This year’s Triple-i Initiative showcase will provide exciting insights into numerous upcoming games, prominently featuring the highly anticipated “Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse.” Now in its third year, the event, scheduled for April 9th, promises an in-depth look at this new installment within the iconic Castlevania series.
Earlier in the year, a teaser for “Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse” was released, offering only a glimpse into the game. However, the Triple-i Initiative showcase is expected to deliver a comprehensive breakdown. The 45-minute stream will be fast-paced, packed with continuous game announcements without any superfluous content, focusing on indie game announcements, gameplay reveals, and release dates. Attendees can expect eight world premieres along with updates and trailers for various projects.
“Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse” stands out among the showcased titles, alongside exciting names like “Windrose” and “Dead as Disco.” The event is organized by Evil Empire, a studio collaborating with Motion Twin on the Castlevania project.
To catch the live showcase, you can visit the official YouTube channel on April 9th at 9 am PDT/6 pm CEST.
### More on Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse
Scheduled for a 2026 release, “Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse” will be available on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Switch, and PC. The game is a 2D side-scrolling action adventure with a classic metroidvania structure. Set in Paris in 1499, players will use the Belmont whip to explore a semi-open map.
This title marks a significant revival for the Castlevania franchise, which has seen few mainline games in the past decade. Positioned two decades after “Castlevania III: Dracula’s Curse” and the recent animated series, the game is a major release from Konami, the original publisher and developer of the series.
