Hello everyone!

You all know how much Castlevania runs through the DNA of Dead Cells. It was our biggest inspiration, and the Return to Castlevania DLC was a dream come true for everyone involved.

Today, we are incredibly happy to announce that Evil Empire the studio that lovingly stewarded Dead Cells for years and added so much of the content you love has developed a brand new Castlevania game in partnership with KONAMI!

We have watched them work in the shadows on this project for years, pouring their hearts, souls, and significant dedication into this legendary franchise. Crafting the next chapter of the series is a massive achievement — GG à vous :)

Our Humble Contribution

While this is Evil Empire’s show, you might have seen our little red star at the beginning of the video? 🤔

It was a little secret, but we are pleased to mention that Motion Twin acted as an Advisory Game Studio on the project. We were honored to add our humble stone to thecastle structure, offering our picky feedback whenever they gave us a shout over the past years.

Please join us in congratulating Evil Empire and KONAMI on this announcement. (links should be up soon)
