Netflix shared the two and half minutes long teaser trailer of the upcoming anime series Castlevania: Nocturne. The anime highlights Richter Belmont and features vampires in the French Revolution.
Castlevania: Nocturne premiers on Netflix on September 28. The series is led by showrunner Kevin Kolde and Creator/Writer Clive Bradley. Produced by Project 51 Productions with production services provided by Powerhouse Animation.
“The gory and gothic adventures of the Castlevania franchise continue with an exciting new setting and their highest stakes yet. A gripping story of love and loss, Nocturne marks an evolution to the original fan-favorite Castlevania Netflix Series. Featuring a never before seen origin story of Richter Belmont (gaming icon, and one of the Franchise’s most beloved characters).”
If you come from the previous anime adaptation of Castlevania, you might wonder who the protagonist is and where are the old heroes. Richter is a descendant of the Belmont family, popularized in the iconic Symphony of Night and Blood of Rondo Castlevania games. He looks like a perfect fusion of Sypha and Trevor, despite being removed from them by a few generations.
Stay tuned to find out more once more details are shared! While waiting for the release of Nocturne, it might be the time to re-watch the four seasons of Castlevania animated series to catch up with Alucard, Sypha, Trevor and the rest of characters again.
