER Analysis and the trailer follow after the jump, so view at your own risk.

MGS4 + Castlevania PS3 Bundle Pack!

By way of Kotaku, it appears that Sony and Konami will be releasing a new Playstation 3 Bundle Pack containing two of Konami's best titles for the system, namely Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, and the recently released Castlevania: Lords of Shadow! The package will include the new 160gb PS3 slim model, and the two aforementioned games. Anyone who hasn't gotten the system yet may want to take advantage of this bundle, but the catch is that it'll only be available in Japan, priced at ¥37980 (US$471) and to be sold this December. Personally, I still prefer my MGS4 80gb bundle, which is the older model that can still play PS2 games, but this pack has more hard disk space, and comes with two games to start newbies off well if they haven't gotten a next gen system yet!
