Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse Has Its Fangs In Me Already, And Fangfully, There’s A Pre-Order Discount
Evil Empire, the studio behind Dead Cells post-launch support and founded by former Motion Twin developers, is developing Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse, a modern side-scrolling Metroidvania interpretation of the classic Castlevania franchise. The game is available for pre-order at a discounted price.
Drawing from the roguelite Metroidvania formula that defined Dead Cells, Evil Empire’s approach to the Castlevania revival positions the game as an indie-influenced take on the iconic vampire-hunting series. The developer’s experience crafting compelling post-launch content and their Motion Twin heritage suggest a strong foundation for reinvigorating the franchise within the modern indie Metroidvania landscape.
The pre-order discount offers early supporters financial incentive to commit before the game’s official launch, signaling confidence in the project while rewarding player interest ahead of release.
