Curse of Darkness introduces players to an entirely new storyline and main character – Hector, one of two Devil Forgemasters, who had once refined his skills under Dracula. Told in true Castlevania style, this action-packed tale of betrayal and revenge takes players on a journey through an expansive world filled with formidable foes and beautifully rendered environments to the ruins of Dracula’s castle.

Disillusioned with the ideals of his mentor, Hector fled Vallachia to pursue a more normal life, leaving Dracula vulnerable to the Belmonts. Now, three years after Dracula was defeated in battle, the magic power of the curse released upon his death has infected all of Europe. As the continent succumbs to pestilence, heresy and mob violence, Isaac – a former friend and fellow Devil Forgemaster – suddenly appears. Believing their master’s death was a result of Hector’s betrayal, Isaac implicates his friend’s beloved in a deadly witch trial.

Fueled by revenge for the murder of his girlfriend, Hector sets off to confront the evil forces of the night. Armed with the powerful skill of Devil Forgery, he must find his way back to the ruins of
Dracula's castle and uncover an intricate web of deception, unaware of the sinister plan that has been orchestrated to lure him home.

Containing all-new gameplay features for the franchise, including the use of Innocent Devils, allies that will help conquer enemies, huge selection of powerful weapons, large and expansive game environments, wide variety of unique enemies and a majestic new soundtrack, Castlevania: Curse of Darkness will be the adventure game to meet all your needs during this Halloween season!
