Top 15 Best Castlevania Games
Selecting the top best Castlevania video games
was not an easy task. It took a lot of research
and time to collect information on various
Castlevania games, choose the best and most
loving games, and then arrange them in the top 15
list. But for our dear users, we stepped on all
the hurdles and finally listed out the best games
that you can enjoy while playing. So, without any
further ado, lets check out the names and other
details to start the adventurous journey to play
games online
2
Super Castlevania IV Super Castlevania IV was
developed and published by Konami. This game is
the best video game and is ranked at the top.
This game is a platform video game for the Super
Nintendo Entertainment System. It was reissued
several times, one of which was for the Super NES
Classic Edition. More play control, 16-bit
graphics with Super NES's Mode 7, and a new
soundtrack with arrangements based on earlier
Castlevania songs are all aspects of Super
Castlevania IV. The game takes place in 1691
Transylvania and has the same setting as
Castlevania on the NES. Simon Belmont, a vampire
hunter, has to vanquish Dracula, a vampire. The
game was well- received by critics and is
regarded as one of the best video games ever
made. This game is one of the best video games in
2D game criteria. Castlevania Symphony of the
Night Konami created and released the action
role-playing game Castlevania Symphony of the
Night for the PlayStation and Sega Saturn. Toru
Hagihara was the director and producer, and Koji
Igarashi served as his assistant. It is a
straightforward, four-year-later sequel to
Castlevania Rondo of Blood. The protagonist,
Alucard, is the dhampir, the son of Dracula,
making a comeback from Castlevania III Dracula's
Curse. He awakens from sleep to investigate
Dracula's castle, which reappears after Richter
Belmont disappears. In contrast to earlier games
in the series, its design returns to the
exploration, nonlinear level design, and
role-playing aspects that were initially tested
in Castlevania II Simon's Quest. With a cult
following and accolades for its gameplay, audio,
and graphics, Symphony of the Night is regarded
as one of the best and most influential video
games ever created. Together with Super Metroid,
it is credited with creating the Metroidvania
genre. It also influenced many other
action-adventure games that focus on exploration,
and its gameplay concept was eventually adopted
by the Castlevania series, which continued to be
played on a mainframe. When it first came out,
the sales were very pitiful, and then, after some
time, the game gained its deserving popularity
via word-of-mouth. Then, it was turned into a
super hit video game, selling over 900,000 copies
in the US and Japan. Afterward, the game was
re-released on a number of platforms with
enhanced versions. Castlevania Aria of
Sorrow Konami developed and released Castlevania
Aria of Sorrow, a Metroidvania video game, in
2003. It is the third Game Boy Advance
Castlevania title. Aria of Sorrow was developed
under the direction of producer Koji Igarashi,
who oversaw the teams that created the earlier
Castlevania video games. Michiru Yamane came back
to work with Takashi Yoshida and Soshiro Hokkai
on the soundtrack. The Castlevania series was new
to director Junichi Murakami. The events of Aria
of Sorrow take place in 2035, following Dracula's
imprisonment following a fight in 1999. The story
follows Soma Cruz, a teenage boy who was given
occult abilities due to his possible role as
Dracula's reincarnation vessel, as he fights evil
entities who want to take over the undead lord's
reign. Some have characterized the game as an
action-adventure game with a hint of
role-playing. Unlike prior Castlevania games,
which take place in a medieval
3
environment, Aria of Sorrow uses a futuristic
scenario and introduces new aspects to the
series, such as the "Tactical Soul" system. May
2003 saw the release of Aria of Sorrow. It was a
commercial success in the United States, selling
over 158,000 sales in the three months after
release, despite selling poorly in Japan, where
it sold only 27,000 units almost one month after
release. Aria of Sorrow was praised for its level
design, music, graphics, gameplay (especially the
Tactical Soul System), and overall feel. It was
widely praised. It was deemed the greatest
Castlevania game since Symphony of the Night by
certain reviewers. Castlevania Rondo of
Blood Castlevania Rondo of Blood was originally
released in Japan, and it was named Akumajo
Dracula X Chi no Rondo. Konami created the
platform adventure game Rondo of Blood under Toru
Hagihara's direction for the PC Engine's Super
CD-ROM² System. In a segment of the Castlevania
video game series, protagonist Richter Belmont
sets out to rescue his sweetheart Annette from
Dracula's clutches. October 29, 1993, saw its
exclusive release in Japan. Castlevania Symphony
of the Night, a direct sequel, was made available
to all platforms in 1997. The game was reworked
in 1995 as Castlevania Dracula X for the Super
Nintendo Entertainment System and in 2007 as
Castlevania The Dracula X Chronicles for the
PlayStation Portable. The original game was
released in Japan in 2008 for the Wii's Virtual
Console service and in North America and the
Pacific Islands in 2010. The game was part of the
Castlevania Requiem collection for the
PlayStation 4 in 2018, along with Symphony of the
Night. The TurboGrafx-16 Mini can also be used to
play this title. Limited Run Games announced
TurboDuo's English release in 2021. Castlevania
Order of Ecclesia The third game in the
Castlevania series for the Nintendo DS is a
platform-adventure game called Castlevania Order
of Ecclesia. It was Produced by Koji Igarashi and
directed by Akihiro Minakata. The main plot of
this game involves a girl named Shanoa. After the
Belmont clan vanished, she was selected to defeat
Dracula. She was a part of an organization set to
defeat Dracula. Castlevania Order of Ecclesia
is a two-dimensional action-adventure game and
has elements of role-playing and adventure like
the ability to equip armor and cast spells. The
player's character, Shanoa, can gain icons known
as "Glyph symbols" through the use of a novel
fighting system dubbed the "Glyph System." She
can do this by vanquishing opponents or
overcoming obstacles. In this game, she can
perform extraordinary powers and skills by
equipping these emblems on her arms and back. The
player can use more than 100 different glyphs,
including magic and weapon glyphs. Magic Points
(MP) are needed for glyphs to function, and the
player must pause combat in order for the MP
gauge to refill if it is empty. Additionally, the
players have access to a unique Glyph Union
technique that, depending on the glyphs carried,
summons a more potent strike.

by MercurySteam and Kojima Productions,
Castlevania Lords of Shadow is a third-person
action-adventure video game that was released on
October 5, 2010, for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox
360 by Konami. August 27, 2013, saw the release
of the PC version. The Castlevania franchise has
been revived with this game. The tale, which
takes place in medieval Southern Europe, centers
on Gabriel Belmont's mission to revive his wife
and vanquish the Lords of Shadow, a sinister
organization. In 3D surroundings, the player
takes control of Gabriel, who defeats adversaries
with melee attacks and must solve riddles to
advance in the game. Castlevania Dawn of
Sorrow In 2005, an action-adventure game named
Castlevania Dawn of Sorrow was developed and
published by Konami. It is the first Castlevania
game to be released for the Nintendo DS and is a
part of Konami's Castlevania video game
franchise. The game is a continuation of
Castlevania Aria of Sorrow and shares many of
its features. Dawn of Sorrow achieved success in
the marketplace. In the three months following
its original release, it sold 164,000 units in
the US and over 15,000 units in Japan in its
first week of sales. The events of Aria of Sorrow
are carried over into Dawn of Sorrow, where
Dracula has been vanquished, and his
reincarnation, Soma Cruz, has taken up his
powers. With the aid of his allies, Soma manages
to escape, taking on the role of Dark Lord. A
cult emerges with the goal of murdering Soma to
start a new one. To make sure that doesn't
happen, Soma and his friends take action. Many
elements from previous Castlevania games are
included in Dawn of Sorrow, including the
"Tactical Soul" system from Aria of Sorrow, a
gloomy, gothic ambiance, and a mix of platform
and role-playing game elements. Castlevania
Bloodlines (Genesis) As part of the Castlevania
series, Castlevania Bloodlines is a platform
game that was created and released by Konami in
1994 for the Sega Genesis. It is also referred to
as Vampire Killer in Japan and Castlevania The
New Generation in the PAL territories. Elizabeth
Bartley, a vampire, is a mastermind behind the
start of World War I, using it as a sacrifice to
resurrect her uncle Dracula. In order to fight
evil, players assume the roles of John, Quincey
Morris' son, and Eric Lecarde, his
friend. Bloodlines was seen by the development
team as a special Castlevania game designed just
for the genesis. This makes the gameplay faster
and more focused on action. Toshiki Yamamura,
5
the author, also used his imagination to create
what he thought was a fresh take on the
Castlevania story. Castlevania (NES) The
initial Castlevania game got a lot of things
right. It was the NES game that started it all
and initiated the continuous battle between the
Belmont family and the fabled vampire Dracula, at
least in terms of release order. Even though they
had to be constrained by the system's modest
technology, the enemies and art direction are
nonetheless timeless. Even with perfect health
and an almost limitless supply of holy water at
your disposal, the might of the vampire was
demonstrated by having to battle both real Death
and legendary monsters before facing Dracula. But
the rigid controls of the original Castlevania,
which prevented you from being able to
course-correct jumps like in Super Mario Bros.,
also made the game incredibly difficult. You
ended up with a few damaged controllers when you
combined this with a knockback effect after you
took damage. Castlevania Portrait of
Ruin Konami is the developer and publisher of the
platform-adventure game Castlevania Portrait of
Ruina. For the Nintendo DS portable game
system, the game was released on November 16,
2006 in Japan and December 5, 2006 in North
America. Outside of its initial Japanese release,
Portrait of Ruin is the first handheld
Castlevania with English voice-overs and the
first to provide a cooperative multiplayer
gameplay mode. Situated in 1944 Europe throughout
World War II, Portrait of Ruin is an extension of
the narrative from Castlevania
Bloodlines. Castlevania III Dracula's Curse
(NES) Castlevania III Draculas Curse was
developed and published in Japan in 1989 and in
North America in 1990 by Konami for the Nintendo
Entertainment System. In 1992, Palcom released
this game in Europe. Soon after some time, it was
released on the Virtual Console for the Wii,
Nintendo 3DS, and Wii U. Dracula's Curse is an
action-adventure platform video game and the
third installment in the Castlevania video game
series. It is a prequel to Castlevanias original
game, and it was set several centuries before the
events of the first Castlevania game. The main
character is Trevor C. Belmont, a descendant of
the game's original protagonist, Simon
Belmont. Castlevania Harmony of
Dissonance Konami Computer Entertainment Tokyo
created Castlevania Harmony of Dissonance, which
Konami released on the Game Boy Advance. It is
the second game in Konami's Castlevania video
game series on the Game Boy Advance. This game
was released in June 2002 in Japan, September
2002 in North America, and October 2002 in
Europe. Harmony of Dissonance takes place in the
made-up world of the Castlevania television
series, which is based on the never-ending
struggle between Dracula, the immortal vampire,
and the vampire hunters of the Belmont line.
Harmony of Dissonance, which takes place fifty
years
6
after Simon Belmont defeats Dracula's curse,
centers on his grandson Juste Belmont and his
mission to free a boyhood friend who has been
abducted. Castlevania Circle of the Moon Konami
developed Castlevania Circle of the Moon, also
known as Castlevania in PAL regions, as a
platform video game for the Game Boy Advance.
Circle of the Moon is a video game from Konami's
Castlevania series, which was released as a
launch product in 2001. The series revolves
around the never-ending battle between Dracula
and the vampire hunters of the Belmont clan. The
game received positive reviews from critics and
sold one million copies worldwide. Koji Igarashi,
a former Castlevania producer, changed parts of
the plot's events, which drew criticism. On
September 23, 2021, the game was once again
released for the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4,
Xbox One, and Windows as a part of the
Castlevania Advance Collection. It came packaged
with Castlevania Dracula X, Castlevania Aria of
Sorrow, and Harmony of Dissonance. Castlevania
II Belmont's Revenge In 1991, Castlevania II
Belmonts Revenge was released for the Game Boy.
This game is a follow-up to Castlevania The
Adventure and is the second Castlevania title
available for the Game Boy. The fourth volume of
the Konami GB Collection compilations features a
color version of Belmont's Revenge. In this
fifteen-year flashback to Castlevania The
Adventure, Dracula abducts Soleil, the son of
Christopher Belmont, during his coming-of-age
celebration and turns him into a monster. In
order to rescue his son and Transylvania,
Christopher must face Dracula once more as he
assumes human form and reconstructs his castle
using Soleil's supernatural abilities. Castlevan
ia Lament of Innocence Konami Computer
Entertainment Tokyo developed the Castlevania
Lament of Innocence, and Konami published it for
the PlayStation 2 console. It is the third game
in the series to feature a 3D gameplay style and
the first to be released on the PlayStation 2. In
late 2003, it was released in Japan and North
America in early 2004, it was released in Europe
and Australia. In terms of chronology, the
Castlevania series' initial game is Lament of
Innocence. It is set in 1094 and centers on the
genesis of the recurring war between the immortal
vampire Dracula and the vampire hunters of the
Belmont clan, which is the central theme of the
series. Lament of Innocence tracks Leon Belmont
as he looks for his abducted fiancée inside the
castle of a vampire. When Lament of Innocence
was first released, it was met with largely
positive reviews from reviewers who praised the
game's graphics, gameplay, soundtrack, and origin
tale. The game received flak for having a
monotonous level design and a lot of backtracking.
