Sonia's biggest problem is the fact it's insinuated she and Alucard fucked and created Trevor, making the Belmonts related to Dracula. And I can understand why Konami wouldn't wanna canonize that. HOWEVER! It was IGA who retconned her and her game, clearly because of his own personal reasons.

I do genuinely feel Sonia deserves another fair shot of a remake, because I do fuck with her design.

The fact that she isn't Sonia hopefully means that we're getting a Legends remake by M2

I don't mind female MC, this has happened in Castlevania before multiple times

He would work best with Simon Belmont. They should've gone with Ayami Kojima or someone that draws characters beautifully, especially since the MC is female.

Konami or the devs may have wanted to distinguish this game from the standard Castavnia look that Kojima has apitimised for nearly three decades now,
I just think Tereda's style also doesn't really suit the art style of this game either though
>>
>>740514989
Pretty sure it has been done before.
The issue at large is what does this do different than a decade of metroidvania games?
It looks like the same indie slop.
I feel that when AI is fully capable of creating games through prompts alone, Metroidvanias will be among the first to be mass produced.

This. There hasn't been a female Belmont in the mainline series before this, chronologically. Sonia was retconned out of the series so Rose (I was so convinced she'd be a canon version of Sonia) is the first to take up the whip.

A lot of people online also seem to consider this new game as a full mainline entry but I feels like it's more an appetizer before what they do next (and to have something releasing for the anniversary instead of just reveals)

Pretty based. I don't like how the levels work though, I also want more diversity in music that isn't just orchestra with organ music slop.

This. We're halfway through the year, and it's the first canon game starring a Belmont in, like, decades or something. What else should we take from this other than it being the next mainline game?

I'm hoping an SotN/Rondo Remaster/Port for systems other than Playstation might also be on the way.

A Castlevania game without Michiru Yamane is sacrilege anyway. From the trailer their focus is boring orchestra with organ music anyway, not worth focusing on too much.

I think my only issue is the eyes in the key art. She looks like she has no eyebrows and like she's...ill? Might be intentional with the curse stuff though. I love the etching look though, suits the series well I think.

I really hate the artstyle, but I also hated Bloodstained's artstyle, and that game was great. I'm cautiously optimistic.

I din't think he gets much hate, really. I for one think he deserves more, as much as Konami was obviously already deteriorating in the 2000s, Igarashi didn't help things. People just routinely mistook his enthusiasm for competence.

I like the GBA and DS games, but there's nothing there worth putting Igarashi on a pedestal over.

>but there's nothing there worth putting Igarashi on a pedestal over
Taking into account Aria and the DS era games are better than 90% of the metroidvanias sold on Steam in 2026 I think it's pretty safe to say you are incorrect.
Not to mention the fact he made those games in a budget of roughly two onigiris, or how much of a mess the continuity was before he came in.(e.g Simon is a half-vampire in SCV4)

Funny that they did that again in Lords of Shadow, only this time Trevor's father was Draclua and Trevor became Alucard.

Eh, while I adore her work, I also think it would have been fine if they had gone with a more classic style soundtrack. The problem is that they did neither, and currently it sounds very generic. Not like Classicvania and not like modern CV.

I don't even know if she's still doing professional works. Wasn't Bloodstained her latest game?

I have to say Scarlet Engagement has me more excited than Belmont's Curse. Both look good, but Bloodstained looks a lot more in line with what I want out of a Castlevania, while Belmont's Curse looks like...well, like a Castlevania tribute made by the developers of Dead Cells.

if she was born in that 3 year time gap then Rose was born cursed and they could argue there's vestiges of the curse of darkness(tm) in her

>Taking into account Aria and the DS era games are better than 90% of the metroidvanias sold on Steam in 2026 I think it's pretty safe to say you are incorrect.
It became a hyper popular genre flooded with games. 90% of them are awful. My point wasn't how Aria or Portrait compared to the lowest of the low, but their place in the series. They were generally obvious games following the obvious template of Symphony of the Night. Good games, sure, but they didn't require the daring genius of Cowboy Hat-sama. He was a mediocrity.

Castlevania has never had a story worth caring about, and he arguably managed to make it even worse with Lament of Innocence (which even ignoring the story is dogshit).

Just finihsed all three GB games, and Legends was the worst one. It wasn't the worst in terms of graphics or controls, but I still found The Adventure more compelling as a more tightly designed game.
Worse than that, I don't even remember a single audio track from Legends (aside from one reused song) minutes after beating it. Even with The Adventure, I at least remembered the Stage 1 track and kept humming it.

Belmont's Revenge is on another level though, might now be my favorite Classicvania along with a couple others like 3.
Went and beat it on Hard Mode again immediately after killing Drac. The music is also too good for Game Boy.

Sonia was, even though she's not canon.
Also Sypha still existed though she wasn't a belmont. Also were there even any belmonts before Trevor besides Leon?

You know the weirdest part is that tainting the Belmont bloodline with vampire genes could've been a long-term explanation for why the bloodline was almost irredeemably tainted after Richter was possessed, I like it better as an explanation that Richter's internal evil was concentrated and he was made unworthy of the whip than that doing things outside of his own control and against his will tainted his bloodline

I mean, I always took it as Shaft putting a curse on Ricters bloodline since his whole possession made him load of the Castle until Shaft was ready to receive Dacula. Outside of Dracula's Curse, this is the last time we saw a Belcomt having some kind of magic causing a Belmount to be tainted.

Here's all the character bio from the website, with full confirmation this is very much the regular game universe

>Rose Belmont
A new protagonist who bears Dracula’s curse in her right arm. The daughter of Trevor Belmont, she is a young vampire hunter who wields a variety of weapons in addition to her whip.
>Trevor Belmont
The hero who defeated Count Dracula twenty-three years ago, armed with the legendary holy whip—the Vampire Killer. Trevor Belmont, alongside his daughter, Rose, travels down the River Seine in response to a call for help from Paris.
> Count Dracula
Immortal vampire king and the lord of Dracula’s Castle. In the late 15th century, he led an army of monsters and plunged humanity into despair, but was defeated by Trevor Belmont and his companions. However, three years later, he temporarily resurrected, revealing that his soul was indestructible. Twenty years later, darkness was once again beginning to stir in Paris...

Bosses :
> The Fallen
A mysterious “monster” that terrorizes the people of Paris. The first threat Rose encounters in the sewers.
>Joan of Arc
A French heroine who received a divine revelation and played a prominent role in the Hundred Years' War…
> Medusa
A monster with the body of a giant serpent.
Her gaze has turned countless people to stone.
> Isaac
A devil forgemaster who creates and commands demons. He has a history with Trevor dating back 20 years.
> Carmilla
A renowned vampire awaiting Rose in Dracula’s Castle. Her battle stance, clad in a bloodstained dress, is both terrifying and beautiful.
>Death
Dracula’s right-hand man, the Grim Reaper. His soul-reaping scythe can even slice through space itself.

more characters are also teased for later

This, everything about the game looks good, the female Belmont is fine, but the fact that they went out of their way to acknowledge it is concerning. No one went "Ha, a GIRL can't fight Dracula!" in Order of Ecclesia.

Limited movement is a feature, but I appreciate IV for being atmospheric without being boring. It's still a demanding enough action-platformer with a lot of memorable levels. It's not that much easier than Bloodlines, really.

But moving in the air and the whip movement feel completely retarded, it's not an issue with it being easy (it isn't after the first few stages).
Limited movement feels realistic, you can't really change the direction of your jump IRL. I like the commitment

The thing that really gets my noggin jogging is that the Vampire Killer is the ultimate cuck weapon. Think about it. Leon Belmont, the first Belmont had to kill his fiancee with the whip that only became the vampire Killer because it trapped the soul of the woman burning with hatred towards vampires because she would rather become a cursed weapon than a vampire. And now all the descendants of the man you loved and never got to have a family with are using you to continue their bloodline while yours ended with you. For all its power that whip has suffered enough.
