Konami Memorial NFT is a new initiative to share content that has been loved by players all over the world, for many years. As the company’s first project in this area and with NFTs and blockchain technology in its infancy, KONAMI will continue to explore new developments and listen to player feedback following this initial collection.
In recognition of 35 years of whip-cracking and vampire slaying, Konami has recently released Castlevania Advance Collection for PC and consoles, featuring three classic Game Boy Advance titles, and Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls, an action-packed deep dive through stories past, for Apple Arcade.
Looking to the future of the Castlevania series, we will continue to support the titles currently available, while also assessing new opportunities for titles that will meet and exceed player expectations.
