After the series being dormant for around 13 years, Konami says Castlevania: Belmont's Curse is only the beginning.

The new PlayStation State of Play gave us a declaration from Konami that it is ready to enter a Capcom-style redemption arc. Not only is Metal Gear Solid 4 finally escaping PS3 jail, Silent Hill Townfall re-emerged looking to continue the series' hot streak, and finally, after years of me talking about it before every Nintendo Direct, State of Play, Xbox Showcase, or Geoff Keighley event, Castlevania is finally returning, and to make it even sweeter, its being developed by Evil Empire of Dead Cells and The Rogue Prince of Persia fame with Dead Cells developer Motion Twin listed as the "advisory game studio".
