Castlevania account says Belmont’s Curse still coming to Switch, release date later

Many of you were surprised not to see a Nintendo Switch or Nintendo Switch 2 logo for Castlevania Belmont’s Curse as the title had been announced for the original Nintendo Switch. The reason why it wasn’t shown in the trailer announcing the release date is because it will be arriving at a later date than other platforms, though it’s still on for 2026. We can assume that it will also come to the Nintendo Switch 2, though that has not been disclosed as of yet.

The release of the Nintendo Switch version is scheduled for 2026, but the release date and pre-orders will be announced at a later time.

Thanks to Neptune57 for the news tip

  1. I want to be excited for a new Castlevania, but I am unfortunately doubtful… The trailer showed of damage numbers and that attacks can “Miss”.
    That seems like terrible design elements for an intense action platformer game, to me, although I hope I am wrong.

  2. Thank you for the mention.

    However this is still disappointing and frankly somewhat unacceptable from the developers. Castlevania is a franchise often associated with Nintendo platforms (with some PS installments). Essentially it is one of the non-Nintendo IPs that you think of when it comes to Nintendo platforms.

    And this is a Metroidvania as well and those games tend to sell really well on Nintendo Switch. Delaying it for later will just hurt sales of the initial release.

  3. You cannot tell me this ain’t gona get a dazzling switch 2 version.
    Hopefully the next Nintendo direct will reveal more.
    Maybe a new switch lite 2 is gona be revealed with a special castlevania edition.
    I would buy that straight away!

  4. They lied originally saying it was a male it’s not. So how does the Belmont name carry on if it’s a woman? Konami super woke with their Black Rock, Vanguard, and Nomura investors it’s why their games are woke western slop or just woke slop despite being Japanese. The show is awful too and this looks horrible the western art style. Igarashi was Castlevania and he did well with a female protagonist.

  5. tsk tsk 3rd party delays or outright dodging the console when we have series s and steam deck….we better not hear anymore of excuses next year this is getting out of hand
