Snackgirls editor note
Red: “When the Castlevania name is paired with Evil Empire and Motion Twin, it is hard to ignore. Having the price and date listed also matters.”
AIKO: “Now that the Korean Steam date and KRW price have been confirmed, it is time to start thinking about which platform to wait for.”
Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse is listed on Korean Steam with a scheduled release date of October 14, 2026. The local listed price is ₩35,000. The Steam page lists KONAMI as publisher, with Evil Empire and Motion Twin involved as developers.
Gematsu reports that the Switch version will launch alongside the PS5, Xbox Series, and PC versions. The Korean Steam page shows October 14, while overseas reporting summarizes the release as October 15. Because dates can differ by region and time zone, it is worth checking the date on the store you plan to use before buying.
What can be treated as confirmed from this news
The most important points are the Korean KRW price and scheduled release date. Since the Korean Steam page lists the price at ₩35,000 and shows a scheduled release date of October 14, 2026, PC players now have a clear reference point for waiting.
Another point is the development lineup. Evil Empire and Motion Twin are teams with strong recognition in 2D action and roguelite action. That is also why this game stands out as a new exploration-focused 2D action title rather than a simple re-release.
What to check when choosing a platform
If you want to check the game quickly on PC, the Steam KRW price, system requirements, and controller support are the first things to look at. If handheld mode or console play matters more, it is better to compare the regional prices, preorder bonuses, and release-date listings for the Switch, Xbox, and PS5 versions separately.
In short, the bigger point in this Castlevania news is not only that the release date is getting closer, but that there is now a price tag that Korean players can compare directly. If you have been waiting for metroidvania and 2D action releases, this is one to place on the October new-release list.
