Free on Epic: Castlevania Anniversary Collection
The Castlevania Anniversary Collection brings the legendary vampire hunter Simon Belmont and his descendants back to your screens, featuring several of the iconic titles that made the Castlevania series so famous.
Castlevania is a series that most of you are familiar with: It is one of the absolute classics of the 8- and 16-bit era and has shaped the action-platformer genre like no other – and even today, Metroidvanias
still extremely popular, and Hollow Knight: Silksong is even one of the most-requested games on Steam.
In the Castlevania Anniversary Collection, you experience all the vampire-hunting madness from a pixel perspective – including whips, iconic boss fights and a dark, eerie atmosphere that made the franchise famous.
This collection includes:
- Castlevania (1986)– the first adventure that started it all on the NES.
- Castlevania II: Simon’s Quest (1987) – a sequel that introduced RPG elements to the series and drove the Angry Video Game Nerd to despair.
- Castlevania III: Dracula’s Curse (1989) – the celebrated NES trilogy finale, with multiple alternate routes and playable characters.
- Super Castlevania IV (1991) – The SNES remake of the first game with improved mechanics and graphics.
- Castlevania: The Adventure (1989) – The first Game Boy title in the series.
- Castlevania II: Belmont’s Revenge (1991) – The sequel on the Game Boy.
- Castlevania: Bloodlines (1994) – The only Castlevania on the Sega Mega Drive.
- Kid Dracula (1990) – A humorous spin-off that was previously only available in Japan.
So you can play as various Belmonts and other vampire hunters to take down Count Dracula and his sinister minions once and for all.
