In celebration of Metroid turning 30 in Japan, which originally released for the Famicom Disk System on 6 August 1986, we’ve made a list dedicated to “Metroidvanias”, that is, side-scrolling platform games inspired by Metroid and Castlevania.
10 years gone by without a new Castlevania title. Now that Konami is considering stuff other than Pachinko, this series deserves a new game.
It’s more than about time it’s way overdue. Please make a 2D Castlevania with item/armor/weapon collectibles and transmog as this is the one series my wife will play but it has to have item collecting or she will skip it.
Lords of shadow 1 was such an amazing game and they dropped the ball with the sequel
"What is a name? A miserable little pile of letters."
Seriously, the games in the From Software's Soulsborne series are the best 3D Castlevania games we will ever get. From Bloodborne to Elden Ring, Konami will never approach that level of quality and give Castlevania its due respect. EVER! "Enough talk, call yourself a Belmont in the Character Creator, HAVE AT YOU!" Without question.
As for a new 2D entry? I mean, sure, why not? What the hell, right? It's about damn time indeed.
I hate being that guy, but I think it’s, “What is a man? A miserable pile of secrets.”
Um, actually mine is the original line in the Script. But Konami, being Konami, decided to change it to "What is a man? A miserable 'little' pile of secrets." I know, they ruined it...
So, while I know you hate to be that guy, you still missed the "little" part. It happens.
And, yeah, I know. You're welcome.👍
I'm glad you enjoyed it. On the other hand, it seems like some ppl were so offended by my Line being so OP that they decided to side with Konami. But these are the same people that bought Contra: Rogue Corps Day One and convinced themselves it was the best Contra. So I take no offense.
It happens.
The Metroidvania genre has captivated gamers for decades! Discover the best Metroidvania games of all time.
blasphemous 1 for me.
i love the artstyle and how they didnt shy away from their imagery
but symphony of the night is also superb
Catlevanias GBA and DS games are the best! But there others that I like a lot such as Hollow Knight, Chasm etc
As much as I want Silksong, adding it to the BEST is a little premature. It's not even out yet.
During the Dead By Daylight Year 8 Anniversary event, it was revealed that a new collaboration with Castlevania is coming to the game.
Cool list even though I've only played two of the games on there.
