Konami is Discussing Bringing Castlevania to Switch


"We are well aware of how loved [...] Castlevania is."

Konami is discussing whether or not to bring Castlevania to Nintendo Switch.

In an interview with Miketendo64, European Brand Manager, Richard Jones, confirmed that there'd been "lots of internal discussions" at Konami to ascertain what games the publisher "can bring to the Nintendo Switch".

“All I can say is that there is lots of internal discussions going on within Konami regarding what games we can bring to the Nintendo Switch, other than Bomberman, a game which we are well aware of its heritage and how loved it and Castlevania is," Jones said. "So much so that Castlevania is getting its own show on Netflix and because of that, we’re hearing a lot of desires from our fans for a new Castlevania series.

"So we do know there is a demand for a new game, but right now nothing is set in stone as the discussions are still on-going.”

As for whether or not Super Bomberman R will make it to the Wii U? According to Jones, "the short answer is no".

"Super Bomberman R was only ever considered for the Nintendo Switch," added Jones. "We first learned of the console in 2015 and our dev team started to think up what game would have the most impact on it and before you knew it, we were settled on doing a Bomberman game and not long after Super Bomberman R was conceived and development properly began in 2016." 

Netflix recently announced a Castlevania animated series will be coming to the streaming service later this year. Netflix's website lists the series as a four-part season, with each episode running for approximately 30 minutes.

"This is very much Castlevania done in the vein of Game of Thrones," producer and writer, Adi Shankar, told IGN, adding it was going to be "R-rated as f***."
