Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse reviewed by Scott White on PlayStation 5, also available on PC, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch. "Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse brings Konami’s beloved series into the modern era with a fast-paced / action-focused adventure. Convenient map tracking tools, exciting combat, a great new hero, and movement tech that will test your reflexes all help this long-awaited sequel stand tall in what has since become a crowded genre. But Belmont’s Curse is a better metroidvania generally than it is a Castlevania specifically, sacrificing some of the series’ signature charm and feel along the way. Even still, I would not be upset to see developer Evil Empire’s name attached to another Castlevania game in the future. I just hope it doesn’t take another 18 years to arrive – I don’t think my reflexes will be up to the task when I hit my mid-50s."
