Konami confirms Castlevania: Belmont's Curse for Nintendo Switch with 15th October release
Konami has confirmed that the Nintendo Switch version of Castlevania: Belmont's Curse will launch at the same time as other platforms, with a release date of 15th October.
The announcement was posted to Konami's official X account and reiterates the company's intent to bring the next entry in the long-running Castlevania franchise to Nintendo's hybrid console.
In a post on its official X account, Konami confirmed the Nintendo Switch version will be available simultaneously on 15th October along with releases on other platforms.
The company did not provide additional details about regional release windows, edition variants, pricing, or pre-order availability in that post.
Why this matters for Nintendo Switch owners
Castlevania remains one of Konami's most recognizable franchises since its debut in 1986 on the Nintendo Entertainment System.
The series has seen multiple re-releases and collections on modern platforms; notably, Konami released the Castlevania Anniversary Collection and the Castlevania Advance Collection on Nintendo Switch in recent years.
Those collections have established a precedent for the series' presence on the Nintendo eShop and for bringing legacy and new entries to Switch audiences.
