The first Nintendo Switch screenshots for Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse are in, and depending on who you ask, this version of the game might be looking a little rough.
Pre-orders for the title started on the Nintendo eShop this week. That’s brought us six different images to look at, and this is actually the first time we’re seeing the Nintendo Switch version at all.
We’ll first mention that the project is still very much in development and the final version could improve. That said, the criticism right now surrounds the game’s resolution – things look a bit blurry. It does hurt that Konami isn’t releasing a Nintendo Switch 2 version as that could theoretically provided technical bumps.
Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse is a notable entry for the series as Konami decided to team up with Evil Empire on this one. The studio previously worked on Dead Cells and The Rogue Prince of Persia. Interestingly, The Rogue Prince of Persia did get a Nintendo Switch 2 version.
One thing that’s also confirmed is that Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse is targeting 30 frames per second on Nintendo Switch. On other platforms, it’s 60 FPS.
If you’re curious about the game, we have the following details:
